Hi, I'm Marlieke!
Together with my family, I live on a farm from 1651 in the green outskirts of IJsselstein.
Our B&B is wonderfully quiet, with panoramic views and yet close to nice towns and big cities.
In the yard, there are chickens, sheep and rabbits.
I am happy to help you with tips or questions.
Feel welcome!
