Three and a half hours drive from Utrecht but really in France, we rent this cottage with fully fenced garden of over 2,000 m2. At the edge of a small village where, completely French, sometimes a rooster crows or the dog barks but otherwise you only hear birds or village sounds. The terrace invites to long evenings with a bbq or fire and when it gets cooler, the wood stove inside (the basic heating is electric). The house is fully insulated and equipped with new electricity, plumbing and kitchen but where possible the original parts have been preserved. The chimney dates from 1788, the tiled floor (bring slippers!) and beams have been restored. There are six made beds but a crib or crib could be added. And there are plenty of towels and other textiles. What you usually don't think about beforehand: there are rarely, if ever, mosquitoes here.... From early June through September, arrivals and departures are on Saturdays only.
Nature and surroundings
The cottage borders the French Ardennes. The area has something of the south of Limburg: gently rolling hills, wooded banks, lakes and streams, the forest is interspersed with herb-rich meadows with cows and sheep. Here you can enjoy hiking, biking or motorcycling (motorcycles can be covered). At 6 minutes by car is a swimming lake that you mostly have for yourself. And yes, you really are in France: in the morning to the bakery for croissants and baguette, complaining about roosters or other village noises is 'city', it is more common to go out for lunch than out for dinner, no one speaks anything but French, in summer there are brocantes, jeux de boules (with wooden balls) and parties. And in winter it is quiet, sometimes foggy and muddy but inside the wood stove is burning.
