Over Eikenhorst - Residence De Eese

The Residence De Eese is an ancient estate, which is partly still recognizable, for example, by the groups of beech trees, some of which are several hundreds of years old and by the noble house of the forest ranger, which was originally called "Huize De Kom" and is now rented as a groups accommodation. Even the old house of the coach man is still standing. After paving the Bultweg in 1871 this was where you had to pay a toll. When the forest pond on the property was created some 140 years ago the earth that was dug out and just left in a heap became typical of the area; hence the local name "De Bult" (hump, bump). The Residence De Eese is a beautiful and hospitable park in a wooded area which is suitable for young and old as well as for disabled persons. The area is ideal for nature lovers and offers endless recreational opportunities. The nearby prince's estate De Eese covers an area of 800 hectares touching three different provinces, namely Overijssel, Drenthe and Friesland and is also the summer residence of the Dutch royal family. Unfortunately it is not possible to visit the property, but with a bit of luck, you can catch a glimpse of the royal family. If you would like to spend your holidays in Soestdijk or in Drakensteyn, then you have come to the right place at the Residence de Eese and you will certainly have a coffee or dinner at Restaurant Maxima in the park. De Eikenhorst is a luxuriously furnished bungalow. You dispose of a fully equipped kitchen with microwave and refrigerator with icebox. This bungalow is ideal for families with children. The property is surrounded by a beautiful green hedge, so that your children don't have access to the great forest pond. Of course, you can still go and feed the ducks at the pond, because it is just a short walk away from your accommodation. The terrace is spacious and equipped with garden furniture. The bungalow is suitable for up to 6 persons. If you plan to bring your pet, please ask at HappyHome by email or by phone, if this is possible.
