BoHo - Jacuzzi, Sauna, BBQ, Garden close to Amsterdam & Utrecht - Sleeps 14

Hi! I am Nicolette and my kids and me live since June 2016 on this fantastic terrain.
We love living in this fantastic place, which we really like to share with other people. I like to travel and my favorite countries are Thailand & Israel. I personally like it very much to get guests, because it keeps me organized and makes me optimize the house 100%. It is easier to make myself in the DO modus for others, than for myself. I hope you get the same cosy, luxury, warm energy as we do, staying here. You are very welcome!

Nestled in the Dutch province of Utrecht, the small village of Kockengen has a rich history dating back to the Middle Ages. Despite its size, Kockengen played a crucial role in the development of the region's agriculture and trade, and remnants of its past can still be seen in the village's charming architecture and quaint streets.

HISTORY, ART, AND CULTURE
Visitors can explore the opulent De Haar Castle, which dates back to the 14th century and was extensively restored in the late 19th century. The castle itself is a masterpiece of Gothic and Renaissance architecture, with a moat, drawbridge, and imposing towers that give it a fairytale-like appearance.
History and culture are also abundant in the region, with the magnificent Dom Tower in Utrecht standing as a symbol of the city's rich history. The tower, which dates back to the 14th century, is the tallest church tower in the Netherlands and offers spectacular panoramic views of the city and its surroundings from its summit.

Art and culture lovers will also find plenty to explore, with the Museum Catharijneconvent housing a vast collection of religious artifacts and art from the Middle Ages to the present day. Meanwhile, the Museum Oud Amelisweerd in nearby Bunnik showcases an impressive collection of Chinese and East Asian art and artifacts in a beautifully restored 18th-century country house.

OUTDOOR RECREATION
For those seeking outdoor adventure, the Utrechtse Heuvelrug National Park offers an idyllic setting of rolling hills, verdant forests, and heathlands, which make for fantastic hiking, cycling, and wildlife spotting opportunities. The park covers over 13,000 hectares and is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, including red deer, foxes, and various bird species.
Water sports enthusiasts will love the nearby Loosdrechtse Plassen, a network of lakes and waterways that offer a range of activities, from boating and swimming to fishing and sunbathing on the beach.
