Cycling hotel in the Achterhoek

Bring your own bike and ride straight from the door into the Achterhoek. Along the Berkel, up to the Needse Berg or through the patchwork landscape towards Winterswijk. In the evening your bike is kept dry, your e-bike charges and you dine in the old factory.

Where are you cycling to today?

Scroll, and cycle along the Berkel to Neede, Haaksbergen, Groenlo and Winterswijk.

From the door along the Berkel

The hotel is on the Haaksbergseweg, about 400 metres from the centre of Eibergen. The Berkel flows right past Eibergen. This river is about 110 kilometres long, rises in Germany and joins the IJssel at Zutphen. In the past, flat-bottomed barges, the berkelzompen, carried goods along it. Some 700 metres from the hotel stands the Mallumse Molen, a watermill on an old arm of the Berkel. A mill on this spot is mentioned as early as 1424. A lovely first outing before you head further afield.

A route to start with

On fietsnetwerk.nl you will find the junction route ‘Eibergen van boven naar beneden’. It is about 32 kilometres long, has 18 junctions and runs via Eibergen, Neede and Haarlo. Along the way you can combine it with a trip on the Berkelzomp; volunteers sail replica zomp boats through the Berkel landscape. Sailing times vary, so please check them in advance. At reception we are happy to give you tips for other routes.

How far it is by bike

Neede is about 6 kilometres away: some 20 minutes by bike. On the Needse Berg there is a 16-metre lookout tower. Groenlo is about 9 kilometres by bike, roughly half an hour. Haaksbergen is 9 to 10 kilometres away. Between Eibergen and Haaksbergen lies the Het Lankheet estate along the Buurserbeek, with its own cycling and walking routes. At about 19 kilometres, Winterswijk makes a day trip of around an hour each way; around Winterswijk lies the patchwork landscape of the Winterswijk National Landscape. You can read more about these places on staying near Winterswijk and our hotel near Neede.

What we arrange for cyclists

At night your bike is kept in safe, dry bike storage. There is a charging point for e-bikes. On request we will prepare a packed lunch for the road; please let reception know in good time. We do not rent out bikes, so please bring your own bike or e-bike. Coming by car with the bikes on the back? Parking is free on our own grounds.

Out early, back at leisure

On weekdays the breakfast buffet is ready from 7:00, at weekends from 8:00, so you can be on your bike in good time. If you are back by midday, the restaurant is open for lunch from 12:00 to 16:00. In the evening you dine in the old factory from 17:00 to 21:00 and then simply head upstairs to your room. Read more about breakfast on breakfast in Eibergen.

A cycling package?

We do not have a separate cycling package. What works well: book the Dine & Stay package with dinner, an overnight stay and breakfast, and bring your own bike. Bike storage, a charging point and route tips are all part of your stay. If you would rather have just a room, take a look at the rooms
