    It was a wonderful weekend in this cozy cottage. Together with partner and the dog a lot of walking and in the omhiende garden enjoyed the tranquility in the sun. The fenced garden made it perfect for the dog. Horse in the meadow next door made it complete. Garderen is within walking distance to get an ice cream after dinner.

    All good

    Fine Easter weekend enjoyed with my partner, and my sister's dog that we had staying with. Enjoyed sitting in the garden and walking in the woods. Shopping in Garderen and Putten, totally fine. Eaten at Boshuis Drie, delicious. The horse in the meadow near the house is cozy and completes the picture. Good heating when needed. Good bed. Cozy and spacious house.
