It is a nice property but in the middle of nowhere. There are buses but a renting a car would make things a lot easier. It's about a 40 min. drive to Amsterdam (city or airport) with no traffic. Utrecht is much closer.

Is there anything to do in the area? I'll be flying into AMS. Normally, I like to stay in AMS City Centre (museums/coffeshops, etc) - but given the high cost of rooms in the city - was thinking of heading out to the country (and I have a friend in Utrect).

What's there to do in the area (walking around mostly?)?

Thanks in advance!
