Nature and surroundings

On the patio and in the garden, you can immediately enjoy the peace and quiet, the blossoming fruit trees, the birdsong, the buzzing of the bees visiting the garden flowers, and—at dusk, with a little luck—spot a badger crossing the meadows. The Horstergrub, the Gulp Valley, the Belgian Voer Region, the Savelsbos, or the Margraten Plateau offer a true experience for nature lovers in every season. These varied landscapes are home to a wealth of habitats where specific plants and animals—often unique to the Netherlands—thrive. The surroundings of this nature house simply invite you to go for a walk. Recreational cyclists, competitive cyclists, and mountain bikers alike will find plenty to enjoy in our area. This nature house is centrally located in the Aachen–Maastricht–Liège triangle. Thanks to its proximity to these cities—which also share a rich history—our guests can choose from a wide range of cultural activities.

    We were warmly welcomed with coffee and fruit tart by our hospitable host, Philippe. The cottage is cozily furnished and clean. It has everything you need for a pleasant stay, along with plenty of storage space. Comfortable beds. The shower is good with a strong stream of water. One small improvement would be to replace the shower/bathtub faucet with a thermostatic faucet. What I really liked were the pieces of furniture on the patio: two comfortable lounge chairs, along with a bench and a small table with chairs for dining. There’s also plenty of information about the area in the house, and Philippe has put together a few nice hiking routes.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The cottage is situated in a beautiful setting. It’s on a dead-end street closed to car traffic, next to a quiet area. The cottage has a lovely terrace in a beautiful garden with a view of the Limburg hills. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the birds. It’s a wonderful area for hiking and biking. In addition to the beautiful natural surroundings, there are also charming villages in the area. We highly recommend a visit to the flint mine in Rijckholt. The guide shares a lot about the history of the area and its natural environment.

    A neat little cottage with a warm welcome from the owner, Philippe.
    The furniture is a bit dated, but it suits the location. We were allowed to store our bikes in the shed. We spent most of our time outdoors because of the weather (an average of 30 degrees). Beautiful view from the terrace.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    It’s a nice little house.
    From the terrace, there’s a beautiful view of the meadows and hills.
    We spotted a badger from a distance. We had a wonderful ride (on electric bikes) over the hills to Valkenburg, Gulpen, and Vaals.

    People who choose nature houses often do so because of the peace and quiet and the natural surroundings. Since the house is located near the Belgian Voer Region, here’s another tip: The Voer Region is just as beautiful as South Limburg, but nice and quiet and not as manicured as in the Netherlands. Our best experience was in and around the hamlet of Veurs (the Veurs Valley). Beautiful nature, orchids in the spring, and a cluster of well-maintained half-timbered houses—plus it’s very quiet with little traffic in the built-up area.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    A pleasant stay, with friendly people who are approachable but definitely not pushy. Plenty of privacy. I did miss having hooks in the kitchen area to hang towels.
