"A Vintage Bed & Breakfast"

The sitting room of the suite overlooks the back of the house. From the terrace you can see sycamores and the old bakhuisje [an old farm baking house]. Further back is a pond with a backdrop of rhododendrons, lime trees and, in the far distance, a forest. The view from the front of bedroom offers more natural views of the estate with grazing Scottish Highland cattle and forest.

There is only one bed and breakfast suite available so guests have exclusive use of facilities. Although the suite is big enough to accommodate a small family, places are limited to two guests at any one time, offering a perfect retreat for couples wishing to escape their hectic lives and find the perfect setting for a few days of rest and maybe even a bit of romance. In addition to the living room and bedroom, with its romantic bed and decorative wooden church bench - guests can also hire an adjoining room featuring a private cinema.  An old pulpit staircase connects the bedroom to the bathroom and toilet on the ground floor and near the stairs is a wooden angel that gives the Bed & Breakfast its name: In den Engel.

Clearly, a great deal of thought goes into providing guests with an unforgettable experience. "We try to be flexible because our primary objective is to deliver a great day to our guests," explains Ineke who, in the morning, will prepare a well-stocked picnic basket, complete with blanket, to ensure that guests can lunch in style.

 

Complementing the romantic vintage car experience, neck and head scarves are offered to female guests, whilst for the men driving caps are made available.
