“…It’s still truly quiet here…” In the wooded, hilly landscape of Utrechtse Heuvelrug National Park, near the village of Leersum, lies a former estate. Access to the vast forests of the Darthuizerberg is an experience in itself, and there, at the end of the semi-paved forest lane, nestled amid the woods of the nature reserve, stands the Lodge. The Lodge offers a true sense of the great outdoors. It features views of the meadow with horses, nestled among the beautiful woods. The surrounding area offers endless opportunities for hiking and biking. The nature house is equipped with every luxury and comfort, providing the perfect setting to relax. You’ll also enjoy a restful night’s sleep in Royal Auping beds. There are numerous attractions in the immediate vicinity: the nature reserve is rich in centuries-old estates and castles and also offers many activities for children. Check-in at the Lodge from 4:00 PM & Check-out by 10:00 AM (Sundays until 7:00 PM)
Nature and surroundings
Utrechtse Heuvelrug National Park is one of the 21 national parks in the Netherlands and is the second-largest forested area in the country. “150,000 years ago, ice and water pushed up masses of earth and rocks, forming a ridge in the heart of the Netherlands. Standing on this ridge, you’re in the largest forest in the Randstad and have a view of the river landscape. Here, history is palpable everywhere. This is due not only to the many estates and castles but also to the area’s significant military history. Thanks to its location and beauty, the Utrechtse Heuvelrug has been a place where people have come to relax and recharge for centuries. It’s no coincidence that wealthy city dwellers built their country estates right here—close to the city yet surrounded by nature. Here, history is cherished, while at the same time everyone can experience the ridge in their own way.

An absolute gem in the woods. The cottage is fully equipped, beautifully decorated, and offers every comfort. The lovely, spacious garden surrounding it is an oasis of tranquility, where all you can hear is the singing of countless birds—it’s magical! It’s also a great base for activities like bike rides in the area. Add to that the warm hospitality, and you have the ultimate place to unwind. Highly recommended—we’ll definitely be back!
Een absolute parel in het bos. Het verblijf is compleet en mooi ingericht en van alle comfort voorzien. De fijne ruime tuin rondom is een oase van rust, waar je alleen het gezang van de vele vogels hoort, magisch! Daarnaast is het een goede uitvalsbasis voor o.a. fietstochten in de omgeving. Tel daar de warme gastvrijheid bij op en je hebt de ultieme plek om te onthaasten. Echt een aanrader, wij komen hier zeker terug!
An oasis of peace—perfect!
