With various woods (Wouwse Plantage, Rucphense Heide, Mastbosch), polders en nature conservation areas (Biesbosch en Kalmthoutse Heide), Brabant boasts a splendid countryside. In the midst of this scenic landscape lies an alternating pattern of picturesque villages and clearly–arranged towns. Towns with a Burgundian background and characteristic identity and century-old fortified towns. It is a pleasure living and working here and passing one’s leisure hours in this part of the Netherlands, whether you enjoy woods, the heath or water. Not forgetting the close proximity of Antwerp, Rotterdam, the various amusement parks and the beaches in Zeeland. An additional advantage is that house prices in West Brabant are extremely reasonable. Limburg is both a Dutch province and a European region with a highly distinct character and a considerable cultural diversity. The province’s cultural heritage abounds with local marksmanship festivals and numerous folkloric events. Many churches in Limburg are of Romanesque or Gothic origin, often with an astounding array of treasures such as sculpture, vestments and other religious objects. The many hundreds of road-side crosses and chapels are typical features of Limburg's countryside. The province also has a wealth of museums. Limburg is a great place to feel at home. An increasing number of expatriates are getting the message and settling into the good life in Limburg. Families are well catered for in Limburg; quality time is available in a quality setting, as are restaurants, sports, concerts, theatres and schools. Zeeland has a high standard of living, interesting property prices compared to other regions in the Netherlands, stunning beaches, forests and vast “ polder” landscapes, tranquility, water sport opportunities, and plenty of cultural and recreational events, top of the bill restaurants and high level of educational facilities. |
