Nature house in Orvelte
Drenthe, Netherlands

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 find sunshine 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 features a dishwasher, refrigerator, induction cooktop, and combination microwave. Next to it is the bathroom with a rain shower, separate toilet, and sink. SPECIAL CHRISTMAS PACKAGE from December 24 and 26. Want to know more? Just send us a message!
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 drifting sand, heathland, and Highland cattle. The Drentse Aa Nature Park is just across the way, and the Elperstroom area—a Natura 2000 site—is just a stone’s throw away. So you’ll definitely be able to enjoy nature to the fullest! In our area, you’ll also find plenty of other charming Drenthe villages. Several 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 that are just a 5-minute drive away.

Wonderfully simple, yet fully equipped. There’s a nice, warm atmosphere in the cottage.
Heerlijk basic maar wel van alle gemakken voorzien. Er hangt een fijne warme sfeer in het huisje
It was a lovely little cottage with all the amenities you could want when you just want to do absolutely nothing. Beautiful surroundings where you can enjoy a nice walk with the dog—in our case, at least.
Het was een heerlijk huisje van alle gemakken voorzien als je even helemaal niks wilt. mooie omgeving waar je heerlijk kunt wandelen met de hond in ons geval

Simple decor, clean—and despite being a B&B and a very small campground (4 sites), the whole place has a very relaxed vibe.
Eenvoudige inrichting, schoon, ondanks de BenB en zeer kleine camping (4 plekjes) komt alles heel relaxed over.
Welcoming, in a quiet location,
Gastvrij, rustig gelegen,

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!
