Nature and surroundings
The nature house is located west of the town of Rhenen, known for, among other things, Ouwehands Zoo, the military cemetery on the Grebbenberg, and the De Blauwe Kamer nature reserve. It’s situated on a spur of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug and borders wooded estates (including De Tang), where you can enjoy peaceful walks. This nature house is also ideal for horse lovers. Cyclists will be in their element, as a cycle route runs right past the property. It’s lovely to sit outside, and when the sun gets too strong, the walnut trees provide wonderful shade. The cottage and the surrounding garden exude a relaxed (French) atmosphere. It’s now also possible to prepare a meal outdoors over a wood fire in a pan placed on the grate above the fire pit. The view of the surrounding nature is truly beautiful. The cottage is regularly visited by all kinds of animals, including the spotted woodpecker and, occasionally, a roe deer. On New Year’s Eve, the neighbors do set off fireworks, unfortunately...

The spot itself, with the loggia, is fantastic. The cottage could have been cleaned a bit better in a few places. The kitchenette was fine. Outside, we were able to enjoy building a wood fire.
Het plekje zelf met de loggia is fantastisch. Het huisje had hier en daar wat beter schoongemaakt kunnen worden. Keukentje was prima. Buiten konden we heerlijk een houtvuurtje stoken.
Wonderfully secluded on a private road. Only occasional car traffic and cyclists pass by (part of the cycle route network!). The cottage with its loggia sits on its own small lot, and across from it graze the horses from the riding school just around the corner. The area around Rhenen is beautiful; the Utrechtse Heuvelrug slopes down here toward the floodplains of the Lower Rhine, and it’s a part of the Dutch landscape that you simply must see.
Heerlijk afgelegen aan een eigen weg. Er komt alleen gericht autoverkeer langs en fietsers (knooppuntenroute!). Het huisje met loggia staat op een eigen erfje en daartegenover lopen de paarden van de manege die om de hoek ligt. De omgeving van Rhenen is prachtig; De Utrechtse heuvelrug loopt hier af richting de uiterwaarden van de Nederrijn en dat is een stukje van het Nederlands landschap dat je gezien moet hebben.

It looks clean, but could be cleaned better.
There were a lot of flies when we arrived at the cottage.
Due to the single-pane windows and lack of air conditioning, it’s not suitable in high temperatures.
There’s plenty of space around the cottage, but it’s a shame the grass is so tall.
Otherwise, there’s a beautiful view of the horses and the lovely surroundings.Voor het oog schoon maar mag wel beter gepoetst.
Veel vliegen bij aankomst in huisje.
Door enkel glas en geen airco niet geschikt bij hoge temperaturen.
Rondom huisje veel plek maar jammer van zeer hoge gras.
Verder mooi uitzicht op de paarden en mooie omgeving.Beautiful location. Great area for biking.
Mooie ligging. Fijne omgeving voor te fietsen.
