You will find our cozy holiday home in a beautiful location in the historic and bustling village of Ruinen, in the middle of nature. Huize Ruinen is located very privately in a unique forest garden. Enjoy the beautiful nature where you have all the privacy on an area of more than 800 m².
Due to its unique location, you can walk from the house through the forest to the Dwingelderveld National Park in a short time. The National Park is the largest contiguous wet heathland area in Western Europe. There are no fewer than two flocks of sheep with a shepherd who keep the heath in good condition. The diversity is great, ranging from forests, small streams, fens and heathlands.

With numerous walking and cycling options in the area, Huize Ruinen is also ideal for 'active peace seekers'. But the house is also the perfect base to discover the beautiful region in addition to nature. Sailing on the Weerribben, a day in Meppel or Zwolle, a visit to the Drents Museum or Camp Westerbork Memorial Center? Or perhaps to Wildlands, Plopsa Coevorden, an experience trail or a climbing park with the kids? In the summer months you can cool off in the open-air swimming pool in the village (5 minutes' drive).
