Meet the fieldfare (Turdus pilaris) and the tree creeper and see with your own eyes how everything around you awakens, grows and blooms. A place where pouring rain is appreciated, doing nothing seems easier and grinding your own coffee gives a feeling of luxury.

Robust wooden poles, rough and polished concrete and inventive solutions for the kitchen and curtains complete your experience.

Kazemat Koningsweg is to be be found on Buitenplaats Koningsweg, a surprising “village” founded during the Second World War as a camouflaged German military base around Fliegerhorst Deelen airfield.

During the war, everything around Fliegerhorst Deelen on the Koningsweg was about camouflage. The occupiers disguised the military buildings as farming villages to avoid detection from the air.

The name was also chosen for this reason. A Kazemat is a small – partly concrete – bunker, a shelter dug in and hidden in nature.
Folly Kazemat Koningsweg was designed by JCR architects and is fully committed to this theme of camouflage, sustainability and nature inclusivity.

In this theme, eleven “follies” have been designed, literally translated a folly is a foolishness or crazy and unique is that these follies are intended for overnight stays.
