The Bed & Breakfast
"'t Huys Grol" is an old mansion. It is situated at the inner border of the coastal
dunes of the island of Schouwen in the South-west part of Holland (province
of Zeeland). The former estate Grol is situated very close to the centre of the
lively village of Renesse. The old mansion Grol was originally founded in 1599.
It was rebuilt several times. Its present appearance dates back to 1870. The mansion is
beautifully restored as a national trust monument in the past decade.
A lovely
English garden of 3000 mē surrounds the house. Cosy seats invite you for a place in the sun or in the shadow of
the trees. There is a large pond with a number of indigenous fish species, ducks
and waterfowl. A big fountain which is illuminated at night contributes to the calm and
relaxed atmosphere. Part of the garden dates back to medieval times and hosts plant
species characteristic for castles and manor houses like the abundant Blue bells. The Isle
of Schouwen is the sunniest part of the Netherlands which will allow you often in
summertime to have your breakfast served in the garden. A separate part of the garden
supplies you with free parking facilities.
The guest-rooms are spacious and are equipped with authentic
furniture. The luxury rooms are equipped with a double bed. The standard
room has two single beds. Each guestroom has
cable-television, a free safe and free facilities for making coffee and tea and
a refrigerator. Each guestroom has its own luxury bathroom with shower
and toilet.
In addition, two bathrooms have a whirlpool (the "Panorama Room" and the
"Garden Room". In your bathroom you will find a
hair-dryer and a heated towel-radiator to enhance your comfort. Breakfast is served as
room-service or will be served in the garden or veranda on your request.
