Welcome to Cabauw

Cabauw, located in the Dutch province of Utrecht within the Lopikerwaard between Schoonhoven and Lopik, presents a characteristic polder landscape shaped by peat meadows, long drainage ditches and the open horizon of the river Lek’s floodplain. A holiday in Cabauw often begins near the Cabauwse Wetering, where straight waterlines, grassy banks and distant church towers define the calm rhythm of the countryside. A B&B in Cabauw fits naturally into this agricultural environment and provides access to cycling routes toward Willige Langerak, Lopikerkapel and the river dike along the Lek. The N210 forms a clear infrastructure line, while narrow polder roads show how farms historically followed the elongated peat ridges. Choosing a villa in Cabauw offers comfort for exploring panoramic viewpoints across wet grasslands, willow-lined footpaths and minor routes passing pumping stations and old sluices. A holiday home in Cabauw allows travellers to follow peaceful dike trails, observe meadow birds near shallow canals and approach canoe paths that weave through the Lopikerwaard’s historic water network. Recreation centres on cycling, walking, paddling and experiencing how water, farmland and big skies interact. Cabauw ultimately shows how openness can feel deeply grounding.
