History

Ellecom has always been a well-known holiday resort since the beginning of 1900. Several villas in this area were built as guest-houses where guests from all parts of the country came to enjoy the countryside. Today the remaining villas, as well as Villa Vredehoek, are now municipal monuments.

'Pension' Villa Vredehoek was built in 1898 and shows characteristic features of the for this period typical transitional architecture. Typical features of this kind of architecture are Neo-renaissance, Chaletstyle and Art Nouveau/Jugendstil.

Even as far back as 1923 an advertisement of the Pension Vredehoek was inserted in the municipal guide "To promote establishment in the municipality Rheden". At that time the owner was A.G Nijdeken and the house-number used to be number 3.

The renovation and the rebuilding of the villa

When the house was bought by the former owners it was in a very poor state. Very accurate and with an eye for authentic details, the house has been restored in its former glory. After restoring the living accommodation they soon started to furnish the guestrooms.

2007

Since 2007 we, Monika and Pieter-Maarten Mann, are the 4th owners of the house since 1898. It will not surprise you we have fallen in love with the house as much as the previous owners.

We are looking forward to welcoming you in B&B Villa Vredehoek.
