Pets not allowed
This cabin is located on a small-scale regenerative community farm in Gelderland, in the heart of a thriving food landscape. You’ll wake up to views of herb fields and vegetable gardens, and discover how agriculture and nature reinforce each other. It’s the ideal place to slow down and reconnect with the origins of our food. The cabin offers a stylish, cozy retreat for 2 to 4 people, with comfortable queen-size beds and a wood stove (firewood is provided). Minimalist yet complete: a private shower and toilet with biodegradable products and USB ports for charging. There’s no Wi-Fi, so you can focus entirely on nature and each other. You’ll sleep, relax, and cook right where your food is grown. Items such as olive oil, herbs, coffee/tea, and a percolator are provided. There’s also a fully equipped kitchen. You can round out your stay by booking a local meal package directly from the farmer.
Nature and surroundings
The location offers the perfect connection between people and nature, with the Veluwe and the historic Hanseatic city of Zutphen just around the corner. While staying in the serene silence of the countryside, you can seek out the tranquility of the vast Veluwe forests or explore the lively atmosphere of Zutphen’s narrow streets and the IJsselkade. A night here is an invitation to experience farm life up close—a new form of hospitality that reconnects you with the land. By staying here, you directly contribute to the future of this landscape, as a portion of the proceeds goes directly to the farmers and nature restoration efforts. You’ll not only return home feeling fulfilled, but also with a new perspective on the world around you.

A perfect place to recharge, reconnect with yourself, and get in touch with nature!
Een perfecte plek om op te laden, weet in contact te komen met jezelf en de natuur!
Our nature house looked out over a pasture with cows—it was wonderfully peaceful. The house was fully equipped. It was especially nice that everything was made from sustainable materials. And that the products you can use are also tox-free. You hardly ever come across that anywhere! Communication wasn’t entirely smooth. We were told via chat that the farm shop would be open for us between 4:00 and 5:00 p.m. But the farmers on site were a bit surprised by that. In the end, we did get some vegetables from the farm to take with us, so it was resolved just fine.
Ons natuurhuisje keek uit over ee weiland met koeien, heerlijk rustgevend. Het huisje was van alle gemakken voorzien. Extra fijn dat alles van duurzame materialen is gemaakt. En dat de producten die je kunt gebruiken ook tox-free zijn. Dat kom je vrijwel nergens tegen! De communicatie verliep niet helemaal vlekkeloos. Via de chat werd ons verteld dat de boederijwinkel tussen 16-17u voor ons geopend zou zijn. Maar daar waren de aanwezige boeren een beetje door verrast. Uiteindelijk kregen we wel wat groente van het land mee, dus dat werd goed opgelost.
