A unique and spacious vacation home in an easily accessible yet special and quiet location in De Biesbosch National Park, nestled in a nature reserve teeming with birds, wild horses, and Scottish Highland cattle. The apartment’s location guarantees breathtaking sunsets in every season. You can admire them from the apartment, the adjoining garden, or your private hot tub and sauna. The luxurious apartment is part of a large black-wood farmhouse barn dating from 1905. The original beams and details in the apartment give the space a historic, spacious feel. The kitchen is fully equipped and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. In recent years, the owner has completely restored this barn and thoroughly preserved it. The apartment features infrared heating. To reach the living area, you’ll need to climb two easily navigable flights of stairs (16 steps each). The sleeping area has a pleasant and quiet ceiling fan above the bed.
Nature and surroundings
The barn stands on an ancient river dune in the floodplain of the Noordwaard 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 herons, ospreys, bald eagles, all kinds of geese and waders, and at night the call of an eagle owl or bittern... Your apartment has a private garden (400 m²) overlooking this nature reserve. Here you’ll find your own barrel sauna and a wood-fired hot tub. You can use the hot tub for a fee of 35 euros per day and the sauna for 15 euros. The wood to fuel the hot tub stove is stocked in the woodshed next to the tub. Instructions for using the hot tub and sauna can be found in the information folder in the apartment. Basic amenities are provided in the sauna, but you must bring your own sauna towel, 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.
