Life on the street
Daily errands require a drive: the nearest supermarket, Jumbo, is about three kilometres away, and the Coop is just under four kilometres.

The area is car-dependent, but the tranquillity and space more than compensate. For a broader view of the surroundings, check the municipality of Altena.
