Apartment in classic Villa - Utrecht+Amsterdam - excellent train connection

Our wonderful villa, constructed in 1937 with a distinctive architectural design, has been renovated to offer spacious and stylish accommodation. Nestled within a lovely private fenced garden spanning 4000 m2, the villa boasts a natural swimming pond, teak furniture, abundant flowers and plants, and a wooded area.

The private apartment, located on the second floor, includes:
• A 43 m2 room with a double bed, sofa, and dining table under a pitched roof.
• A compact 6 m2 kitchen.
• A 5 m2 bathroom with sink, shower, and toilet.
• An optional second room (for an additional fee) featuring a double bed, sofa, and desk, spanning 30 m2 under a pitched roof.

For one or 2-person bookings, you will have access to one room, a private bathroom, and a kitchen. If you desire an additional bedroom, this is available for an extra €20 per night, payable in cash upon arrival.
The price automatically includes the second room for 3 or 4 people bookings.
A tourist tax of €2.50 per person per night is payable in cash upon arrival.
Access to the charming apartment is via a staircase shared with the owners, followed by a private staircase.

Located in Bilthoven, a tree-lined town in the Province of Utrecht with a population of 22,000, our home is within easy reach of shops, walking and biking trails, swimming spots, golf courses, and dining options. The train station is a convenient 10-minute walk away.
Our property borders a nature reserve, accessible on foot within minutes, and a bicycle path runs right by our doorstep.

The Province of Utrecht offers a rich blend of nature, culture, and recreational opportunities. There is plenty to explore from the Utrechtse Heuvelrug National Park for woodland walks and cycling to the Vecht Lake area for water sports. Nearby historic cities like Utrecht and Amersfoort hold intriguing surprises, and the province boasts more castles and country estates than any other in the Netherlands.

Situated centrally in the Netherlands, our location allows easy access to explore the entire country. For example:
• Utrecht (10 minutes by car/25 minutes by bike/7 minutes by train) offers cultural landmarks, museums, shopping, canal cruises, and family-friendly attractions like KidZcity.
• Zeist (10 minutes by car/25 minutes by bike) boasts Zeist Castle, shopping, theaters, and swimming facilities.
• Amsterdam (50 minutes by car) offers a wealth of attractions, from museums to canal cruises.
• The Hague (55 minutes by car) features historic landmarks, theaters, beaches, and family attractions.
Further afield, the Efteling amusement park in Waalwijk is an hour's drive away.
These are just a few highlights, with six of the eight UNESCO World Heritage sites in the Netherlands within a 60-mile radius of our home.

Beyond the Netherlands, neighboring cities in Germany (Düsseldorf, Cologne) and Belgium (Antwerp, Brussels) are easily accessible. Paris is a 3.5-hour train ride away.

A delightful retreat!
Bob is incredibly kind, helpful, and accommodating. The property is beautiful. Everything you need to relax and recharge. Easy to access Utrecht and Amsterdam by train, but a lovely little village to stay in and explore by its own right. We would absolutely recommend visiting Bilthoven and staying with Bob…and will stay with him again if we find ourselves back in Netherlands.

Home away from home
We spent a couple weeks here and enjoyed it very much. The apartment had everything we needed to make our stay easy and comfortable. Bob was an excellent and friendly host, giving great recommendations, answering questions, or just to chat with. Would highly recommend staying here if you don't like bigger cities, but it's still close and easy enough to reach the cities if needed. Train station is within walking distance as well as other stores (groceries/restaurants) that may be needed. Highly recommended place!!

Stay at Bilthoven
We had a very pleasant stay here. Edu made us very welcome and the accommodation was of a high standard but would not suit someone with mobility issues due to the steep stairs. The location is ideal with great train connections to Utrecht. Great place to get around on your bike too.

Villa Utrecht
An excellent stay in every respect. The host went out of his way to help us, carrying bags, driving us to the station and also gave excellent guidance about what to do and what to see. Outstanding.

Wonderful location, host was very friendly and helpful with suggestions of great places to visit either by bike or train, the latter using the recommended NS app for train times and tickets. Would love to return.

A great base for exploring, comfortable and welcoming
The property was a great base for exploring a good part of The Netherlands. The rooms at Bilthoven were spacious and comfortable. Access via the steep stairs was an initial challenge, but these are common in Europe. Bob was a great host, providing good guidance on things to do and places to go. The house is situated close to the village centre and close the train station, allowing travel to Utrecht within 30-40 minutes. Nearby are woods, forest, statue park and walking/cycle paths,which were a pleasure to explore. Would recommend this place as a good place to stay - away from the busy tourist haunts.

Dream trip to the Netherlands
We booked this due to the area it was in and the larger beds available. We were pleasantly surprised at the great service from our host. It’s up two full flights of stairs, one a Dutch set, but once you are there you are there. Bob helped us with restaurants and laundry! He’s a wonderful host.

Great Rental Oasis
We were two friends who used both bedrooms and the amount of space and amenities were terrific. Bob was easy to deal with and super helpful every single day when he would greet us as we came down the stairs to head out for the day. We explored several areas of the Netherlands via train from Bilthoven. We would definitely recommend this rental to others.
