About this location

Dream of a back-to-basics stay in an open treehouse with a roof and beautiful views at 6 m height? Wake up wonderfully with the sun and maybe spot a deer looking for food near the treehouse. There is a mosquito net and a double air mattress. Bring your own sleeping bag and pillow. The outdoor toilet is nearby. In autumn and winter, bring a thick blanket—it gets fresh towards morning. In the small accommodation building you can charge your phone, use a fridge (x), use the gas stove (x, see extras to book), take a cold outdoor shower, and make a campfire (x, unless dry period). There are numerous walking and cycling opportunities in the direct area: Molse Meren, Keiheuvel, ecocentrum, etc. You can start right from the treehouse into the nature reserve for walking, mountain biking or cycling along the canal. You are right at the Molse Nete. After half an hour of cycling you can already enjoy a nice terrace and eat something along the canal, or walk 1.5 km to the centre. For a drink there is also a local café at the beginning of the street (closed only on Wednesdays, with summer atmospheric performances on Sundays). The treehouse is reached via a long ladder. The opening is narrow; there is a barrel to hoist your equipment up. Welcome!

Perfect for...

Adventurers, nature lovers, hikers, cyclists
