Welcome to this special, unique, and charming cottage (Dec. 2024), located near Dwingelderveld National Park and close to Drents-Friese Wold National Park. This cottage offers the ideal setting for a wonderful stay surrounded by nature, where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and completely unwind. The architect-designed cottage (architect Nynke-Rixt Jukema), spread over three floors, has been furnished with care and taste, and its playful layout offers a unique sense of space. There are three compact bedrooms: 2 double beds (160x200) and a bunk bed (80x200), 2 bathrooms, and 2 toilets, ensuring plenty of privacy and comfort for (young) families or active travelers seeking peace and quiet. The cottage is modern and comfortably equipped: underfloor heating throughout, a covered bike charging station, a Jotul wood stove, a Smart TV with fast streaming, and parking right outside the door. You’ll experience peace, comfort, and a sense of creativity: DWAALSTERREN

Nature and surroundings

The cottage is playfully situated on one of the two hills and invites you to enjoy the nature around you, both indoors and outdoors. From the living room on the top floor, you’ll have a view not only of the forest (where you might spot deer) but also of the Terhorsterzand/Dwingelderveld nature reserve. Here you’ll find heathlands, forests, ponds, and small lakes where you can enjoy plenty of hiking, biking, and swimming. You can relax in the morning sun on the terrace and in the evening under the porch. On quiet nights, you can truly experience the darkness here and gaze at the stars. A shared, simply heated swimming pool (open in June, July, and August; free for campground guests) is a 300-meter walk away. On a private property at the end of a dead-end road, bordering woods and heathland, there are about 12 different cottages. For more information, search for: Dwaalsterren. A cottage with a WOW factor!

    This is a beautiful, spacious home. It was built to an architect’s design, and every detail has been carefully considered.
    No corners were cut on materials, which gives the home a luxurious feel.
    The layout has also been carefully considered, giving the interior a serene atmosphere. The quality of the tableware is also above expectations.
    It’s just odd that in such a beautiful house, there’s hardly any closet space in the bedrooms.
    There is plenty of space around the house. The house is not located on the Dwingeloërveld, but on the other side of the highway.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    We had a wonderful time there.

You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
