About this property
Farmhouse in Waskemeer with Large Garden
Life moves a little slower out in the Drenthe countryside, and this detached farmhouse makes the most of it. Surrounded by open fields and cycling routes, the house sleeps up to 15 guests and works especially well for extended families or groups looking for long outdoor days followed by relaxed evenings back together around the table.
The atmosphere here feels easy and unfussy in the best way. Children usually disappear toward the garden or games area while the adults settle into slower lunches outside or cycle rides through the surrounding countryside. Indoors, the farmhouse stays warm and comfortable during colder months with spacious communal areas designed more for gathering together than formal entertaining.
Walking and cycling routes begin directly around the property, while restaurants and cafés can be reached within roughly 2 km. TT Circuit Assen lies around 30 minutes away and attracts motorsport fans throughout the year. Guests looking for quieter nature spots should visit Drents-Friese Wold National Park, known for forests, heathlands, and peaceful cycling trails through one of the Netherlands’ largest nature reserves. The nearby villages are also worth exploring slowly by bike rather than car, especially during summer afternoons.
Pets are welcome at the property. Several pet-friendly cafes in the region welcome you and your four-legged friends, ensuring mealtimes are enjoyable for the whole family after a day of exploration. For reasons of tranquillity, this holiday home will not be rented to groups of youngsters It is strictly forbidden to organise any student party, bachelor party or drinking party in this house

Mooie ruime schone vakantieboerderij, heerlijke omheinde tuin, dus ideaal met de twee honden die mee waren. Zeer vriendelijke eigenaar die na aankomst wat lekkers en de krant kwam brengen. Zeker aan te raden met een wat grotere groep.

Ein herzlicher Empfang mit Bierburg, friesischen Dumkes und der Zeitung! Es ist ein wunderschöner Ort. Das Obergeschoss ist etwas schwieriger zugänglich. Der Schlafbereich ist geräumig, aber aus Sicherheitsgründen (schwierige Treppe) haben wir das Obergeschoss nicht genutzt. Ein supertoller Spielbereich für die Kinder mit Dartscheibe, Tischfußball und Tischtennisplatte. Draußen in der Scheune gab es außerdem Go-Karts und Schaukeln. Ein echtes Vergnügen für Kinder. Ein Ort zum Entspannen.

Ein fantastisches, geräumiges Haus für uns zehn. Wir hatten nie Langeweile, dank Darts, Tischtennis, Tischfußball und einem großen, umzäunten Garten mit zwei Go-Karts und Schaukeln für die Kinder. Auch unsere beiden Hunde hatten draußen viel Platz. In den umliegenden Wäldern gibt es zahlreiche Freilaufflächen für Hunde. Kurz gesagt: ein großartiges Ferienhaus.

Das Haus ist sehr groß mit einer tollen Außenanlage (Garten) und vielen verschiedenen Aktivitäten die man dort unternehmen kann. Vor allem für Kinder und Familien gut geeignet. Es liegt etwas abgelegen, was aber kein Problem ist, wenn ein Auto vorhanden ist. Man kann direkt am Kanal gegenüber vom Haus Angeln und der Vermieter ist auch sehr nett. Klare Empfehlung 👍🏼
