Nature house in Graauw
Zeeland, Netherlands
- 5 persons
- 4 bedrooms
- WiFi
- Pets allowed
The characteristic five-person Zeeland-Flemish farmhouse has fine, spacious rooms. The attractive, country style of the cottage is warm, inviting and gives you a feeling of being at home. There is a bright and well-equipped kitchen with a veranda. From here you also have access to the garden, where you can sit sheltered. The cozy living room consists of a dining area and a sitting and TV area with a fireplace. On the ground floor there is a double and a single bedroom. Here is also the bathroom with shower, toilet and sauna. On the second floor there are two single bedrooms and a spacious landing. Through the garden you reach the food forest . This is part of the landlords' new concept that they have developed alongside their organic arable farm. The principle is to mimic forest ecological processes with edible plants in conjunction with animals. In the cooking barn there is a dinner party once a month.
Nature and surroundings
You will find the nature house in the middle of the polders of Graauw, a hamlet near the river Scheldt, among orchards and fields of crops. It is wonderful cycling, walking or touring along the dikes in Zeeuws-Vlaanderen, enjoying wide views over the fields. For nature lovers, Het Verdronken Land van Saeftinghe, one of the most beautiful nature reserves in the Netherlands, is just around the corner. Looking for history, culture, the Burgundian lifestyle, conviviality and shopping? You'll find it all in the fortified town of Hulst, eight kilometers from Graauw. Or take a nice day trip to Antwerp (25 minutes) or Ghent (45 minutes). The region is a paradise for anyone who loves good food and drink. The sea, the fields, the polders and the orchards; everywhere you see fresh, tasty products, often with that typical salty undertone. Already within few kilometers from the cottage you will find several special cafes and restaurants. If you don't want to sunbathe and swim on one of the nearby Westerschelde beaches, less than an hour away you will find the wonderful Zeeland beaches. Sheltered behind dunes and dikes in Cadzand, Breskens, Groede or Nieuwvliet you can spend hours.

Gundi July 25, 2025 General rating:The house is clean, the antique furniture has flair. But the kitchen utensils were too old for us, 6 cutlery knives were simply not enough for four people. Everything works, but can't hide its age. The landlords are very friendly and the organic vegetables on offer are delicious! Our conclusion: A cottage with its own peculiarities, more for the early or late season. Definitely practical if you want to visit Antwerp.
Das Haus ist sauber, die antiken Möbel haben Flair. Aber uns waren die Küchenutensilien zu alt, 6 Besteckmesser für vier Personen einfach zu wenig. Alles funktioniert zwar, kann aber sein Alter nicht verhehlen. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich, das angebotene Biogemüse ausgesprochen lecker! Unser Fazit: Ein Häuschen mit Eigenheiten, eher für die Vor- oder Nachsaison. Auf jeden Fall praktisch, wenn man Antwerpen besichtigen möchte.
Nature, peace & environment:Perhaps we were a little naive when we booked the house for a week at the end of July. But we had a veritable highway of tractors right outside the living room and were on the verge of making a tally sheet. The frequency was sometimes 5 minutes apart. Unfortunately, that didn't have much to do with relaxation, but it must be at harvest time. It was probably rather foolish of us to expect a quiet rural idyll at this time. The battle with the flies could only be ended with appropriate fly traps.
Vielleicht waren wir etwas naiv, als wir das Haus für eine Woche Ende Juli buchten. Aber wir hatten eine regelrechte Trecker-Autobahn direkt vor dem Wohnzimmer und waren kurz davor, eine Strichliste anzufertigen. Die Taktung lag bei Fahrten im Abstand von teils 5 Minuten. Das hatte leider nicht viel mit Erholung zu tun, muss aber zu Erntezeiten wohl sein. Es war wohl eher dumm von uns, in dieser Zeit ländlich ruhige Idylle zu erwarten. Der Kampf mit den Fliegen ließ sich nur mit entsprechenden Fliegenfallen beenden.
