Nature and surroundings
Our nature house in the Alsace region of France is set in a peaceful, green environment of orchards, vineyards and forest. It overlooks an orchard, a vegetable garden and a wilder area where columbines, lemon balm and borage grow to the delight of bees. In winter, you can watch birds at the feeders, and in summer, the flight of bats, great spotted woodpeckers, titmice, nuthatches and tree creepers. Orschwihr is separated from the main road by a mythical limestone hill, the Bollenberg, well known to naturalists for its flora and fauna. Alsace is well served by road infrastructure, so you can travel quickly from south to north, with easy access to the mountains via Guebwiller and the Florival valley. Ecomusée and Eguisheim 15 mins, Colmar and Mulhouse 25 mins, Guebwiler 8 mins.

The house was cozy and fully equipped. Access via a remote-controlled gate was excellent. The car is safely parked on the property.
The only real problem we encountered was with the chairs. They weren’t very comfortable for us; my wife developed lower back pain and I had pain in the backs of my knees. That was because the edges of the seats pressed into your legs.
On the plus side, the house offers three places to relax outdoors. It’s also nice that all the windows have electric roller shades. The first week of our stay coincided with a heat wave, with temperatures rising above 40°. It stayed warm even at night. Fortunately, we had a standing fan, and the owner provided us with another one.Het huis was gezellig ingericht en van alles voorzien. De toegang via een op afstand te bedienen poort was uitstekend. De auto staat veilig op eigen terrein.
Het enige echte probleem dat wij ondervonden waren de stoelen. Deze waren voor ons niet erg prettig, mijn vrouw kreeg last van haar onderrug en ik van mijn knieholtes. Dat kwam omdat de randen van de zittingen in je benen drukken.
Daartegenover het pluspunt dat het huis drie plekken biedt om buiten te vertoeven. Ook fijn dat alle ramen voorzien zijn van electrisch bedienbare rolluiken. De eerste week van ons verblijf viel samen met een hittegolf met temperaturen tot boven de 40°. Ook 's nachts bleef het warm. Gelukkig hadden wij een staande ventilator en kregen er nog een bij van de eigenaar.Very quiet location on the outskirts of the village. There is occasional noise from a neighboring business (tractors, machinery, etc.). There was also some noise from the square where the World Cup soccer matches were shown on big screens. But that was sporadic and, of course, only happens once every few years.
Zeer rustig gelegen aan de rand van het dorp. Wel af en toe wat geluid van een aangrenzend bedrijf (tractoren, machines e.d.). Ook wat lawaai vanaf het plein waar het WK voetbal werd uitgezonden op grote schermen. Maar dat was sporadisch en natuurlijk eens in de zoveel jaar.

A cottage to pass through a ring. Very perfect and cared for.
Een huisje om door een ringetje te halen. Zeer perfect en verzorgd.
