Holiday home in nature on the Utrecht Hill Ridge

And that, of course, opens up a lot of possibilities. For example, you can walk, bike and enjoy miles of nature from your holiday home. But there is more to it than just nature. 

Culture on the Utrecht Hill Ridge 

There is also a lot of culture in the area near our holiday home in nature. Part of this are the many manors and castles. Indeed, at the end of the 17th century a great number of merchants moved to the Utrecht Hill Ridge. They built their country houses here in large numbers to escape the city in the summer and retreat to nature. These country houses began relatively modest, but quickly grew into large country houses with imposing gardens. And that is what makes the Utrecht Hill Ridge such a unique area. Will you come and discover it for yourself during your holiday in a holiday home in nature?
