This detached cottage with its own entrance is located on our property in the countryside outside Orvelte. It’s wonderfully secluded and peaceful—a place where the nights are still truly dark, it can be genuinely quiet, and nature and the forest are right across the way. It features a 40-square-meter living/sleeping area with a wood stove, a comfortable sofa, a dining table, and a lovely, peaceful, and natural atmosphere. Double French doors open onto the patio, garden, and hammock. You’ll enjoy the sun here all afternoon. You can close the linen curtains around the bed to create a cozy sleeping area. Through the connecting door, you’ll enter the kitchen, which is equipped with a dishwasher, refrigerator, induction cooktop, and combination microwave. Next to it is the bathroom with a rain shower, separate toilet, and sink.
Nature and surroundings
This vacation home is located right between and adjacent to two large forest districts, the Sleen and Schoonloo Forest Districts, which in turn border the Grolloo Forest District, which itself borders other forest districts. It also borders the Orvelterzand, a beautiful nature reserve featuring patches of open shifting sand dunes, heathland, and Highland cattle. The Drentse Aa Nature Park is right across the way, and the Elperstroom area—a Natura 2000 site—is just a stone’s throw away. So you’re all set for a great nature experience! In our area, you’ll also find plenty of other charming Drenthe villages. Various authentic Drenthe villages are worth a visit, such as the (museum village) Orvelte, Grolloo (home of Cuby & the Blizards), and Borger (Hunebedcentrum). And there are many other villages within a 30-minute drive that are well worth the trip. There are several beautiful swimming lakes in the woods, all within a 5-minute drive.

It was super, just wasn't clear from the ad that you share the grounds with others. There are rooms for B&B next to the cottage and 4 super nice spots for campers.
Het was super, alleen was uit de advertentie niet duidelijk dat je het terrein deelt met anderen. Er zijn naast het huisje kamers voor B&B en er zijn 4 superleuke plekken voor kampeerders.
Incredibly cozy cottage with all the trimmings. Sweet nice host!
Ontzettend knus huisje met alles erop en eraan. Lieve aardige host!

Nice spacious, fresh, nice environment, nice hostess.
Mooi ruim, fris, fijne omgeving, leuke gastvrouw.
What a lovely cottage in a very nice location. Upon arrival we were kindly received and given a short tour. We were guests with dog and have made beautiful walks from the cottage, but also in the vicinity was plenty to do. The cottage itself is spacious, a super nice bed and on the couch in front of the doors you can sit.
Wat een heerlijke huisje op een hele fijne locatie. Bij aankomst zijn we vriendelijk ontvangen en kregen we een korte rondleiding. Wij waren te gast met hond en hebben mooie wandelingen gemaakt vanuit het huisje, maar ook in de nabije omgeving was genoeg te beleven. Het huisje zelf is ruim, een super fijn bed en op de bank voor de openslaande deuren kun je heerlijk zitten.
