The Freulevijver, located in the Oude Bos between Wijnjewoude and Bakkeveen, is an idyllic and historic place. The forest was created around 1880 by the noble family Lycklama à Nijeholt as a private park and production forest. The pond was created by a dike breach of the nearby Koningdiep, and was enlarged around 1900 by Jonkvrouw Eritia Lycklama à Nijeholt. Although the original tea house and boathouse have disappeared, the location remains a beautiful spot for a picnic, with a natural gazebo that is reminiscent of the former charm of the place.

The winery is named after its original owners, the Lauswolt family in Beetsterzwaag, who owned several farms here. During the 19th century, the estate came into the possession of Augustinus Lycklama à Nijeholt, son of the mayor of Beetsterzwaag Jan Anne Lycklama à Nijeholt. In 1867, Lycklama à Nijeholt commissioned the Utrecht architect Samuel Adrianus van Lunteren to build a mansion on the estate. He only lived there for a relatively short time, and after his marriage in 1872 he and his family soon left Beetsterzwaag. In 1878 he sold the estate to Reinhard, Baron van Harinxma thoe Slooten.
