Surroundings

The Betuwe region is bordered by the rivers Waal, Lek and Nederrijn. The recreational area of De Meent is great for swimming and fishing, and you can go canoeing on the river Linge. Near Beusichem, the river Lek also functions as the border between the provinces of Gelderland and Utrecht. Departing in front of Restaurant 't VeerHuys is a ferry that crosses the river Lek to Wijk bij Duurstede. Dorestad - as Wijk bij Duurstede used be called - was an important European trading point during the Middle Ages. Many archaeological discoveries have been made in and around Wijk bij Duurstede, which can now be viewed at Museum Dorestad. The small city of Culemborg with its beautiful historic city centre and dozens of listed buildings lies just five kilometres away from Beusichem.

Food and Drink

Restaurant 't VeerHuys is established below the guesthouse. It is a cosy pancake restaurant where meat and fish dishes also grace the menu. The restaurant has a beautiful terrace and a sun lounge with a view of the river Lek, while a warm, crackling fire in the hearth provides a cosy touch in the winter. The restaurant is open daily from 11:00. It is also possible to enjoy Afternoon Tea here.
