Nature house in Oude Willem
Drenthe, Netherlands
- 4 persons

Where the nights are still dark, where you can still wander endlessly in nature on your bike, walking, running or otherwise.... Lies our lovely (almost) forest cottage. We rent our 4 person cottage on a small campsite, where all necessary facilities are available. Think of a swimming pool, laundry, restaurant, takeaway service, reception, playgrounds and entertainment in season or with special holidays. The cottage is comfortably furnished with 2 bedrooms, 1 double bed (160x200) and 2 single beds. The beds are made. There is ample closet space in both bedrooms. There is a bathroom with shower, sink and toilet In the cottage there is also a spacious kitchen where you are fully equipped. There is a living room with a spacious seating area at both the living room area and the dining area. Outside there is a large (partially) covered veranda with a large seating area, and in the garden there is a picnic bench. You are guaranteed to enjoy your peace and quiet here!
Nature and surroundings
The cottage is located near a hamlet called Oude Willem. This place lies between Diever and Appelscha, both are also very easily accessible by bicycle or car. The environment is very natural, you are in the middle of the Drents Friese Wold. At the entrance of the campsite there are cycling and walking routes that will lead you through the entire nature park. There is a great variety of nature, think of forests, lakes but also large sandy plains ("Kale Dunes"). In the vicinity, in addition to nature, there is also plenty of culture to experience, think of the Veenkoloniën, Shakespeare theater in Diever, Giethoorn, villages like Diever, Dwingeloo, Frederiksoord. If you come with children there is also plenty to do as the experience path in Hoogersmilde (2km from the campsite), the climbing forest in Appelscha or eg the large playground "the Drentse Koe" There is plenty to see and do!

The bed is way too small and doesn't fit in the room; it's very cramped. The mandatory cleaning fee is way too expensive if you're only staying one night. The heater is very awkward to use.
Veel te klein bed dat niet past in de kamer, erg krap. Veel te dure verplichte schoonmaak als je maar 1 nacht blijft. Kachel erg onhandig.
Way too expensive for what you get, and it’s not clear when booking that it’s a mobile home.
Landlord’s response:
Dear Guest, We’re sorry to hear that you rated our cottage differently than all our other guests. To address your feedback: The beds are appropriately sized for the rooms; they are meant to be placed this way (you can still stand next to them or walk around them), The stove can be turned on and off with a single button; there are also separate electric heaters available for guests who prefer to use them instead of the pellet stove. Perhaps you would have preferred to use those?
As you can see from the photos in our listing, our cottage is a mobile home; we regret that you may not have noticed this. Regarding the cleaning fee: unfortunately, for less than 45 euros, I cannot keep our cottage spotless, wash the linens/towels, etc., make the beds, and do an extra thorough cleaning after the arrival of a pet or pets. We appreciate your understanding.Veel te duur voor wat je krijgt, het is bij het boeken ook niet duidelijk dat het om een sta caravan gaat.
Reactie verhuurder:
Beste Gast, Wat vervelend dat u ons huisje anders beoordeeld dan al onze andere gasten. Om even in te gaan op uw feedback: De bedden zijn passend voor de ruimtes, deze horen er zo in te staan (u kunt er nog naast staan of omheen lopen), De kachel is aan en uit te schakelen adhv 1 knopje, er staan tevens losse elektrische kachels klaar voor de gasten die liever deze gebruiken ipv de pelletkachel. Wellicht had u liever deze willen gebruiken?
Aan de hand van de foto's in ons advertentie kunt u zien dat ons huisje om een stacaravan betreft, wij betreuren het dat u dat wellicht niet opgevallen is. Wat betreft de schoonmaakkosten: voor minder dan 45 euro kan ik helaas niet ons huisje op en top schoonhouden, het beddengoed/handdoeken etc wassen, de bedden opmaken en extra goed schoonmaken na komst van huisdier(en). Wij rekenen op uw begrip.This text is automatically translated. -

Camping where the cottage is located is very nice and nearby many villages and very beautiful nature for hiking.Landlord is super friendly and easily accessible, cottage is cozy and very comfortable!
Camping waar het huisje opstaat is heel leuk en in de buurt veel dorpjes en erg mooie natuur om te wandelen.
Verhuurder is super vriendelijk en goed bereikbaar, huisje is gezellig ingericht en heel comfortabel!Very cozy cottage, fully equipped! Four of us stayed for a hiking weekend. The area and the cottage lend themselves perfectly to this.
Heel gezellig huisje, van alle gemakken voorzien! Wij zijn met vier verbleven voor een wandelweekend. De omgeving en het huisje lenen zich daar perfect voor.

Really super satisfied! Worth repeating.
Echt super tevreden! Voor herhaling vatbaar.
Super nice cottage! The contact with the owner was also very nice and we felt very welcome. We really enjoyed intensely even though our stay was short. I will definitely come here again and stay longer!
Super mooi huisje! Het contact met de eigenaar was ook erg fijn en we voelde ons erg welkom. We hebben echt intens genoten ook al was ons verblijf van korte duur. Ik ga hier sowieso nog een keer heen en blijf dan langer!
