Our HOUSE is a typical rather small but cosy Dutch row house in Etten-Leur, in an ordinary neighbourhood.
Starting from the top:
We sleep on the ATTIC at the hight of the trees. It is well isolated so that it’s also fine to sleep there on hot summer days. We enjoy the sound of the rain, the blue sky and at night the stars :)
On the 1ST FLOOR we have 1 bed room, 1 play room and a dressing room. In the playroom there is a sofa where we can put a proper mattress on top for comfortable sleeping. In the bathroom there is a bath tub and a shower. We do have a whirlpool which you can use.
On the GROUND FLOOR you can sit on our comfortable sofa viewing the garden or you can in the kitchen by the window and enjoy a nice coffee from our espresso machine. We love the coffee bar feeling when we sit by the window. You can see people passing by going to work, the kindergarden, biking to the city center ...
We do have a small GARDEN with a sand pit, a tepee, garden furniture, lots of toys, …

Our boys sleep on the 1st FLOOR in their bedroom. There is one bed for grown-ups and one bed where our 2-year-old sleeps.

Neighbourhood
ETTEN-LEUR is a small village. We like to cycle along the water, passing one mill that is still used to grind flour (which you can purchase there) to the black mill where we love to have a wine or coffee while the kids play at the playground.
On Wednesdays we like to go to the market in the city centre where you can eat fresh stroopwafel, buy fresh cheese, fish or whatever you like.
With our young 2 boys we also enjoy visiting two farms close by where you can get fresh ice cream, see animals or take short walks.
Only 10 km away is the city centre of BREDA. In Breda you can do many things: Beautiful centre with coffees, restaurants, shops, museums … and from the station in Breda you can easily take trains to UTRECHT (1:07), AMSTERDAM (1:08), ANTWERP (0:34), ROTTERDAM (0:23) and many other places (The coast in Zeeland (1h), go horse riding in the Drunense Duinen, rent a boat at the Biesbosch, visit Kinderdijk …
Nearest airport
The Netherlands are not a big country, so you can get here easily by plane or train.
By plane: Amsterdam & Rotterdam - 120 km & 70 km
By train you would most likely go to Breda and then take a train from there to Etten-Leur
Getting around
The train station in Etten-Leur is 2 km from us and we bike there if we use the train. To get to the nearest supermarket you walk along the bike pass for 600 m :)
