Het Poorthuysje

Forest house for 2 upt to 4


These are the highlights

  • The forest cottage is tucked away beneath a number of majestic old trees on the historic Singraven estate.

  • In addition to Huis Singraven, the estate also comprises the Singraven watermill on the River Dinkel, a coach house and a number of tenant farms.

  • On Saturdays and Sundays, you can order a generously filled breakfast basket.


For Petra & Ben Smit, a long-cherished dream came true with the opening of the monumental Poorthuysje for guests. They live together with their dog Eefje in the beautiful Koetshuis that is 800 meters further on the Singraven estate. They always intended to stay active after their retirement and receiving and pampering nice guests fits in perfectly with that picture, because hospitality is in their blood.

You will find the Poorthuysje hidden under a number of majestic old trees on this historic estate. The forest house offers ample space for two to a maximum of four guests. For this purpose, a kitchen has been equipped with everything you need to cook a meal yourself. The sitting area has a pleasant wood stove, the bathroom is complete and the beds guarantee a good night's sleep.

On nice days, the terrace is ready for you to endlessly enjoy the surrounding nature.

Surroundings

Huis Singraven can be visited and a tour of the Louis XV and Louis XVI style rooms and the exceptional art and antiques collection can be arranged on site. The estate itself is an oasis of peace and natural beauty, complete with a park and estate shop. There is also the arboretum, a specialized botanical garden. Het Schuivenhuisje, which can be reached on foot or by bike, is also more than worth a visit. Cycling and walking routes take you to the most beautiful places in Twente. A number of striking areas in the vicinity are the Lutterzand, Springendal or the Vasserheide. Ootmarsum is picturesquely beautiful and known for its many galleries. Oldenzaal has a nice market on Saturdays, in Enschede you can go shopping and have a drink on the Oude Markt. Germany is nearby with beautiful cities such as Münster or Osnabrück. Bad Bentheim with its beautiful castle is also recommended.
