This is what you call: a room with a view. A place where all your senses open up. This small-scale accommodation consists of two semi-detached cottages of 50m2 each and is suitable for 2-4 persons. Located in the outskirts of Gilze, with unobstructed views of 20 hectares, this nature house offers complete privacy and a sea of space. The cottage is new and furnished with a great sense of atmosphere and equipped with the latest green gadgets. In addition to a cozy dining table and sitting area with wood stove, there is a double bed on the ground floor and two single beds in the loft. Luxury bed linen, kitchen and hand towels (1 large and 1 small p.p.) are included. The uniqueness of this nature house is the rural location and the view outside, where you look endlessly far away over rolling brushwood and a frog pool, created in cooperation with Brabants Landschap.

    It’s such a pleasure to enjoy the open space and nature here! From the small terrace in front of the house, you feel as if you’re immersed in the beautiful surroundings, which were landscaped by the extremely friendly owners. You’ll hardly hear any sounds other than those produced by nature. In the background, you can hear the frogs croaking from the frog pond, located about 40 meters from the cottage, and the variety of birds chirping. The view is endless, with grasslands surrounded by trees, allowing us to enjoy a truly beautiful sunset.
    The cottage is fully equipped, with an outdoor dining table, an indoor dining table, and a kitchen with everything you need to cook well.
    Everything looked very neat and clean, was in excellent condition, and the beds were very comfortable! We stayed here in the summer, but also on a rainy day in the winter; I think I could easily enjoy myself here with the wood stove and the cozy atmosphere of the cottage. My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time. We’d love to come back.

    The surroundings are also beautiful. There are forests and a lovely recreational lake (’t Zand) where you can enjoy a swim or relax on the beach with a book. The forests are vast. If you’d like, you can bike or hike through the Chaam forests to Breda.
    From the cottage, you have a beautiful view. The property, which used to be a farm with many barns, has been transformed into a lovely 1.5-hectare nature area.
    So walking, biking, reading, painting, and simply gazing out at the outdoors are all perfectly possible here.
    By the way, there are some nice little restaurants in the immediate vicinity.

    What a beautiful and special place. We ended up here through a friend of a friend, and we’re so glad we discovered this spot. Cottage West is fully equipped, very clean, the beds are incredibly comfortable, and it’s located in a beautiful, peaceful setting.
    Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by both the hostess and the host.
    During our stay, we went on many walks and bike rides. At dusk, we enjoyed the impressive chorus of frogs—a special experience that perfectly suits this place.
    Roos and Joost, thank you so much for your hospitality.
    P.S. Sleep with the doors open so you can wake up to the sounds of nature.

    We were there at the end of June. Count on burning yourself out of the cottage then because of the heat. There are no curtains, so getting out of bed at 05:15 in the morning is part of the deal. There are eye masks, but they are tight around your head and made of cheap plastic. We were there with our 1.5 year old son and he also had a hard time falling asleep. So you put your child in the bathroom, which smells musty so it is not very pleasant. I would not recommend this cottage in the summer and would highly recommend that the landlords install curtains throughout the property! We left anything but rested. Response from landlord: Dear, full of amazement we read your review. Indeed, at the check-out you expressed that you were thickly satisfied with your stay. When we asked if you had any tips, you indicated that it was light despite the curtains present. "But", you said, "with a child of 1.5 years old, you are used to it". We will take your tip to heart.

    The surroundings and the view from the cottage are beautiful.
