4 x Netflix and forest house: we got you covered

Anyone who reads Bart a little knows: we are actually complete not so averse to autumn. No, you're crazy. Every disadvantage has its advantage, Johan would tell us. Add a touch of hygge and voilà, we're hugging autumn with all its charm. But okay, you have to seek out and milk that charm yourself - as Swedish hygge teaches you. No problem for us. Autumn is upon us get some fresh air or just settle down: with a blanket and a cup of tea somewhere cozy on the couch. House, tree, screen, that idea. After all, there is no better time to binge-watch Netflix guilt-free than during a rainy day, in a hut on the heath. That's why we present you: 4 beautiful forest houses in the Netherlands.

Bed & Boshuisje - Holten

Bed & Boshuisje - Holten

Bed & Boshuisje, the name alone sounds very cozy. Repeat after us: Bart, Bed & Forest House. Hihi, as if it was meant to be.

But contrary to what the name suggests, this is not just one, but two houses. In the middle of nature. The houses belong to Marleen and Martijn and are located in the De Borkeld recreational area, near Holten and the Sallandse Heuvelrug National Park. House one, Huisje Nordic, is decorated in Scandinavian style. Thanks to success, house two, Huisje van Toen, which is decorated in vintage style, followed.

For both houses applies: thanks to the large windows you are surrounded by greenery everywhere. And whoever sees green, gets treats: big chance that you will be treated to squirrels and birds in the morning. Looking outside at the rain from here is a party.

Oh, and did we mention dogs are welcome?

Netflix tip: the Spanish series Vis to Vis. Reminiscent of Orange Is The New Black but with Spanish señoras in a prison. Not too scary, not too grim, just entertaining to watch. Moreover, the fourth season has just been released on Netflix, so you should be able to binge it.

 

 

Het Boshuisje - on the Veluwe

Het Boshuisje - on the Veluwe

When we talk about cozy, crackling houses, a forest house on the Veluwe should not be missed. Of course not. That's why we introduce without too much fuss: the Boshuisje on the Veluwe.

This house - which really looks like a log cabin - is located together with other holiday homes on a spacious forest plot and is surrounded by enormous beech and oak trees. There's not much you can do here other than hug trees, and hey, that's also quite fun. You can walk (or cycle) straight into the woods and then continue happily watching Netflix.

Netflix tip: Peaky Blinders. Not alone Peaky Blinders of the same level as Game of Thrones (a must-see case). But also is Peaky Blinders too beautifully filmed to watch with half an eye. If you are in an environment of wood, peace and deer, then Tommy Shelby (de Peaky-boss) your full attention.

Boshuis Nij Hildenberg – in the Frisian Appelscha

Boshuis Nij Hildenberg – in the Frisian Appelscha

'Our wooden holiday home is located in the forest in Appelscha, Friesland, and is accessible via a beautiful road, where in the past only the shepherd with his sheep came,' the first sentence reads. the website. And we admit: we are already sold on the word 'shepherd'.

The program Scandinavian house – that is to say, in terms of look & feel – is located on the edge of the Drents-Friese Wold National Park and is just right for a bit of relaxing, with friends (you can go there with 6 people, although 2 people have to sleep in a bunk bed) or you family.

Netflix tip: because you can stay here with more than two people, we recommend it No way by Ronald Goedemondt. His tickets for the Amsterdam shows are always sold out in no time and now that you are here to escape the city and catch your breath: Ronald is at your service.

 

Boshuis Nooit Gedacht – also in the Frisian Appelscha

Boshuis Nooit Gedacht – also in the Frisian Appelscha

Is Nij Hildenberg fully booked? Don't stress, you hygge fanatic. Then we simply continue to the next forest house in Appelscha. Boshuis Nooitgedacht, who would have thought that?

Everything has been done in this house to make you feel right at home. Fine furniture, a touch of vintage and a cozy living room. Adjacent to the dining area, you will find a sofa and two rattan armchairs next to the wood-burning stove. Just call it Netflix heaven.

Would you like to get some fresh air during a break? You can easily walk into the Drents Friese Wold national park. And you can also cook: the kitchen is fully equipped and the table is a real after-dinner table, you know?

Netflix tip: this house is so cozy and cozy, it calls for nostalgia. We happen to know that Free Willy was recently added to Netflix, so who's joining us for the trip down memory lane?
