Pets not allowed
A small paradise just outside Utrecht, in the former peat area between Utrecht and Amsterdam. A nature house equipped with all the necessary luxuries: shower, kitchen, 2 bedrooms and a large living room. One bedroom has a large double bed. The 2nd bedroom has two single beds that can be switched to a double bed, or stacked if you only want to use one bed. The living room has windows all around and a lovely hanging sofa. It is bright even on dark days and has views of nature and water almost all around. A fantastic veranda with French doors and hanging chair with a view to dream away. A fire bowl on the grass in front of the porch provides a warm outdoor space on cool evenings. In warm weather, you can dive right off the porch into the water. Or go for a paddle in our Canadian canoe. The cottage is best for 3 people, but with a little arrangement, it can sleep 4.
Nature and surroundings
The nature house is located on the Maarsseveense plassen and 5 minutes from the Loosdrecht lakes. Less than two hundred meters away is the beautiful Spa Sereen, an atmospheric sauna on the Maarsseveense plassen. If you want a nice walk in the woods, you can go to Lage Vuursche or the Hilversumse heide, both fifteen minutes away.For those who can't handle so much peace and quiet, there is plenty to do within a short distance. Utrecht center is within cycling distance. Shopping, eating out and lots of nightlife throughout the week. There are also plenty of nice to lovely restaurants in the vicinity. Bistro Belle (van Zuylen) is a bistro on the Vecht at a stone's throw from Slot Zuylen, 2 birds with one stone. Something more luxurious you can eat at Buitenplaats Slangevecht (also a/d Vecht) and in the village of Maarssen is the place to go: Ted's, cozy loungy with terrace. More tips can be found after booking in our cottage....

Superb location. In the cottage itself some defects that have already been addressed in the reviews, but nothing was done. The worst is the bathroom: rain shower with 4 poor jets of water. As a woman, I cannot rinse myself properly with this, let alone wash my hair. Poor light: here a woman cannot make up, and a man cannot shave properly. Living room: spacious and light, but no curtains or anything of blinds. Bedroom: small, bed between walls (so annoying if you need to go to the toilet at night). No closet space. Mattress ok but not super.Kitchen: ok.
Schitterende ligging. In het huisje zelf enkele gebreken die in de reviews al aangekaart zijn, maar waar niks mee werd gedaan. Het ergste is de badkamer: regendouche waar 4 armtierige straaltjes water uit komen. Als vrouw kan ik me hier niet fatsoenlijk mee afspoelen, laat staan mijn haren wassen. Armzalig licht: hier kan een vrouw zich niet opmaken, en een man zich niet naar behoren scheren.
Woonkamer: ruim en licht, maar geen gordijnen of wat dan ook van zonwering.
Slaapkamer: klein, bed tussen muren (dus vervelend als je 's nachts naar de wc moet). Geen kastruimte. Matras ok maar niet super.
Keuken: ok.Location: magical. The cottage itself: some annoying defects.
Ligging: magisch. Het huisje zelf: enkele vervelende gebreken.
