Nature and surroundings

We—Frank, Dani, and our little dog Bella—know how hard it is to go on vacation with a dog. There aren’t many places to rent, and you often have to pay extra for your dog(s). At our place, dogs are part of the family and can stay for free. They’re also welcome on the couch (please put a blanket down first—we provide them too) and can snuggle up next to you, just like at home. There are plenty of off-leash areas and dog-friendly beaches nearby, perfect for long walks and “water lovers.” We live here on peatland, which is a unique landscape, beautiful in every season. If you’d like to go cycling here, you’ll find a (flat) paradise with 1,200 km of bike paths. And for those seeking a spiritual experience: there are no fewer than 10 (!) dolmens to discover in the area. Another appealing aspect is that Germany is just a stone’s throw away. Filling up on gas and doing your grocery shopping on the cheap will already pay for part of your vacation.

    It was just awesome!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The cottage is beautiful and fully equipped, clean, spacious, and has a garden where the dogs could run around freely. There were blankets to put on the couch so the dogs could sit there, and there were dog treats, and we were able to have coffee right away. Breakfast was delicious too, and they provided takeout containers so we could pack some food for lunch. We went grocery shopping in Germany, visited Orvelte, and, of course, went for walks. The owner even joined us for a walk with the dog one evening and made us feel right at home—it was fantastic! A warm welcome and they have hearts of gold—definitely highly recommended!!!!!!

    Dani gave us a very warm and friendly welcome to the spacious, cozy, and clean cottage with a large, fenced-in yard where our dog could run around to his heart’s content.
    About a 10-minute drive away is a nature reserve where you can enjoy a nice walk and where our dog really let loose in the water and sand and had a wonderful time running free. He had the time of his life. And we were able to recharge our batteries. Definitely worth repeating!

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    A lovely, spacious garden. And plenty of nature nearby for nice walks. You do have to drive everywhere, though.
