Looking for a nice little getaway during the fall and winter months? Welcome to our cozy Tiny guesthouse! Right in the heart of the Betuwe, nestled among the rivers, you’ll find a wonderful spot to unwind and recharge. Enjoy beautiful walks, bike rides along the dikes, or curl up with a good book by the wood stove. We, Erwin and Lois, built the cottage ourselves. It’s located on the water on our property, where we live with our three daughters in the Poldermolen, on the edge of a quiet industrial park. Despite its compact size, the cottage is fully equipped with all the amenities you need, including a dishwasher, washing machine, oven, shower, and toilet. With both a wood-burning and gas stove, it’s a wonderful place to stay even in winter. Bedding and kitchen linens are included. The sofa easily converts into a cozy bed (193 x 135 cm). Come enjoy peace, nature, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. You’re very welcome!
Nature and surroundings
The Betuwe is perhaps one of the most beautiful, still-undiscovered regions in the Netherlands! In the immediate vicinity, you’ll find beautiful hiking and biking trails along the Linge River, over the dikes, and through picturesque villages. It’s a wonderful place to get some fresh air and relax. Our cottage is also an ideal base for fun day trips. The train station is less than a five-minute walk away. This way, you can combine the convenience of easy access with the tranquility of nature. Two city bikes are waiting for you, and e-bike rentals are also available. In short: a cozy stay for two people to get away from it all, especially during those bleak winter months, snuggled up by the wood stove! Note: We adjust our offerings in the spring and summer. During those seasons, you can also camp (see our listing “Camping by the Mill,” Nature House No. 65774), take a boat ride, or rent a tractor from us for a scenic drive through the area.

Everything I needed was there. The hospitality was great. I was able to do my own thing, knowing that I could also count on Loïs and Erwin. That was a comforting thought.
Alles aanwezig wat ik nodig had. De gastvrijheid was super. Ik kon mijn eigen ding doen en wist dat ik ook een beroep op Loïs en Erwin kon doen. Dat was een prettige gedachte.
I stayed two nights at the nature house in Geldermalsen in early October. The email correspondence leading up to my mini-vacation went smoothly. I received prompt replies, and the tone was informal.
When I arrived, despite the rain, Erwin gave me a warm welcome. We hit it off right away, and he showed me how to use the wood stove—which was a big help for someone who’s a bit clumsy in that department, so to speak. Everything was set up so I could get the fire going! After exploring the area, I met Loïs. She was really friendly, too.
The next day, I went for a lovely walk. Of course, I underestimated the number of kilometers… So walking back wasn’t such a good idea. Luckily, Loïs had suggested I take the train back.
I thoroughly enjoyed everything! I found the peace and quiet I was looking for. I felt safe in every way. Thank you all so much. Hope to see you next time!
BeaIk heb begin Oktober twee nachten gelogeerd in het natuurhuisje in Geldermalsen. De mailwisseling voorafgaande aan mijn mini vakantie, verliep goed. Ik kreeg snel antwoord en de toon was informeel.
Toen ik aankwam werd ik ondanks de regen, warm ontvangen door Erwin. Het contact voelde direct goed en ik heb geleerd hoe de houtkachel werkt. En dat voor iemand die op dat gebied wat onhandig is, zeg maar. Alles werd geregeld, zodat ik kon vlammen! Nadat ik de omgeving heb verkend, maakte ik kennis met Loïs. Ook bijzonder gezellig.
De volgende dag heb ik een mooie wandeling gemaakt. Natuurlijk heb ik het aantal kilometers onderschat... Dus wandelend terug, was niet zo'n goed idee. Gelukkig had ik de tip van Loïs gekregen om de trein terug te pakken.
Ik heb ontzettend genoten van alles! De rust die ik zocht, heb ik gevonden. Ik heb me veilig gevoeld, in alle opzichten. Dankjulliewel. Hopelijk tot de volgende keer!

The noise (see question 1) can be a downside, but other than that, everything is perfect! Very hospitable owners, plenty to do and see in the area. It’s a Tiny house, so it’s not very big, but it has all the amenities and is affordable.
De geluidshinder (zie vraag 1) kan een nadeel zijn, verder alles perfect! Zeer gastvrije eigenaren, genoeg te doen en te zien in de omgeving. Het is een tiny house dus niet heel groot maar van alle gemakken voorzien en niet duur.
Beautiful location, truly unique! I was there over the weekend, and it was pretty quiet then. But during the week, the nearby business and the road can be a bit noisy. The owner has already installed a soundproof screen behind the cottage.
I thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful location and the stunning sunsets.Prachtige locatie, uniek! Ik was er in het weekend en toen was het best wel rustig. Maar doordeweeks is het nabij gelegen bedrijf en de weg wel wat lawaaiig. De eigenaar heeft wel reeds een geluidswerend scherm achter het huisje geplaatst.
Ik heb volop genoten van de mooie locatie en prachtige zonsondergangenThis text is automatically translated. -

It was a nice stay, but the place isn't very well insulated, so be aware of temperature fluctuations. However, the owners do their very best to make your stay as pleasant as possible. It's fully equipped with all the amenities, and I was able to focus wonderfully on my studies there. I found it to be very cozy and pleasant.
Fijn verblijf maar een weinig geisoleerd verblijf dus let op temperatuurschommelingen. De eigenaren doen echter hun uiterste best om het verblijf zo aangenaam mogelijk te maken. Verder is het van alle gemakken voorzien en kon ik me daar heerlijk focussen op mijn studie. Ik heb het als heel knus en prettig ervaren.
A lovely setting. Surrounded by nature. A sweeping view, but unfortunately quite close to a road that’s getting busier and busier.
Fijne omgeving. Midden in de natuur. Wijds uitzicht maar helaas wel vrij dicht bij een steeds drukker wordende weg.
