Hot Spring Spa-arrangement

Behind the farmhouse is the renovated haybarn. An experience to ‘bubble’ outdoors in both summer and winter. The walled haybarn offers both shelter and privacy. Open the doors and you look onto the orchard. Re-energise with a glass of bubbly. Book a private hour for two during your stay, including the use of two softly laundered bathrobes.

Savour a good drink

In the lounge you will find an excellent collection of wines, champagne or a gin and tonic. The collection has been put together by Luuc van Boort, the distinguished wine merchant whose premises are in Zaltbommel. During your stay in the B&B help yourself to the bottle of your choice. All Willem asks, is that you make a note of your choice and he will charge it to your room at the end of your stay.

Spoil yourself with a cheese and meat platter

If you don’t fancy going out after your arrival, then your host would be only too pleased to provide a platter with delicious cheese,  tapas and charcuterie accompanied by a good glass of wine- there is no need to go out. 

Cycle routes

De Heeren van Tuil is located between cycle route junctions 76 and 79. The ideal spot to start an enchanting ride through ‘River country’ and the Betuwe. It is an absolute must to cycle through the water meadows of Waardenburg. En route you will see beautiful spots such as Buren or the castles at Neerijnen and Waardenburg.and you will pass several ferries to cross the river. If you use an electric bike you can charge it at De Heeren van Tuil’s own charging point.

Walking: The Maarten van Rossum Trail

The Maarten van Rossum Trail (LAW4) is a long distance (385 kilometres) trail. It runs from ‘s-Hertogenbosch to Steenwijk. The route is named after Maarten van Rossum, a 16th Century military officer in the service of the Duke of Guelders, which is the name of the area through which the trail runs. (source: wikipedia).

B&B De Heeren van Tuil is  situated in the Tielerwaarden, the water meadows of  the Betuwe, within walking distance of the Waardenburg trail stage. By prior arrangement, your host, for a small fee, would be only too happy to take you to either the starting or finishing point of the trail.

If you come from the direction of Zaltbommel, then you take a left turn after crossing the Martinus Nijhoff bridge and you will arrive at the B&B via the Waalbandijk within a few minutes. At the B&B recharge in your comfortable bed made with the world’s finest linen. The next morning, after a sumptuous breakfast, you  can walk within minutes to the trail stage in Waardenburg. 

Going out

On the other side of the river Waal is the fortified town of Zaltbommel with its many good restaurants and bars. The Heeren van Tuil is happy to make some suggestions depending on your culinary wishes. If you do not want to go by car, you can borrow bikes, allowing you to enjoy yourselves without the worry of having to drive.
