We do not charge for dogs. In order to continue doing this, we ask guests with dog(s) to leave the house as good as hair-free and to check the garden before departure. There is a vacuum cleaner available. Handy to bring a blanket for the dog and old towels for the possible muddy paws 😉. The houses are cleaned extra well.

There is a sturdy sheep net available of 90 cm high and 25 meters long with sturdy double pins to cordon off the terrace from the house. Bring your own long line and attach it to a tree can also work well.

• The Eco Bosvilla Wateren is not fenced. There is a sheep net available of approx. 40 meters long and 90 cm high with a sturdy double pin from Voss to fence off part of the garden. Bring your own long line and attach it to a tree can also work well.

• No parties or loud talking in the garden after 10pm

• Guests leave the house as they found it

• If something is broken or damaged, please report it to us before departure so that we can resolve it quickly.

• Dogs: Guests with dogs must check the house and garden thoroughly before departure, so that guests do not know afterwards that dogs have been there: hair-free and garden checked. This way we can continue to receive dogs free of charge. Dogs are not allowed in the bedrooms. If your dog jumps on the couch, bring plaids and possibly old towels for the muddy paws.

• Charging cars is reported in advance and settled afterwards. Charger is 220V and via a normal socket. Not fast but handy for a night. Rate 35 cents per KWH (we pay that to Essent). At the Eco Bosvilla this is not necessary, there is a charging station.

• Excessive gas consumption by leaving the heating on unnecessarily will be settled afterwards. For this we look at the average consumption of guests in certain periods and the temperature outside.

As long as this goes well, we do not charge a deposit.

Boshuisje Doldersum and Oude Willem have down duvets, the other houses have synthetic ones.
