Surroundings

Hotel Villa Nova Zorgvlied is close to Diever and Appelscha. In the triangle Zorgvlied, Diever, Appelscha lies Aekingerzand, the largest sand drifts of the Netherlands, almost completely surrounded by coniferous and deciduous forests. In 2004, this unique hilly area was elected most beautiful area of Drenthe and therefore it is most certainly recommended. In Zorgvlied there are some riding stables where horses can be hired, a unique way of transport to explore the surroundings. Those who can't ride may choose to make a covered wagon ride. Fun to do is visit the Planetron in Dwingeloo, where you can marvel at the solar system from closeby in the space theatre.
