Holiday house

Haus an der Vidrus Vechte


Vidrus once was, according to legend, the name of the Vecht. Until Prince Vechtan drowned during a crusade in Vidrus and Vidrus was renamed in his honor in the Vecht.

And there, 100 meters from the Vecht, our beautiful vacation home. You can linger here with 9 people. The bedrooms are spacious and cozy and the kitchen is fully equipped. The house has a large covered balcony and several terraces on the ground. Also, a fire pit and BBQ for summer evenings present.

Do you ride? With us you can take your horses. We have a large walk-stable of 6x5 meters so horses who know each other can decide whether they want zijn.Wat's more fun than sitting in the garden with a drink and you see horses scurrying happy in front of you in the pasture inside or outside yourself ? The horseback riders are delicious. For hours along the Vecht or paths on the boulevards. Or a multi-day trek through the Itter Heather Becker supervised?

Do you like bikes? The municipality Emlichheim was named the most bicycle-friendly town in Lower Saxony. Cycle routes run right before the door and pull the ferry Fähre Harm, come to the Vecht, you should have done once.
Make trips or just taking the bike to go somewhere that is very popular here. And you never really pedaling again just to recharge with Kaffee und Kuchen, which is also yet affordable here. Quite far in Germany
The house has a large garage where you can safely park your bike and charge.

With the ´Fietsenbus´ you can go all around the Grafschaft Bentheim. Just put your bike at the bus en sit down.
 
The Emmelkamp tour crosses borders. Germany and the Netherlands, a super fun trip that can be followed from the house.

Kunstwegen- Vechtetalroute are getting along for a while. At the Kunswegen tour you´ll see 60 different artwork that tell you something about the area. In fact, the largest museum in Europe.

The Vechtetalroute runs from the beginning of the river Vechte in Darfeld to Zwolle (the Netherlands) where the Vecht flows into the IJsselmeer.

The United Countries Tour performs over smuggling routes and pioneer trails. Groningen, Drenthe, Emsland and Bentheim are connected by this cyclingtour. 

Throughout our area, you can do a lot, a lot of cycling. You´ll find a lot of picnic huts where you can rest and consume your self brought food and drinks.

Emlichheim has been titled as the most bicycle-friendly town, and you can choose your own routes and everything is clearly signposted. Haus Vidrus is located near the ferry Fähre Harm.








After 30 km. arriving on horseback at Haus an der Vidrus an der Vechte is a party. The horses could walk in the spacious pastures with a shelter shed and got hay,. We moved around a large fire dish under the old oak tree. We enjoyed the views, the cozy fire and drinks from the Pipowagen. Once recovered, we were making dinner in the kitchen and outside on the fire. Not too late we went to bed (after all, we had to ride back the next day). The spacious bedrooms with comfortable beds did us good after a long hard day. Fall asleep to the sound of snorting horses under my bedroom window is quite special. In the distance, sounded an owl. The next morning there was a full breakfast. With good soil we could drive back. I hope I will often be able to make this trip. Annemui Essink
