Mountainbiking Bird watching Cycling Hiking

There used to be a boys’ boarding school on this wooded property. Guests stay in an apartment in the former main building. They park in front of their own entrance. Through their own door, guests enter their kitchen, which is equipped with a fridge-freezer, oven, French press, electric kettle, and induction cooktop. The spacious living room (23 m²) features a full-width window. The French doors open onto a balcony, offering a beautiful view of the garden with the woods directly behind it. In the “L”-shaped section of the room is a comfortable double bed (180x210). There is a wardrobe, a dining table with two chairs, a comfortable sofa, a coffee table, and a television with all standard channels. The apartment has free Wi-Fi. From the living/bedroom, you enter the private bathroom with a shower and a hair dryer. Linens, bathrobes, games, and tourist information are provided. Guests also have access to a private restroom in the entryway.

Nature and surroundings

The apartment has a private outdoor seating area for guests, located in the greenest spot in the garden. The Gimborn National Tree Museum is one and a half kilometers from the house. Hikers can easily continue on to the larger forested areas of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug (such as Beukenrode and the Kaapse Bossen). In the morning, you’ll be awakened by the birds. At night, an encounter with a badger or fox is not out of the question. You can also hear owls in the distance. The nearest restaurant with a large terrace is less than two kilometers away. Both Driebergen and Doorn offer great shopping, dining, and drinking options. For cyclists, paradise begins just around the corner: past Sterkenburg Castle, along the Langbroekerwetering, on to Amerongen and Rhenen. The hosts love the region where they live and are happy to offer advice. There is also information available in the room. Two city bikes are available to borrow for running errands or going out to dinner in Doorn or Driebergen.

    The place was very well-equipped, but there was no adequate sun protection (only blinds) and there were no window screens either. When I arrived, the outside temperature was 33 degrees, and inside it was 30 degrees.
    The owners were helpful and very friendly, but because of the mosquitoes, I went home early.

    Landlord’s response:
    Dear Mieke de Bock,
    we’d like to correct two points in your review.
    The first concerns the “torks,” as you call them. Shade cloths do not completely block out the sun, but we consider them pleasant sun protection and have heard the same from other guests. Furthermore, the living/bedroom has venetian blinds.
    As for the screen doors: there is indeed a screen door on the large window in the living/bedroom; there isn’t one on the small window in the kitchen. There was never a reason to install one there because no one before you ever complained about mosquitoes.
    Best regards, Mieke and Ronald’

    A nice stay, lovely quiet environment. Very nice and helpful hosts. It is a shared yard with the owners so you can sometimes see someone coming or going. The bedroom overlooks the driveway which sometimes made me feel less than complete privacy. You do have that of course, but a little less the full "alone" experience, good to realize. Plumbing and kitchen was top notch. Around the TV it was a bit dusty.Overall, I would definitely recommend it.Response from the landlord:Glad you recommend our Nature House to others. What a shame that you apparently had not read the description on the website in full. It clearly states there that it is a shared yard. On the "driveway" that you can see from the room, previous guests have spotted a deer or a squirrel on several occasions. And that dust by the TV will have been pollen. In spring, the trees release that. It's still a Nature House ;)

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    Beautiful surroundings with lots of bird sounds around you. Exquisite opportunity to listen to birds and walk or bike.

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
