Pets not allowed
Located on the edge of a 120-hectare nature reserve in the Achterhoek region, this stylishly furnished cottage sits on the edge of a food forest along a dead-end road. When you look outside, you’ll feel like you’re in the middle of paradise. We do our best to ensure that the birds are fed every day of your stay so that you can always see forest birds. Squirrels, hares, and hedgehogs also wander right through the garden. The cottage is simple but comfortable. It features a bathroom with a shower and toilet, a kitchen, a small bedroom (watch out for the authentic low doorframe!), and a spacious living room with three large windows offering views of nothing but nature. Two additional guests are welcome if they bring their own tent, sleeping pad, and bedding. You can easily lock your bike away in the wooden shed, which also has a charging station. In August and September 2026, we won’t be charging the high-season rate because we’re still waiting for the contractor to reseal the bathroom. There will be motocross races on September 12–13 and November 8, 2026.
Nature and surroundings
The cottage is located on a road that is closed to motorized traffic further down and leads to 120 hectares of the Achterhoek nature reserve. Don’t expect complete silence: Although you’ll enjoy complete privacy, you’ll be able to hear sounds from our family with children. There’s a motocross track nearby with practice sessions on Wednesdays in the summer and on Saturdays in the winter. You can also hear traffic on the N18 from outside. If you’d like to see more than just the birds in the garden, a 100-meter walk will take you into the Vennebulten forest, which further on transitions into a small stretch of heathland, next to the Zwarte Veen and, beyond that, the Aaltense Goor. A paradise for every nature lover and especially for birdwatchers. There are also mountain bike trails throughout this area, and the entire Achterhoek region is full of beautiful cycling routes, many of which are easily accessible from our spot. Additionally, it’s a 600-meter walk to Restaurant de Radstake and the bus stop. There is plenty of parking available at the cottage.
