Nature and surroundings

The cottage is playfully placed on one of the two hills and invites you to enjoy the nature around you, both inside and outside. From the living room on the top floor, you not only have a view of forest (spot deer) but also over the nature reserve Terhorsterzand/Dwingelderveld. Here are moors, forests, fens and lakes where plenty of walking, cycling and swimming can be enjoyed. Enjoy the sun on the terrace in the morning and in the evening under the porch. In the quiet nights here you can still really experience the darkness and discover the stars. A shared simple heated swimming pool (open in June, July and August, free/camping) is 300 meters walking distance. On a cul-de-sac, bordering forest and heath, there are about 12 different cottages on private property. We also have our own website Wandering Stars Fancy a late check-out until 6 p.m.? For €75 (low)/€100 euro high season: on request. Please note The Passion is April 2 in Dwingeloo.

    Not completely silent but certainly quiet, for our purposes a 10 out of 10

    Beautiful cottage, with great care and attention to detail this cottage was made. Great communication with the landlord made it complete. We were particularly charmed by the construction and finish!

    It is a great cottage. We have never been anywhere where everything is so complete and in such good order. Really everything has been thought about. What we especially appreciated was the suitability of the cottage for small children. The stair gate and the washing machine are really top in that respect. There is a nice playground around the corner and the area itself is quiet enough that your child can play nicely. The owners are super nice to contact. We will definitely come back. One mini thing why it is not a ten: for our taste the bed was a little hard.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Beautiful location! You walk straight to the moors, it's lovely and dark and we even saw a viper next to the cottage!

What does “contactless stay” mean?
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.
Selection of activities
After each stay, we invite our guests to rate the nature house, the surroundings, and specific activities. An activity is only shown at a nature house if it meets two conditions: at least 20 unique reviews have been given, and at least 60% of guests gave a score of ‘amazing’ (3/4) or ‘wow’ (4/4).
