Holiday home Dorpswoning Het TolhuisLeende - Noord-Brabant - Netherlands (NL-19258)

Description

This village house was built in 1868. It originally served as a toll house on the road between Weert and Eindhoven. The most recent residents have transformed the surrounding grounds into a park-like garden with, among other things, more than 200 Dutch magnolia varieties and beautiful ceramic art objects.

Despite its age, the house itself is fully equipped. The renovation has been carried out with great attention to the character of the house and the many old details.

Village house Het Tolhuis is located in the hamlet of Zevenhuizen on an exit road from the small Brabant village of Leende. With the Leenderbos on one side and the Strabrechtse Heide on the other, there is plenty of choice of cycling and walking routes.

The enormous garden of Het Tolhuis is well known locally. The many special plants and tree species are cared for by a grandson of the grower, who lives on the site for this purpose. His cottage is a good distance from the main house and is protected by a hedge. A few volunteers also work in the garden for a few hours every week.

Unique is restaurant Sabero on the other side of the road. This small-scale living room restaurant is run by star chef Nico Boreas and his wife Sonja. They previously operated Boreas** (now Tribeca) in Heeze and Sabero** in Roermond.

Holidaying in Village House Het Tolhuis means staying in a unique environment, in a beautiful part of cozy Brabant.
