Casa L

The luxurious Casa L is the first house of a uniquely designed split-level villa from 2016, located on 5,500 m2 of private land. The second house of the villa is private and attached to Casa L. The rental prices are based on the fact that this house can be inhabited by one or two of the Dutch owners during your stay. Regardless of their presence or not: if you rent Casa L you will always have exclusive use of your swimming pool, the sun terraces around the pool, the hammock terrace, and the pétanque court. Because of the transverse position and difference in height of both houses, lots of privacy is guaranteed for everyone.

Casa L can comfortably accommodate 4 people (90m2). The living room is modern and bright with a complete, open-planned kitchen and a nicely decorated lounge area. The outside spaces offer both shadow and sun: the living room sliding doors bring you to your private east terrace with panoramic views and on the other side the large south-west facing patio is located. This is also the barbecue area and it’s fenced, so children can play safely. The spacious master bedroom has a comfortable king-size bed (180m) and sliding doors to the sunny east terrace. A second spacious bedroom has two comfortable single beds and a private washing facility. There is one luxuriously finished bathroom with a rain shower and hand shower.

Pool and leisure area: via your private east terrace you walk to your private backyard with the beautifully situated swimming pool behind the villa, purified with magnesium salt (good for skin and anti-allergenic!). Here are more breathtaking views of the hills and there is a beautiful sun terrace with a large outside dining table where you can eat and sit in the shade.

The first part of the pool is shallow and possible to close off with a line: ideal for small children! A jet stream ensures that you can swim the necessary ‘laps’. The pool can be heated (against costs) between the beginning of April and mid-October. Below the swimming pool are 2 more terraces in the forest, where you can relax or play pétanque. Here are also 2 hammocks and a swing for small children.
