Ferox XL (6 persons)

Ferox XL is a six-person holiday home on Landgoed de Scheleberg, a wooded estate in the heart of Lunteren on the Veluwe. The estate sits among the forests of Gelderland, and cycling routes and walking paths through the surrounding woodland start right on the doorstep. The grounds include a heated outdoor swimming pool and a children's pool, both open seasonally, as well as a restaurant and bar, a sun lawn, and a large playground. For sport, there is a tennis court, a football pitch, a volleyball court, a petanque lane, and table tennis. Families travelling with dogs will appreciate the on-site dog-washing station, and there is also a bike-washing facility, a laundrette, a reception, parking, EV charging points, and free Wi-Fi throughout the estate.

Lunteren itself sits roughly in the centre of the Netherlands, so day trips in several directions are straightforward. The Veluwe is one of the country's largest nature areas, and the estate's position means you are well placed to head into the forests and heathlands without a long drive. The elegant entrance lane and tree-lined setting give the estate a calm, unhurried character that carries through to the accommodation itself.

This home suits a group of six looking for a base in the Veluwe with plenty of on-site amenities to keep everyone occupied, from young children who will enjoy the pool and playground to adults who want to cycle or walk through the Gelderland forests.
