Nature house in Kekerdom
Gelderland, Netherlands

- 1 bedroom
- WiFi
- Pets allowed
In Kekerdom, under the smoke of Nijmegen and cycling distance from Millingen aan de Rijn, just outside the dike at the gate of nature reserve "The Millingerwaard" lies this monumental semi-detached house. Through the shared front door you enter the hall, where both cottages have their own lockable entrance door. There is a large shared garden, but each cottage has its own seating area. The nature house with the inscription "Natura speculum creatoris" (nature is the mirror image of creation) was formerly used as a farm, but can now be used by you as a nature house! From the cottage you step directly into the worth or start your bike ride on the dikes along the great rivers. You can swim within walking distance in one of the lakes in the nature reserve. For your wet and dry you can visit "the Millinger Theetuin" or "the Value of Kekerdom". Did you know that you have the greatest chance of seeing a beaver in the very early morning or in the evening hours?
Nature and surroundings
The Millingerwaard is a nature reserve in Gelderland and is part of the Gelderse Poort, designated as a Natura 2000 area. The area is located west of Millingen in the Ooijpolder on the river Waal and is about 800 hectares in size. The Millingerwaard is managed by the World Wildlife Fund and Staatsbosbeheer and the intention is to allow nature to take its course as much as possible. Eighty acres consist of a forest reserve with willow trees and the remainder consists of marsh, meadows, forest and surface water. The Gelderse Poort is home to about 160 Konik horses and 120 Galloways. In the Millingerwaard beavers have been released and there have been sightings of the lesser weathervane butterfly and the wood bat. Along the Waal, sand drift is taking place and river dunes have formed. There are a few farms and houses in the area where about 20 people live. The Millinger Tea Garden is also located in the Millingerwaard and can be reached on foot from the cottage.

Carina May 16, 2025 General rating:Furnishing may not be what you expect in a nature house , lots of plastic flowers, mouse poison , but tastes differ. It is comfortable , you can sit outside and everything you need is there.
Inrichting is misschien niet wat je in een natuurhuisje verwacht , veel plastic bloemen, muizengif , maar smaken verschillen. Het is comfortabel , je kan lekker buiten zitten en alles wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig.
Nature, peace & environment:House is in a special place , excellent starting point for hiking and cycling in the Ooijpolder.
Huis staat op een bijzondere plek , uitstekend uitgangspunt om te gaan wandelen en fietsen in de Ooijpolder.

Henriette April 26, 2025 General rating:Quite busy on the dike next to the house with walkers, cyclists and motorcycles (noise).
Nogal druk op de dijk naast het huis met wandelaars, fietsers en motoren (lawaai).
Nature, peace & environment:Fine cottage, simple but pleasant.
Prima huisje, eenvoudig maar prettig.
