This nature house is really in the middle of the nature of Drenthe, sandwiched between the oldest primeval forests of the Netherlands and one of the few, well-preserved unique raised bog areas. The nature house is a national monument from 1839 and is part of the steam cotton mill complex as part of the "Third Institution"(from the "Pauper Paradise" and "The foundling of Veenhuizen"). After decades of ruins, the building was completely restored in 2002 and in the old dormitory, with a sense of style and character, three independent double apartments were realized. The nature house has a bathroom with floor heating, an open kitchen with combi microwave, dishwasher, a TV and a wood stove. Upstairs is a sleeping loft with a double bed. At the front of the nature house you have a view of the forest, at the back spacious views over the beautiful vast farmlands; perfect for rest and a relaxing stay in nature.
