Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

In the midst of green, surrounded by trees, opposite of the forest lies our house. It is a midcentury modern bungalow (150m2) with a spacious garden (1300m2) that has a lot of privacy. There's many birds in our garden. It's very peaceful. A true vacation home. Even though it's our main house :-) The house is designed by a Dutch architect and has a nice feel and a lot of light. The neighborhood is quiet and from our doorstep you walk directly into the forest. The house is taken good care of and being renovated step by step. There's 3 bedrooms, a playroom and a study. And of course all the usual spaces. We hope you will feel at home!

Bennekom is a small town in the Veluwe area. Our town know a lot of facilities like shops, restaurants, a beautiful outdoor swimming pool etc. We are close to a central train station (Ede-Wageningen) from where direct trains go to Amsterdam central station (50min), Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (50 min), Utrecht (20 min), Arnhem (15 min), Amersfoort (40 min) etc. Major highways are also closeby. We can provide bikes for you and your family (adult and/or children's bikes).

(You may wonder if there's any noise from the highway, but barely! Mainly because of all the trees).

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Our house is in a quiet street. At the opposite of our street there's the forest so we are basically surrounded by trees. We have a big garden. So do the houses around us, so there's a lot of privacy. Our town Bennekom is a nice middlesized town. All the amenities are here (supermarkets, shops, Michel star restaurant, cafe's etc.).

We live in the Veluwe area, which features many different landscapes, including woodland, heath, some small lakes and Europe's largest sand drifts. Closeby is the Kroller Muller museum with a huge art collection which includes the second-largest collection of Van Gogh’s artworks in the world.

An intercity train station is closeby. By train it's about 50 minutes to Amsterdam city centre, 20 min to Utrecht and 10 to Arnhem.

Our Preferences

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules

We love our house and try to take good care of it. Just like we would do with any house that we would visit! We expect people to do so as well :-)
We have two very sweet cats (Genji and Mura). It'd be great if you could care of them. But if you won't or can't - just tell us and we'll find a solution.
