A charming detached rural hut in the middle of nature with a view of the adjacent wipwater mill. This cottage is located in the beautiful walking area "Zouweboezem", a protected nature reserve with many special birds and plants. Here, for example, the largest purple quarry colony in Europe is breeding here. Furthermore, the nature house is close to the interesting old towns of Utrecht, Leerdam and Gorichem within a radius of 30 kilometers. Wake up with bird song. During the day, admire the beautiful nature reserve via the walking routes or via the sea canoes that are rented from the landlords and see the sun on the waterfront in the evening. You have lots of privacy, a large garden with picnic table, a wood stove and lots of light.

The most beautiful nature reserve of the Vijfheerenlanden. Once upon a time the windmills on the Zederikkade added the excess polder water to these reed beds. In the past, these were the production plots for the thatched that made the well-known thatched roofs for farmsteads. Now the vast marshy and reed fields are the domain of the largest breeding colony of the purple heron in our country. Here also marsh birds such as the black tern, porcupine, cetti's singer, mustache and harrier. The Zouweboezem forms a whole with the adjacent duck decoy De Zouwe, Het Hoenderwiel and polder Achthoven. Grasslands, water and reed plots alternate and together form one large nature reserve. The walk connects to the hiking opportunities in the adjacent Achthoven polder. There are also several viewpoints. There is a platform path through the reedland, often marsh birds can be seen up close. There are many hiking trails that you can start from this address. The Groot Rivierenpad also runs past the house. There are also shorter routes such as the grasshopper route and the listening and walking route that runs partly along the banks of the Lek. But of course you can also canoe and discover the beautiful area of ​​the Zouweboezem and sail towards the Lek or towards Arkel and here the Linge. In addition, it is of course a beautiful cycling area so you have a greater range and for example to Kinderdijk or can sail over with the ferry at Ameide.
