5x special overnight stays in and around Breda

Huize Druivelaar is hidden behind the houses of an old street in Breda. The accommodation is invisible from the street and built in an old farmhouse from 1902. As soon as you enter through the gate, you step into a world full of greenery. In the garden, all you hear are singing birds and the rustling of leaves. The B&B has a total of two luxurious and comfortable rooms. The rooms are adjacent to the hundred-year-old grape orchard where the first grape vines still grow.

A city garden of no less than 2600 square metres surrounds the B&B. Here you can pick delicious fresh fruit such as raspberries, Japanese wine berries, blackberries, gooseberries and apples in summer. The garden has a fairy-tale atmosphere and hidden corners everywhere where you can enjoy the peace and quiet. After a day of walking through Breda, relax in the hot tub. At breakfast you will be pampered one more time. Owners Chantal and Rutger prepare a sumptuous breakfast for you made from organic local produce.

Hidden in a city garden in the Ginneken district of Breda is the special accommodation Huisje Breda. Within walking distance of the attractive city centre, it is a lovely place to stay. Let the morning sun shine on your face from the veranda or plop down on the comfortable sofa. Little house Breda is equipped with a fine dose of comfort so that you will not lack anything during your stay. Want to go out by bike? Perfect! Because during your stay, you can make use of the two city bikes.

Around the corner are cosy bars such as Café Noir or wine bar Petit Bardot. But nature lovers will also enjoy themselves. The Markdal and Mastbos are just around the corner and are beautiful areas for a nice walk or bike ride. In short, if you choose to spend a special night in Breda, Huisje Breda is the right choice.

Time to escape the hectic pace of everyday life and enjoy peaceful and serene surroundings. Imagine yourself; your own cosy cottage surrounded by green meadows and beautiful trees. That is exactly what you can expect at 'Het Raatshuisje'. This luxury suite features a beautiful veranda and a private terrace. Het Raatshuisje is a stone's throw from several beautiful forests, the picturesque river Mark, and the bustling city of Breda and the charming village of Ulvenhout.

Enjoy ultimate privacy and explore the surroundings on foot or by bike, experiencing the true rural feeling. You can even bring your own horse to explore the various forests that are a short walk from the cottage. Relax and enjoy the hospitality of the Burgundian Brabant life. The horses, ouessant sheep and fruit orchards will make you feel like you are in another world. Whether you like an active holiday or just want to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet, at Het Raatshuisje you will find your inner peace.

Spending the night in a national monument is of course a must when we talk about special stays in Breda. This is possible in the new Hotel Botanique in the centre of Breda. Located in the Chassé Barracks is this luxury hotel. This barracks is the original building of the vast military complex that was located on the east side of Breda. Built in 1898, it looks a bit like a small castle.

But not only the exterior of this building is worth seeing. Each room is decorated with an awful lot of care and a good dose of luxury. After a good night's sleep, walk downstairs and step straight into the indoor botanical garden. You also enjoy a delicious breakfast here from Teds, All Day Brunch.

Unwind in Hein's beautiful farmhouse, just outside the village of Chaam in Brabant, near Breda. At Sleeping at Hein you can enjoy a wonderful night's sleep in a guesthouse that has been designed and furnished with great care, using sustainable materials such as wood and concrete. The interior is a mix of old and new and offers optimal comfort. Here you can spend a special night in the green countryside, but you can also reach Breda city centre in a short drive.

The 65m2 guesthouse has an open-plan kitchen and living room, a large bedroom on the ground floor with a walkthrough to a bathroom with spacious walk-in shower and double sinks. From both the kitchen and the bedroom you have access to a private garden. Via a miller's staircase in the living room, you reach an extra bedroom, cosy under the sloping roof. In short, an ideal place to unwind and enjoy the Brabant countryside.
