A beautifully renovated vacation cottage for 2 people. The kitchen and bathroom have just been renovated and are brand new! The living room features a wood stove and a gas heater, with views of the forest on all sides. Cozy dining area. Enjoy sitting outside on both the south- and north-facing terraces. Or relax indoors by the wood stove, curled up with a book in total silence. Perfect for those who want to unwind and find peace and quiet. Set in the woods on over two hectares of land. Enjoy the peace and quiet, the sounds of birds, and the roe deer that regularly pass by on the wildlife crossing. They also frequently visit the mineral lick, which you can see right from your chair.
Nature and surroundings
The nature house is situated on three hectares of mixed forest, which serves as a habitat for many bird species (nearly 70 species have been spotted). It’s a true paradise for birdwatchers. Roe deer regularly pass by the house along very old game trails. The surroundings are beautiful, with many hiking and biking trails. A 10-minute bike ride takes you to Aalten, where the market area is a pleasant place to spend some time. You can even dine at a Michelin-starred restaurant. The National Hiding Place Museum is also well worth a visit. Just across the border, explore the town of Bocholt with its charming shops and markets. Also nearby is the picturesque town of Bredevoort, known as “Bredevoort, City of Books.” Winterswijk, with its vibrant shopping center and historic buildings, is also worth a visit. The rich bocage landscape—for which the Achterhoek region is famous—with its stunning views will amaze you! In short, come explore our region soon and enjoy yourself!

We received a very warm welcome. A small gift was waiting for us inside. The cottage has everything you need for a pleasant stay. Since we didn’t need any firewood, the cost was deducted from our bill on the day of departure.
The surrounding area is ideal for beautiful bike rides and hikes.We zijn heel gastvrij ontvangen. Binnen stond een kleine attentie voor ons klaar. Het huisje heeft alles wat je nodig hebt voor een prettig verblijf. Omdat we geen haardhout nodig hadden werd het bedrag op de vertrekdag meteen verrekend.
De omgeving leent zich bij uitstek voor mooie fiets- en wandeltochten.Here, you can truly experience PEACE, SPACE, and NATURE in a big way.
The cottage is surrounded by woods teeming with squirrels and all kinds of birds, and you have a view of a salt lick further into the woods where deer may come to drink.RUST, RUIMTE en NATUUR kun je hier met hoofdletters ervaren.
Het huisje is omgeven door bos met daarin eekhoorntjes en allerlei vogelsoorten en je kijkt op een liksteen die verderop in het bos staat waar herten op af kunnen komen.This text is automatically translated. -

The cottage itself is nice and cozy without feeling old-fashioned - you won't lack anything. I imagine that because of the single glass it can be rather chilly in the winter months, but I can't comment on this. In any case, heaters are available. The luxurious bathroom has a spacious shower and toilet, and the kitchen is equipped with induction hob and dishwasher. In the bedroom, the two single beds can be easily pushed together and all windows can be darkened - very nice! Only criticism: charging €16 for firewood that was never touched on a 30-degree weekend feels a bit unfair. Optional like a minibar, would make more sense to me.
Het huisje zelf is mooi en knus ingericht zonder ouderwets aan te voelen - je komt niets tekort. Ik kan me voorstellen dat het vanwege het enkel glas nogal fris kan zijn in de wintermaanden, maar hier kan ik geen uitspraak over doen. Kachels zijn in ieder geval aanwezig. De luxe badkamer beschikt over een ruime douche en toilet en de keuken is voorzien van inductieplaat en vaatwasser. In de slaapkamer kunnen de twee eenpersoonsbedden gemakkelijk aan elkaar geschoven worden en alle ramen kunnen worden verduisterd - heel fijn!
Enige punt van kritiek: €16 in rekening brengen voor haardhout dat in een weekend van 30 graden nooit is aangeraakt, voelt wat oneerlijk. Optioneel zoals een minibar, zou mijns inziens logischer zijn.We were kindly received at the Kieftshutte which is wonderfully secluded in the woods where the peace and quiet can really be felt. It is located in a large forest area so you are not bothered by anyone and you feel completely alone. There is a small road next to it, but this hardly bothers you. The many different birds can be heard loudly during the day!
We werden vriendelijk ontvangen in de Kieftshutte die heerlijk afgelegen in de bossen ligt en waar de rust en stilte werkelijk voelbaar zijn. Het ligt op een groot bosterrein waardoor je van niemand last hebt en je je volledig alleen voelt. Er ligt een kleine weg naast, maar hier heb je nauwelijks last van. De vele verschillende vogels laten zich overdag luidkeels horen!
