Unique and generous vacation home on easily accessible but special and quiet place in National Park de Biesbosch, in the middle of a nature reserve full of birds, wild horses and Scottish Highlanders. The location of the apartment guarantees breathtaking sunsets in all seasons. To be admired from the apartment, the accompanying garden or your private hot tub and sauna. The luxury apartment is part of a large black-wood barn dating from 1905. The original beams and details in the apartment give it a monumental spaciousness. The kitchen is fully equipped and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. This barn has been completely restored and thoroughly preserved by the owner in recent years. The apartment has infrared heating. To reach the living floor you have to climb two well-walkable stairs (both 16 steps). The sleeping area has a fine and silent ceiling fan above the bed.
Nature and surroundings
The barn stands on an ancient river dune in the Noordwaard floodplain and is surrounded year-round by incredible numbers of birds of the most diverse species. For bird lovers, this place is a paradise. Spoonbills, purple heron, osprey, bald eagle, all kinds of geese and waders, and at night the sound of an eagle owl or bittern... Your apartment has a private garden (400 m2) overlooking this nature reserve. Here is your own barrel sauna and a wood-fired hot tub. You can use the hot tub for a fee of 30 euros per day and 10 euros for the sauna. The wood to fire the hot tub stove is stocked in the woodshed next to the tub. Instructions for use of hot tub and sauna can be found in the information folder in the apartment. Basic amenities are provided in the sauna but you must provide your own sauna towel or bathrobe and slippers.

Paul is a friendly host who entrusts the apartment to you with complete confidence. The apartment is very well-maintained, tidy, and beautifully decorated. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the necessary utensils and appliances, so it’s great for cooking your own meals, and the view is fantastic.
The hot tub (with a view of the little owl) and the sauna were great. Building your own fire is part of the experience! They’re tucked away in a corner of the yard, but the area is somewhat secluded, so you won’t be bothered by anyone.
Highly recommended!Paul is een gemoedelijke gastheer die het appartement in volle vertrouwen overlevert. Het appartement is erg verzorgd, netjes en mooi ingericht. De keuken is van alle materiaal en toestellen voorzien, dus fijn om zelf te koken en het uitzicht is fantastisch.
De hottub (met zicht op de steenuil) en de sauna waren super. Zelf een vuurtje maken hoort bij de ervaring! Ze liggen in een hoekje op het erf, maar het is wat afgesloten, dus je hebt van niemand last.
Echt een aanrader!It's a really beautiful spot. You don't notice the road, which is still fairly close by, at all, and the streetlight even attracts a little owl in the evening—so it's actually a bonus.
Het is een supermooie plek. Van de weg die nog redelijk dichtbij ligt, heb je helemaal geen last en de lantaarnpaal lokt ‘s avonds zelfs een steenuil, dus zelfs een meerwaarde.

Two stairs up and then you are at the apartment. Private entrance. Very tastefully decorated modern what you do not expect in this old house. Fully equipped!
Twee trappen omhoog en dan ben je bij het appartement. Eigen ingang. Zeer smaakvol ingericht modern wat je niet verwacht in dit oude huis. Van alle gemakken voorzien!
Beautiful old farmhouse from 1900 just outside the town of werkendam. Very friendly host. We had the upstairs apartment. Beautifully tastefully decorated! Sauna pod and hot tub in the yard of the host. Lots of birds around the yard and very close to the beautiful nature reserve Biesbosch.
Prachtige oude boerderij uit 1900 net buiten het plaatsje werkendam. Zeer vriendelijke gastheer. Wij hadden het boven appartement. Prachtig smaakvol ingericht! Van alle gemakken voorzien en heel mooi uitzicht.
Sauna pod en hottub op het erf van de gastheer. Heel veel vogels om het erf en zeer dichtbij het prachtige natuurgebied de Biesbosch.This text is automatically translated.
