Are you looking for a spacious and luxurious accommodation in a farmhouse from 1848, in a place where you can still hear the silence? Then Grandpa's House might be something for you. The old farmer (grandpa) used to live here, but after he went to the nursing home, we thoroughly refurbished and modernized the house. It is now a wonderfully bright holiday home for 2 people with living room and bedroom, shower and toilet on the ground floor. The house is fully equipped and offers you plenty of privacy. The interior is a mix of old (such as the crockery) and new (such as the box-spring beds). You will feel right at home! Rental min. 4 nights.

Grandpa's Cottage has a large living room with smart TV and HiFi set with a.o. Bluetooth and USB connection, so you can always enjoy your own music. The open kitchen has a combination microwave, coffee maker for filter coffee, Nespresso or Senseo and dishwasher. You also have a south-facing terrace and a private entrance.

Grandpa's Cottage is an independent half of the front house with its own entrance and is located on a picturesque country road with unobstructed views over the countryside. Numerous nice places, such as Giethoorn, Meppel, Ruinen and Dwingeloo are just a stone's throw away. The Dwingelderveld National Park is also nearby.

Grandpa's Cottage is a non-smoking property.
Due to the setting and furnishings, Grandpa's Cottage is not suitable for children

In 2004 we, Karin and Jeroen, changed course and moved from the Randstad to Ruinerwold (Drenthe) to convert an old (1848) farm into a small-scale luxury B&B; The Glory Ruinerwold. The renovation of the B&B took 2 1/2 years and after that we renovated Grandpa's Huisje into a holiday home and did the garden.
