Our Neighbourhood
Nearest Airport: Schiphol, Amsterdam -
Bunnik is a quiet and small village on the borders of the river 'Kromme Rijn'. You can walk along those borders to Utrecht in 2,5 hours.
Bunnik has one supermarket and a number of small shops. It also has a railway station which is less than 10 minutes walking from our house. By train it takes 8 minutes to come to the centre of Utrecht and 1 hour to the centre of Amsterdam. To Utrecht you can also go by bike, of course. Then you need half an hour to come there.
Bunnik is close to the 'Utrechtse heuvelrug', where you find beautiful woods and nature for walking and biking.
There are several golfcourses in the surroundings.
The Netherlands are specially designed for bicycles!

BE1006875Wij hebben een erg leuke vakantie gehad. De gemeente Bunnik, waar we verbleven ligt slechts op enkele kilometers van Utrecht. Bunnik is een aangename plaats om te wonen. Winkels, restaurants en het treinstation zijn op loopafstand. De trein naar Utrecht duurt slechts enkele minuten.
Het huis met tuin is gezellig en met veel smaak ingericht. Het ontbrak ons aan niets.
Utrecht met zijn vele grachten is ook de moeite waard om te bezoeken. Wij fietsten en wandelden langs de Kromme Rijn en bezochten een arboretum met zeldzame bomen en ook de Botanische tuinen van de universiteit.
Wij hebben enkel positieve herinneringen aan deze huisruil.

GB092438We really enjoyed our stay in Holland.. We took the train to visit the bulb fields and also Amsterdam. We enjoyed the use of the bicycles provided to make trips on the flat cycle tracks in the countryside around the town.
