Chalet

Forest House the Butterfly


Boshuisje de Vlinder is uniquely situated in the middle of the Groesbeek forest, on the edge of the Mookerheide and is located on the outskirts of a small-scale holiday park. De Vlinder is an oasis of peace and offers a lot of privacy.

De Vlinder can also be booked in combination with forest cottage Libelle wellness for family or friends who want to go out together in their own accommodation (2 x 2 p.). When booking both cottages for a week in the same period, a discount of 5% applies, which can be deducted from the deposit.

For the Libelle wellness see the information there. The living room with open kitchen of the Libelle is just as attractive but more compact than the Vlinder. On the other hand, the Libelle is equipped with a luxurious, spacious bathroom in Hammam atmosphere with whirlpool bath and steam cabin with aroma and light therapy and separate bedroom.

The walking and cycling possibilities are endless (including mountain biking).
Bustling Nijmegen is just around the corner and Germany is also a stone's throw away. There are many restaurants in the area with something for everyone.
Within walking distance of forest café de Zweef for a nice cup of coffee or a delicious lunch. From the Sint Jansberg with the adjacent restaurant De Diepen you can walk or cycle straight into the Reichswald. A visit to  Orientalis or the Freedom Museum is also worthwhile.
Another nice trip is the Draisine, the train bike with which you can cycle from Groesbeek to Kranenburg or Kleve on the old train tracks surrounded by green nature. Next to the Draisine is the excellent restaurant de Spil to enjoy a well-deserved lunch or dinner. 
Furthermore, various water sports options, wine tastings, clay pigeon shooting, gliding or just enjoying the wooded nature and lovely walks on the heath.

The house is located on a plot of 321 m2 and is bright with a living room of 56 m2 that is attractively furnished with comfortable seating furniture and a wood stove, flat screen TV, WIFI, laptop corner, a cozy dining area, antique wardrobe, fully equipped open kitchen, equipped with a fridge and freezer, dishwasher, oven, microwave, gas stove with 5 burners, extractor hood, coffee maker and everything needed to cook well and a sleeping area with a bed of 2.00 x 1.40 with a good mattress for a good night's sleep. The 2 skylights provide extra light in the house.

Furthermore, a separate bathroom with shower, toilet, sink and towel radiator.

The entire house is equipped with central heating.
In the utility room there is a washing machine, dryer, drying rack, an ironing board and an iron.

In the forest garden you can relax on the terrace with a garden set with adjustable wooden garden chairs and cushions. Small electric barbecue with accessories available.

On the property there is a large parking lot and a shed for possibly. cycle.

My name is Nel and I am the owner of the Vlinder forest house and the adjacent Libelle wellness forest house. The cottages have a unique location in the middle of nature. The Dragonfly is more compact than the Butterfly. On the other hand, the Libelle is equipped with a bathroom with whirlpool bath and steam cabin in hammam atmosphere. I also regularly stay in both houses, because the oasis of peace in the middle of the lush green of the forest is a unique experience. I would like to welcome everyone who wants to experience this!
