Nature and surroundings

It is a fort that is part of the New Dutch Waterline, and is located in Vuren in the municipality of West Betuwe in the Dutch province of Gelderland. The fort was built in 1844 on the Waaldijk, it served to protect Gorinchem and to prevent the enemy from moving west. A bombproof tower was built on top of the fort in 1847-1849. A moat was dug around the tower, after which it could only be reached by a drawbridge. In 1873-1879, the bombproof tower was partially demolished because it was too vulnerable. The top floor was removed and the contrescarp gallery was added. The tower fort, contrescarp gallery and barracks housed up to 420 men and 30 pieces of artillery. The fort at Vuren would be used during the various mobilizations and suffered a German air attack in 1940.

    Wonderful stay in this bunker, super renovated really incredibly beautiful. We will come back again anyway.Too bad you are not really welcomed, or said hello.
    Something really needs to be done about the door with the residence next door. You hear everything from each other.
    From the breakfast we expected a little more.

    Beautiful lodge, beautifully decorated and the view from the bathroom is really fantastic. Friendly reception, also in coronary. Only downside is that in the living room you can hear the neighbors.

    A real experience to sleep in such an old fort. Beautiful lodges made, fully furnished. Unique. Interior well adapted to the environment of bunkers, nice and tough. Really well done. Sounds a bit hollow though.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    Beautiful surroundings, The Bommelerwaard, Slot Loevestein and a very nice fortified town of Gorinchem. Lovely stay along the river Waal.
