Nature house in Sint-Oedenrode

In the mood for a Lazy Weekend (through March, Fri–Sun with checkout at 1 p.m.) or a vacation in nature, in a place where you feel right at home? This unique vacation home has everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Originally a pavilion at the Floriade, the vacation home blends perfectly into the landscape with its glass facade, partially clad in wooden slats. From this delightful vacation home, you’ll enjoy stunning views of the rolling countryside and the Dommel River. The spacious home is furnished with comfortable furniture, features a cozy gas fireplace, air conditioning for hot summers, and a fully equipped kitchen, making even a longer stay enjoyable. There is a separate, lockable bike shed where you can charge your bikes’ batteries. The private garden features two terraces where you can enjoy both sun and shade, close to the standard-tree orchard, a natural pond, and the many birds. Who knows—you might even spot some roe deer passing by…

The vacation home is located on a property that borders the Dommel River. Along this meandering lowland stream, various walking and biking trails offer views of hedgerows, forests, pastures, hayfields, and ponds—in short, everything that characterizes the East Brabant landscape. As part of the Groene Woud National Landscape, the Vressels Bos lies on the other side of the road, featuring several ponds—including the Hazenputten and Oude Putten—and home to Scottish Highland cattle. Several hiking and biking routes (including MTB) start from the nature gateway “de Vresselse Hut,” which is part of https://www.naterse. North of the Vressels Bos lie the Dommelbeemden and the Moerkuilen, a striking peatland area in the Dommel Valley. A lovely walk through this area is rewarded with a magnificent view of the Dommel from the observation tower. In 2000, Sint-Oedenrode was named the greenest municipality in Europe—and for good reason. For nature lovers, there’s plenty to explore right from the vacation home and in the immediate vicinity!
