l'Oiseau Bleu (Z11 Norg)

Modern Finnish holiday villa with sauna and 2 bathrooms on 2400 M2 of private forest land, within walking distance of Norg. The house is ideally located in the forest with a view over the meadows.

Norg is an old esdorp with village green, where an annual fair is held several times a year and many activities are organised.
Every season is incredibly beautiful in Drenthe. In winter with a thick layer of snow, it is like a fairy tale and in spring, summer and autumn with the many colored leaves, it is also picturesque.
It is quiet in all seasons. Because there is no light pollution, it is completely dark at night and you can see many more stars than is possible in a city.

Norg has a number of attractive shops, good restaurants, 2 large supermarkets and a very old picturesque church from 1300. The friendliness of the people who live there is also striking.
The area around Norg is known for its many beautiful cycle paths. There is a bicycle rental company in the village.


The first dolmen in Westervelde is 2 km away.
If you continue driving you will arrive in Veenhuizen. A former penal colony with monumental houses, which is therefore on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Here you can also visit the prison museum. Beer is brewed and cheese is made in Maallust and Kaaslust.

Near Veenhuizen is the Fochteloërveen, a 25 hectare nature reserve. It is considered one of the best preserved raised bog areas in the Netherlands.

The capital of Drenthe, Assen, is also worth a visit. Not only for the many shops and the beautiful center, but also visit the Drenthe museum with its many exhibitions.
