6x sleeping in a B&B in the countryside of Drenthe

On the large camping grounds of Voscheheugte, you stay in one of ten special nature huts surrounded by greenery. Each cabin has its own character. In design hut 'De Goudvink', for example, you sleep in a box bed with a view of the sunset and in the 'Strohuisje' you crawl under the wool between the hay bales. Spend your evening outside under the stars by the campfire. Good to know: every nature cabin is made of sustainable materials.

Breakfast
You can order breakfast. Fresh rolls, croissants, boiled eggs, premium cold cuts and cheeses, sweet spreads, fruit, fresh orange juice and delicious (barista-style) coffee or tea (€14.50 per person; children eat for €8.50). You can collect your breakfast from reception.

The Mantingerzand nature reserve is a five-minute walk directly opposite this B&B. This heathland area with sand drifts is ideal for a nice dew walk or sunset hike.

B&B De Bommelier is located in the picturesque Drenthe village of Roderwolde. In the middle of nature, owners Harry and Jolande built the wooden B&B as a detached guesthouse. Here, four people sleep in the cosy sleeping loft. From the bed and breakfast you have a view of the meadows and you can walk straight into the Onlanden nature reserve. If you go very early or around sunset, with some luck you might spot a herd of roe deer.

Study the Milky Way with a telescope or stare at the stars through the glass skylight above your bed. In a blue studio at B&B de Ster van Dwingeloo, you literally dream away under the endless sky.

Nice to know: in the morning, you can sit here on the terrace overlooking the cows.

Cuddling lambs, strolling through the organic vegetable garden and enjoying life on the farm. A night at B&B Puur Drenthe is a time to relax.

Above the campfire, the kettle is simmering. Goats, chickens and rabbits happily scurry about the yard. Children climb into the tree house and you heat up the sauna. This bed and breakfast in Drenthe is serene. I am talking about B&B Rust & Reuring. Host Paul welcomes you to one of his four fine places to stay. I have a clear favourite: the Plaggenhut. This typical Drenthe cottage is super cosy. Formerly inhabited by the poorest workers, it is now a unique accommodation with a story. In the Plaggenhut, you stay with a maximum of 4 people and sleep in a box bed. Fun to do: cooking from a witch's cauldron. Just like a fairy tale.
