A little forest retreat for Shinrin-yoku

This forest retreat offers a simple stay in nature—a log house built from natural materials, with a small wood stove to keep you warm during cold weather. We welcome guests, offering them a chance to take a break from busy daily life. Here, you have the opportunity to reconnect with yourself through Shinrin-yoku (forest bathing) and meditation. Whenever you need a break for self-reflection, we provide a simple and safe space where you can lighten your mind and body. The space We are located right in the middle of the woods, close to the Haeselaar nature reserve with its rich bird life. This is where The Netherlands is at it’s most narrow, 300 m from Germany and 10 km from Belgium. Our space is about 1 hectare of woodlands, far from the main roads. The private and quietness of the place make it especially suitable for students, writers, artists to do creative work or study and to get inspiration from nature. Other things to note Our place offers a simple, back-to-nature experience. The toilet is a dry compost toilet, it’s located in the forest, about 15 meters from the log house. A hot shower is available next to the main house (50 meters). Although there is no kitchen with running water in the cottage, there is a tap and a space to prepare simple meals close to the main house (50 meters). Also, there is an electric cooling box available. The mobile signal is weak here, making it the perfect place for a digital detox. Free use of simple bicycles. Making campfires, smoking and use of music boxes is not allowed. The use of electric heating appliances is prohibited as the electric circuitry does not support them. Thank you very much, and we are looking forward to seeing you!
