    We had a wonderful time in the cottages. We booked them through Natuurhuisje. It’s really nice to be with a group and spend a weekend together while still having your own little space—even though we were all close by. The cottages are well-maintained and were even a bit more luxurious than we had expected. On-site, there are go-karts, animals, a trampoline, you can build a fire, and there’s a small shop that operates on trust. On Friday evening, we joined in for the fries night.

    Hele fijne tijd gehad in de huisjes. We hadden ze via natuurhuisje geboekt. Het is heel fijn met een groep te zijn en een weekendje door te brengen en toch je eigen plekje, wel vlak bij elkaar, te hebben. De huisjes zijn netjes onderhouden en waren zelfs een stukje luxer dan we hadden verwacht. Ter plekke zijn er skelters, dieren, trampoline, je kunt een vuurtje maken en er is een winkeltje wat in goed vertrouwen gaat. Op vrijdagavond aten we mee met de frietavond.

    We had an unforgettable experience. Ms. Anne and Mr. Eddie are very friendly and resourceful. We had the opportunity to see the cows milking and helping a bit with the horses. We felt very relaxed in spite of the rainy weather. We feel fortunate to found this place. Thank you.

    Very nice location for a family outing. Cow hugging and clog painting recommended and coffee with the local "flats" definitely try. Owners very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely come back again.
