Lots of nature and birds to observe in the garden and the surroundings (nature reserve). Really recommended for those who like to walk and want to relax. Nice next to the stove or outside, we simply enjoyed our 3 days and will be happy to come back. Contact with the owner was also smooth, easy and very hospitable. In short, a very nice stay!."

You can also walk into the forest with the dog. The silence in the park was soothing for city people. Wonderfully quiet, a real place for relaxation. The garden of the cottage is phenomenal. Squirrels run back and forth to collect peanuts and walnuts that you brought with you for their winter supplies. The facilities in the cottage were more than expected. The owner sent a warm welcome email and there was also a welcome surprise. In short, it was a great experience." Ans & Ton, Google Maps “A Fantastic Stay in a Beautiful Forest Cottage.

  • About Us | Forest Cabins Drenthe | Unwinding in the Nature of Drenthe

    Forest cabins in Drenthe offering peace, nature, and comfort. Unwind in charming, sustainably furnished cabins with an eye for detail. Perfect for a weekend break, holiday, or workation. Warm hospitality by Karlien & Pascal. About us In March 2020 - the first lockdown - we came to the Drents-Friese Wold for the first time and were immediately enchanted by the beautiful nature and tranquility What a wonderful environment to catch your breath. And we like to offer that to others: slowing down, space for relaxation, making memories together and a place where new ideas arise. A house where you feel welcome, the little details have been taken into account so that you can relax. With an eye for the environment: natural materials where possible. We live in a city (The Hague) and both work mainly with our heads. Pascal as (IT) manager and Karlien as Customer Experience Expert. The variation with the care for guests, the houses and gardens (hands on) works very well for us. 1 house became 2, 3 and then there were 6. Of course not all at once, there was a lot involved and the combination of the two of us makes it complete. Our goal besides offering guests a nice place is to maintain and further develop the houses and gardens: we tackle a few things every year that are either necessary or really an addition. We like to work together with local entrepreneurs such as WaST Westerveld and Hoveniersbedrijf Benthum. To the forest houses
