For a weekend that mixes a city visit with time in nature, six of the nine Holiday Homes Maridu accommodations are in the Netherlands. Five sit at Resort De Hooge Veluwe (Koningsweg 14, Arnhem/Schaarsbergen), right beside the Veluwe nature area and close to Arnhem: Ayla (sleeps 4), Family L-Cube (sleeps 6), Tiny Cube (sleeps 4), Forest Cube (sleeps 4) and Wellness (sleeps 2). The sixth, Family Wellness (sleeps 5), is in Hattemerbroek near Zwolle, pairing a smaller-city base with green surroundings. The three remaining homes (Celine, Elizabeth and Marianne) are in the Czech Republic and suit a mountain trip rather than a Dutch city-and-nature weekend. The right choice comes down to your group size and the features you want.
