Pets not allowed
Welcome to our cottage (48 square meters), located in the woods in our garden. The decor is simple but cozy, and there’s a wood stove. On a summer evening, you can enjoy the view of the beautiful Hogeland from the patio. The cottage has two bedrooms, each with a double bed. The bathroom is equipped with a shower and toilet. Don’t worry about unwanted insects: all windows are fitted with sturdy screens. There’s a private parking spot for a car, and bicycles can be safely stored in the bike shed. The local bus stops just 200 meters away. We recommend booking the cottage for a maximum of two adults (plus one or two children, if applicable), as the interior spaces are small and hot water (due to the heat pump water heater) is limited.
Nature and surroundings
From the nature house, you step right into Groningen’s natural surroundings. The Broeksterkleiweg turns into quiet bike paths and is accessible only to local traffic. Explore the area via the many beautiful bike routes that start right from your front door. The cottage borders the Broekstermaar, ideal for a peaceful canoe trip. Canoes can be rented in nearby Wehe-Den-Hoorn (3 km). Here you’ll also find the Waddenfun Adventure Park, or pay a visit to the “De Ploeg” Arts Center for a dose of culture. Just a 15-minute bike ride away is the seawall, where you can enjoy sweeping views of the mudflats. From Pieterburen, you can go mudflat walking or start the Pieterpad trail. In Leens (6 km), the Borg Verhildersum and the DoeZoo are highly recommended. This village also has an outdoor swimming pool. By car, you can reach Lauwersoog in 15 minutes. Here, you can visit the seals, enjoy the national park, or take the ferry to Schiermonnikoog.

The cottage was clean, cozy, fully equipped, and peaceful. The hosts were very friendly.
Het huisje was schoon, knus, compleet voorzien en rustgevend. De gastvrouw en gastheer waren heel vriendelijk.
The vastness of the landscape, the beautiful light, and the stunning cloud formations were truly special for us, as people from Brabant. So were the charming mound villages and the unique architecture of the farms and homes.
The seafood restaurant Het Ailand on the harbor quay in Lauwersroog is highly recommended—as is this little cottage, for that matter.De weidsheid van het landschap, het prachtige licht en de mooie wolkenpartijen waren voor ons Brabanders heel bijzonder. Net als de mooie wierdedorpjes en de heel eigen architectuur van de boerderijen en woonhuizen.
Het visrestaurant het Ailand op de havenkade van Lauwersroog is een aanrader, net als dit huisje overigens.This text is automatically translated. -

Just a very nice cottage in a beautiful place. You just have to bring a sunny disposition, the rest is already there. And very nice hosts. Unfortunately, Pentecost was over again, because we all would have liked to stay longer.
Gewoon een heel fijn huisje op een prachtig plekje. Je hoeft alleen maar een zonnig karakter mee te nemen, de rest is er al. En heel aardige gastheer en -vrouw.
Helaas was Pinksteren weer voorbij, want we hadden allemaal langer willen blijven.A very beautiful place, where a lot of birds could be heard and seen.
Een hele mooie plek, waar heel veel vogels te horen en te zien waren.

We are B&B holders ourselves and therefore looked at the furnishings with different eyes. Here a few points from a long list: the lighting was poor, there were no bedside tables, the outlets were all extended with an extension box. No closet space and hangers. TV hidden in chest. Messy dishes: no glass was the same. The hems of the curtains were pasted and not nicely finished. (I would have liked to do this if I had a sewing machine) At the kitchen faucet, hot and cold water were reversed. Outside there was little sun due to the many trees and bushes. The microwave was too high and the refrigerator too low. Well, I'll leave it at that. We did have nice days, despite the issues we encountered. We did not see the manager again, but we left a bill with our most important findings.
Wij zijn zelf B&B houders en keken daarom met andere ogen naar de inrichting. Hier een paar puntjes van een lang lijst: de verlichting was slecht, er waren geen nachtkastjes, de stopcontacten werden allemaal verlengd met een verlengdoos. Geen kastruimte en kleerhangers. TV verstopt in kist. Rommelig servies: geen glas was gelijk. De zomen van de gordijnen waren geplakt en niet mooi afgewerkt. (had ik wel even willen doen als ik een naaimachine had) Bij de keukenkraan waren warm en koud water omgedraaid. Buiten was er weinig zon door de vele bomen en struiken. De magnetron ston dte hoog en de koelkast te laag.
Nou, hier laat ik het bij. Wij hebben wel fijne dagen gehad, ondanks de zaken die wij tegen kwamen. De beheerder hebben wij niet meer gezien, maar we hebben een briefje neer gelegd met onze belangrijkste bevinden.We had a lovely peaceful weekend. The cottage was just new and we were the second guests.
Wij hebben een heerlijk rustig weekendje gehad. Het huisje was net nieuw en wij waren de tweede gasten.
