Because we both have roots in Friesland, we feel here always very at ease, right from our first holiday here in 1998. The charm of Gaasterland is the combination of water and rolling forests, romantic villages and towns. To buy a holidayhouse here was our dream. We value the privacy of the large plot, and the quietness, and singing birds. Still the main facilities are all nearby. The cottage has just been totally refurbished and adapted to the times.

Cottage very nicely located in a forest.
With generous garden, dog friendly.
Kitchen well equipped.
Shower could be updated, slipping in the cabin is quite a risk.
Door handles everywhere are in poor condition.

Yes, a new shower will come at the end of the season when the contractor has time again, until then the shower is still fine, and usually there is an anti-slip mat! I can't place your comment about the door handles, they have a...

A lovely house, with a nice large garden. Nice and light, quiet location. Very pleasant to walk into the forest with your dog.
We didn't miss anything.

Beautiful cottage in the woods, beautiful windows, everything is there.

Cottage is clean but very damp and musty. When we got home we had to wash and air EVERYTHING, including my crochet.

We have never had this complaint. They report that all sheets and clothes had to be washed. This is normal if you have been on vacation for a week. They thought we should pay for this. Weird. You understand we have not paid. Th...

The location was fantastic, partly because of the dog forest. There were a lot of mosquitoes and no mosquito nets or mosquito nets. Ws because of the rain it was clammy inside. Had a wonderful stay though.

Yes, the rain keeps it feeling damp for longer in this wooded area. Lots of airs, doors and windows open!

The cottage is in a beautiful, quiet place in the middle of the forest. Nice overview of the garden with terrace, lawn and shrubs and plants.
With your dog you walk directly into the forest (garden is not fenced).

There are mosquito nets, but I can't see where they are at the moment...
Our experience is that tenants ventilate far too little, which is really necessary in the forest. Bathroom is scheduled for update, when the contrac...

When we are there ourselves, we put the kitchen stuff smartly, then there is always 1 whole kitchen cabinet empty, but that is not done by everyone....
