The Fruit Barn, home & away

The Fruit barn is located in the hamlet Schandelo and is equipped with everything imaginable in a nostalgic atmosphere without compromising the current wishes. A special address where you - yes indeed - spend your time in an old fruit barn. The Fruit barn is located in Schandelo (near Venlo). The former fruit barn is detached little house. You stay in a comfortable and charming environment, immersed in nature, equipped with all comforts. The fruit barn has its own kitchen, toilet and shower, an intimate sleeping vide or bed on the ground floor for disabled people. For the sleep vide you climb up with the original staircase from the fruit barn. If you want, you can get your eggs yourself, but watch out for Karel, our rooster. You can use also the surrounding garden with a view on the arable land. We care for your privacy, but if you need us, we will be close. In winter, the snowy Witte Berg (a little mountain) offers a great opportunity for sledding. And ice skating on the Zwart Water (a lake in the vicinity of The Fruitbarn) is an experience in itself. While in the summer it is wonderful to be at the waterfronts of the several lakes or on the banks of the Maas (a nearby river). A stroll (is you wish under guidance) is also possible. 10 Minutes away you will find National Park the Maasduinen. In total, we are talking about more than 5000 hectares of 'Limburgs schoën'. Venlo and Arcen are only 3 km away and are therefore easily accessible by bike or car via a beautiful route. If you are by car: A. Take the exit 'Velden' on the A67. B. If you are coming from Eindhoven, turn right at the end of the exit at the traffic lights. Turn left at the next traffic lights. B. If you are coming from Germany, turn left at the bottom of the exit then turn left again at the second traffic lights. C. After about 500 meters you turn left (street Schandeloselaan). And you cross the viaduct of the A67. You enter the Zwart Water Nature Reserve. D. From that point on you drive another 3.5 km. You are already at Schandelo.
