Holiday house

Retro forest house 'De Verpoozing'


Come and enjoy  Space, Tranquility and...  RETRO!!   

Here you can also work without being distracted (except by the squirrels 😉). Partly due to the fast internet connection, it is a top workplace, ideal for a workation!
Retro forest house 'De Verpoozing' has the interior of the past but the comfort of today! 

'De Verpoozing' is not located on a holiday park but on a spacious forest plot (835 m2) and is located on a sandy path on the Borkeld (a wooded recreation area with detached, private houses) near Holten on the Sallandse Heuvelrug and is suitable for 1-4 people. 

Prefer a different arrival or departure day? Mail us and we will see what the possibilities are together.

There is a living/dining room, kitchen, two spacious bedrooms and a bathroom, all on one level. Adjacent to the living room is the open kitchen with the original kitchen unit from 1969! There is a refrigerator (with freezer), microwave and oven. In the kitchen cupboards there are storage cans filled with coffee and tea so you don't have to go to the store right away.

'De Verpoozing' has a pleasant, bright living room with a cozy (gas) stove.
Through the large windows all around you have a beautiful view of the forest and you can get a good look at the squirrels and birds. Want to see them even better? Binoculars hang from the coat rack!

When the weather is nice, I enjoy the garden with a book, doze off in the hammock or just sit in one of the many places, in or out of the sun. Plenty of choice!

Even when it is a bit chilly, you can have a great time here. There are "oh-yes-we-had-those-at-home-too" games, there is the same reading material and there is a record player with records,  in short, you don't have to be bored. With us you will make a special journey, a time travel back to 1969! 

The beautiful nature of the Sallandse Heuvelrug invites you to walk and cycle.
There are 2 bicycles waiting for you . Prefer to bring your own bikes? These can also be stored in the barn.
The old Hanseatic cities of Deventer (20 km)  and Zutphen (30 km) with their historic buildings are also worth a visit! 

Deventer has various nationally known cultural festivals, including the street theater festival Deventer op Stelten in July, the Boekenmark in August and the Dickens Festival in December.

The cottage is well insulated and therefore it has a pleasant temperature throughout the year. Cool in the summer and warm in the winter!
Of course there is also wifi, television, radio and central heating.

Parking is available under the carport next to the cottage or in front of the shed.
We are also easily accessible by public transport. Holten has a railway station and a bus stop is a 5-minute walk away.

'De Verpoozing' is not suitable for children aged 0-12 years. Pets are not allowed.
• Smoking, as well as (cheese) fondue or gourmet in the house is not allowed;
• Setting off open fires and fireworks is prohibited in the Borkeld recreation area because of the risk of forest fire.
