The nature house is located on the Wetering (with an unobstructed view all the way to the Diefdijk); it is part of a renovated barn that we remodeled in 2019. The cottage is fully equipped and offers all modern conveniences. It can accommodate up to 4 people, though it will be a bit cramped. It’s ideal for 2 adults. There is one bedroom with a 160x200 bed and an adjoining bathroom with a toilet on the first floor. Downstairs, you’ll find a kitchen with a dining area, a toilet, and a sitting area; the total living area is approximately 60 m². You’ll have access to a large portion of the garden; our house is well-screened by vegetation, so you’ll have plenty of privacy. The sun rises over the meadow, creating some stunning views. Plus, you can enjoy fishing in the 2-meter-deep canal. Parking is available in front of the farmhouse (No. 42). The village of Schoonrewoerd is about an 800-meter walk away, where you’ll find a bakery and a supermarket.
Nature and surroundings
This area itself is very popular among the Dutch population because of its beautiful landscape, its well-preserved medieval towns (such as Leerdam, Gorinchem, Kedichem, Acqouy, and Beesd) along the Linge River, and the many opportunities for biking, hiking, and enjoying the waterfront. From the garden, you have a view of the Diefdijk (part of the New Dutch Water Line). From here, you can enjoy fantastic bike rides along the dike toward Culemborg and Leerdam, as well as into the surrounding countryside; the areas around Hei and Boeicop, Meerkerk, and Arkel are truly stunning. The bus stop is a 400-meter walk away (line 85 Utrecht–Leerdam) at the Kortgerecht Blauwbijl stop. You can reach Utrecht Central Station by bus in 30 minutes.

Outside you could sit super well, but not inside. The couch didn't sit well and the chairs weren't nice to sit on that for a while either
Buiten kon je supergoed zitten, maar binnen niet. De bank zat niet goed en de stoelen waren ook niet fijn om daar een tijd op te zitten
You can enjoy the peace and quiet in the garden.
Je kan er heerlijk in de tuin genieten van de rust.

The furnishings were very complete. Everything you can think of was there. Not with luxury, but okay. Unfortunately, the bed had sagged, leaving us in a pit. The dense entrance to the cottage resulted in wet clothes and dirty shoes. A sprinkler turned on late in the evening (not indicated anywhere), almost showering us. There was a leak in the sink cabinet (not mentioned, but there was a catch basin that overflowed). The towels smelled. Pedal bin on bathroom was overflowing upon arrival. Before our stay, we only got in touch with the landlord after several attempts and with help from Nature House. The landlord welcomed us and left on vacation the following day himself. Unfortunately, he had not provided a point of contact during his absence, so we had to make our own plan when a smoke detector started beeping loudly in the middle of the night.
De inrichting was heel compleet. Alles wat je kunt bedenken was aanwezig. Niet met luxe, maar oké.
Helaas was het bed doorgezakt, waardoor we in een kuil lagen. De dichtbegroeide toegang tot het huisje levert natte kleren en vieze schoenen op. Laat in de avond gaat een sproeier aan (wordt nergens aangegeven), waardoor we bijna gedoucht werden.
Er was een lekkage in het gootsteenkastje (niet vermeld, maar er stond wel een opvangbakje dat overliep). De handdoeken stinken. Pedaalemmer op badkamer was bij aankomst overvol.
Vóór ons verblijf hebben we pas na meerdere pogingen en met hulp van Natuurhuisje contact gekregen met de verhuurder. De verhuurder heeft ons verwelkomd en is de dag erna zelf op vakantie vertrokken. Helaas had hij niet gezorgd voor een aanspreekpunt tijdens zijn afwezigheid, waardoor we zelf onze plan moesten trekken toen een rookmelder midden in de nacht hard begon te piepen.Rest, space and nature was fine, yet the whole was disappointing due to several inconveniences.
Rust, ruimte en natuur was prima.
Het geheel was toch wel teleurstellend door meerdere ongemakken.This text is automatically translated. -

Too bad you couldn't fish there, contrary to claims. The canal was full of algae on the bottom.
Jammer dat je er niet kon vissen, in tegenstelling wat wordt beweerd. De vaart lag vol met algen op de bodem.
Lovely in nature and quiet.
Heerlijk in de natuur en stil.
