Our cottage is on the edge of the forest, overlooking an open field. How nice to spot wildlife early in the morning from the veranda.The wooden house, a double chalet, has just been renovated so that it is spacious, modern and open but then the bedsteads make it nice and cosy. Yet even the bedsteads are spacious and comfortable with both a 1.60x 2x 2.20 m bed and a window for visibility, light and air. It is equipped for 4 to a maximum of 6 people. The owners use the house as a studio. The materials for painting, drawing, modeling and printing etc may also be used by the tenants.

The information on the website regarding the 3 bedrooms that weren't there.
De info op de site mbt de 3 slaapkamers die er niet waren.
A charming little house, clearly owned by creative people. We found the atmosphere very cozy. Everything you needed was there, including the kitchen essentials. There was a lovely covered porch in the back that gave you plenty of privacy. Lots of birds, insects, hedgehogs, and squirrels in the garden!
In hindsight, I found the “3 bedrooms” description unclear and confusing, because there weren’t actually 3 bedrooms. The sleeper sofa was in the living room. You might have been able to figure that out, but I think it should be changed to “2 bedrooms” for clarity and to match the search results on the site.Leuk huisje, duidelijk eigendom van creatieve eigenaren. Wij vonden het een gezellige sfeer. Alles wat je nodig had, was er, inclusief de basics in de keuken. Heerlijke overdekte veranda aan de achterkant zodat je alle privacy had. Veel vogels, insecten, egeltjes en eekhoorns in de tuin!
Vond alleen achteraf de omschrijving 3 slaapkamers niet duidelijk en verwarrend, want er waren geen 3 slaapkamers. De slaapbank stond in de woonkamer. Nu had je dat misschien kunnen weten, maar denk dat dat veranderd moet worden naar 2 slaapkamers voor de duidelijkheid en de zoektocht die je geeft op de site.This text is automatically translated. -

It was a shame that the power wasn't stable.
Het was jammer dat stroom niet stabiel was.
It felt like you were right in the middle of nature; the cool shade of the trees and the birds—especially the woodpecker—made the scene complete.
Je had het gevoel midden in de natuur te zitten, de koelte van de bomen en de vogels, vooral de specht maakte dat beeld compleet.

Great!!
Fijn!!
A lovely little cottage right on the edge of a small campground. In the backyard (which is a bit overgrown) there’s a covered area with a comfortable couch and table where you can relax. It’s super quiet there, and you can really enjoy watching the birds. The cottage is well-equipped, though there’s very little space for your clothes.
The beds are in alcoves separated from the rest of the room by a curtain. There were just the two of us, and it felt comfortable.
Deventer and Zutphen are both within biking distance, and the area around Gorssel is beautiful for biking and hiking. Gorssel is a charming little town with a museum that’s definitely worth a visit.
The arts and crafts supplies available for use are a really nice touch.
Be sure to bring mosquito repellent, though, since you’re right in the middle of nature.Heerlijk huisje helemaal aan de rand van een kleine camping. In de tuin aan de achterkant (wel wat verwilderd) is een overkapping met een relaxte bank + tafel waar je fijn kunt zitten. Het is er super rustig en je kunt volop genieten van de vogeltjes. Huisje is prima uitgerust, alleen erg weinig plek voor je kleding.
De bedden zijn in een soort nissen die met een gordijn van de rest afgescheiden zijn. Wij waren er met z'n tweeën en dat voelde comfortabel.
Deventer en Zutphen zijn beiden op fietsafstand en de omgeving rondom Gorssel is prachtig om te fietsen/wandelen. Gorssel is een leuk plaatsje met een museum dat absoluut de moeite waard is.
De knutsel/creatieve spullen die gebruikt mogen worden zijn een hele leuke toevoeging.
Wel muggenspray mee, want je zit midden in de natuur.This text is automatically translated.
