Description
Our fantastic house is nestled in the middle of the forest, yet still close to Utrecht. We have a large garden where our three dogs can run around freely, a vegetable garden, and a greenhouse where we grow our vegetables. We, Christophe and Marina, live here with our eldest daughter, Liline, who herself traveled through Australia as a workawayer.
