Nature and surroundings

During your stay in this spacious, peaceful nature house, you’ll forget all your worries. You’ll be staying 1.5 km from Wortel-kolonie, a true hiker’s paradise; this nature reserve is the first cultural landscape to be listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, you can enjoy wonderful walks and bike rides. Many trails crisscross this beautiful area. The cottage is located 5.5 km from the town of Hoogstraten, known for its strawberries. It also offers numerous attractions and delightful restaurants. Baarle-Hertog/Nassau is 9 km from Cottage 9. This is perhaps the most remarkable village in the world. The reason: the village consists of no fewer than 30 small enclaves of Belgium and the Netherlands intertwined. Of the 64 enclaves worldwide, nearly half are located here! Baarle-Hertog-Nassau is therefore not located exactly on the border between the Netherlands and Belgium, where the border would run through a single street. Here, the border crisscrosses roads, gardens, and even houses. For example, you’ll find a house here with both a Dutch and a Belgian house number.

    Smooth contact with the owner, a forgotten item she sent back afterwards. Explanation was clear, if we had questions we could quickly send message. Hiking area nearby.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    Cozy cottage, sufficiently large. Spacious outdoor space. We only stayed there for a weekend, but would also be very suitable for a week.

    House met all expectations and the owner is very nice, service-oriented and helpful. Only one tip: it would be nicer if the toilets were not in the bathroom, but separate.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Very nice, spacious and clean house with very large private garden which is very tastefully decorated with cozy sitting areas everywhere, BBQ etc. Very nice surroundings with lots of nature while all amenities are accessible in just a few car minutes. There is much more to do as the activities listed below such as bouldering and climbing, golfing, escape trips etc etc.

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.
