Oud Groevenbeek, Estate and national monument complex in Ermelo, Netherlands.
Oud Groevenbeek is an Art Nouveau estate in Ermelo built around a villa from 1908 that serves as the main structure. The property includes several historic auxiliary buildings such as an old ice cellar, greenhouses, a coach house, and a wash house, all part of a self-sufficient rural complex.
The property began as a working farm and gradually grew into a large self-sufficient rural complex over the centuries. The Art Nouveau villa was built in the early 1900s, reflecting the spread of modern architecture into the countryside.
The name "Oud Groevenbeek" refers to the old settlement that once stood here, connecting visitors to the area's heritage. The rooms inside are named after traditional local professions, offering a glimpse into how people worked the land centuries ago.
The estate can be rented for accommodations, with visitors choosing between individual suites or booking the entire main villa. It is helpful to contact ahead to understand the available options, room layouts, and what amenities are included for your specific visit.
Within a greenhouse on the grounds grow grapevines that have been rooted here for around 90 years and still produce fruit for the estate's own wine. The wine is bottled under the name Chateau Oud Groevenbeek, blending the property's long history with the experience of visitors today.
