One of the few houses in the outskirts of the Ouddorp village. It's recently build along a street with various other houses. A nice garden, two decorative sheds complete the view including trees and shrubs. A house more preffered than the modern types of architecture with many equally build houses in almost endless rows.
Is your home "worth a painting" and built to last for future generations? Sustainable architecture and living are more than just buzzwords, we should create a world we can be proud to pass on and stands the test of time

Vaux-le-Vicomte (Est.1658) - a baroque French château on a 33 hectares (100 acres) estate with formal gardens along a three-kilometer axis. Built between 1658 to 1661 as a symbol of power and influence and intended to reflect the grandeur of Nicolas Fouquet, Marquis de Belle Île, Viscount of Melun and Vaux, the superintendent of finances of Louis XIV.

This marked the beginning of the "Louis XIV style" combining architecture, interior design and landscape design. Their next following project was to build Versailles.

Tom Thumb stealing the Seven-league boots of the Ogre. Tom Thumb in the Efteling is based on one of the eight fairytales published by Charles Perrault "Le petit Poucet" in "Histoires ou contes du temps passé" in 1697. The scene, designed as "Klein Duimpje", is since 1998 in the Fairytale Forest. Tom Thumb is stealing the Seven-league boots of the sleeping ogre. To call Tom Thumb, you have to call his name in a hole of a wooden log.
Seven-league boots are an element in European folklore. The boots allow the person wearing them to take strides of seven leagues per step, resulting in great speed..

Oostvoorne - Landgoed Mildenburg - Mushrooms
Landgoed Mildenburg - originally the estate dates back to the sixteenth century. In the course of the 18th century, the Van Leyden van Leeuwen family built a country house as a country house and laid out the woods. The house has since been demolished and the garden has become a wilderness. But the estate is now a beautiful nature reserve and managed by the Zuid Hollands Landschap. There are marked walking routes over the old oak avenues, through a beech forest, over the dunes and along a Stinsenplant garden.

Vaux-le-Vicomte (Est.1658) - a baroque French château on a 33 hectares (100 acres) estate with formal gardens along a three-kilometer axis. Built between 1658 to 1661 as a symbol of power and influence and intended to reflect the grandeur of Nicolas Fouquet, Marquis de Belle Île, Viscount of Melun and Vaux, the superintendent of finances of Louis XIV.
The château was an influential work of architecture in mid-17th-century Europe. The architect Louis Le Vau, the landscape architect André le Nôtre, and the painter-decorator Charles Le Brun worked together on this large-scale project. This marked the beginning of the "Louis XIV style" combining architecture, interior design and landscape design. Their next following project was to build Versailles.

Museum De Duinhuisjes - an open air museum in Rockanje with characteristic small farms in the style of building around the year 1900 in Westelijk Voorne.
In that period the people in Rockanje mainly lived from small-scale horticulture, fishing and hunting. The very first dune houses were built with what was available from nature and what was found at beachcombing.
In the open-air museum you will find three dune houses that come elsewhere from Rockanje and which have been rebuilt as original as possible in the old state on this location. The first house at the entrance from 1910, which already stood here, is a national monument. Each house has been decorated in a different way, creating a nice overview of the different periods around the turn of the last century (1900 - 1930). There are also a number of original outbuildings and stables.

The walkthrough attraction consists of a dimly lit cavern with the large dragon sleeping silently. Occasionally it will 'wake up', puffing smoke and growling. The building also contains La Galerie de la Belle au Bois Dormant, a gallery of displays which illustrate the story of Sleeping Beauty in tapestries, stained glass windows and figures. La Boutique du Château, a shop selling Christmas ornaments year-round, and Merlin l'Enchanteur, a shop specialising in handmade glass figures, are located on ground floor.
