Nature, landscape and village character

Zevenhuizen reveals its character not only through nature, but also through its preserved village structures. North of the centre, along the Evertswijk and in the southern districts of De Haspel and Veldstreek, the peat-colony structure has been preserved. The Kleine Kerkje is located at Dorpsstraat 139 in Zevenhuizen. When you choose a holiday apartment in Zevenhuizen, you can combine landscape experiences, village history and peaceful discoveries.

Bolmeer is freely accessible to the public. It is a pingo remnant that came to light during an excavation at the beginning of the 19th century. As a result, this site brings together a special type of landscape and a tangible insight into the area’s formation history. Bolmeer is therefore a destination for anyone who wants to do more than just walk during their stay and also observe geological features.

You can go for walks in Nanninga’s Bos. The woodland covers approximately 27 hectares. Parking for a visit to Bolmeer is available at the information panel for Nanninga’s Bos. An IVN Westerkwartier e.o. walking route also passes through Nanninga’s Bos and along Bolmeer near Zevenhuizen. This gives you a specific walking idea for planning your day, bringing forest and water together in one route without requiring you to choose just one type of nature experience.

Harense Bos also has a clearly defined landscape profile. It was established on a sandy elevation created by the wind. The eastern side of Harense Bos lies two to three metres lower than the western side. The differences in elevation arose when the area was still a sand drift. Anyone who pays attention to landforms while walking will find an illustrative contrast within the same woodland area.

Wellness and seasonal delights

The De Waterlelie wellness resort in Zevenhuizen offers a wide selection of special saunas, a spacious wellness garden, massages by professional therapists and various wellness rituals. Reservations are required for sauna visits and treatments. If you would like to focus on relaxation after experiencing nature, this specific planning consideration is part of your decision when choosing a holiday apartment in Zevenhuizen.

Seasonal products are also part of the local experience. During the season, the farm shop of VOF Poelman Aardbeien en Asperges sells strawberries and asparagus. This information is particularly interesting if regional food and the rhythm of the agricultural season play a role during your stay. The products complement Zevenhuizen’s natural and village character with a culinary aspect, without reducing the village to gastronomy.

Which holiday apartment suits your plans

When choosing a holiday apartment in Zevenhuizen, you can use your preferred daily rhythm as a guide. Nature interests lead to the freely accessible landscape experiences at Bolmeer, walks in Nanninga’s Bos or the landforms of Harense Bos. A walk through Nanninga’s Bos and along Bolmeer offers another way to make your stay active. For relaxing hours, De Waterlelie offers saunas, a wellness garden, massages and rituals, while the farm shop adds seasonal strawberries and asparagus. The preserved peat-colony structure and the Kleine Kerkje provide a cultural accent.
