Surrounding

Bed & Breakfast Hoeve Nijssen is located in the country area between Asten and Lierop.

Asten
Asten is surrounded by green. In the neighborhood you find the nature reserves “Nationaal Park De Groote Peel” and the “Strabrechtse Heide”. In these reserves you can cycle and walk nicely.

Asten also has several museums and sights. Everybody knows Asten because of the Koninklijke Eijsbouts’s bell foundry. Logically you find here the Carillon museum. For the young and the old it is also worthwhile to pay a visit to the Nature Historical Museum De Peel and the Observatory.

De Peel
Formerly the Peel extended over the Brabant’s villages Zeeland and Mill in the north up to the southern villages Nederweert and Heythuysen in Limburg. These days the Asten’s Peel and the Ospeler’s Peel are leftover. This national park “De Groote Peel” is located at the south border of the municipality in the hinterland of Asten-Heusden. A visit to the visitors centre Mijl op Zeven is a good start to get acquainted with this beautiful area. From Bed & Breakfast Hoeve Nijssen it takes about one hour cycling to get to this visitors centre.

Strabrechtse Heide
You can find the Strabrechtse Heide behind the village Lierop, which takes half an hour cycling from Bed & Breakfast Hoeve Nijssen. It is a beautiful nature reserve of 1500 hectare of heather. You will enjoy the surroundings and perhaps you might come across the herd of 300 Kempen’s Heather sheep along the way.

Restaurants
There are plenty of restaurants, cafes, pancake restaurants etc. After all you are situated in a very hospitable part of The Netherlands. With much pleasure we like to show you the way.
