Also in Wallpaper*.

Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Footpaths lead through the creative enclave of Buitenplaats Koningsweg directly into the forests and heathlands of Hoge Veluwe National Park.
The rooms
Sliding glass opens the lower living level onto a canopy terrace, while stairs lead past hidden cupboards to an attic bedroom.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.

Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.

A place apart: the property is the destination.
