Around the house
The description mentions a horse mill, a bread oven, a sheepfold and an orchard. Look at how such features relate to the farmhouse. Ask what job a small building or installation had before you see it merely as part of a picturesque farmyard.
Clothing in the attic
The regional costume collection focuses on fabric, shape and decoration. A small detail can show you what to look out for during the explanation. Ask how the attic can be reached if stairs are difficult for you.
Collecting and storytelling
A cabinet of archaeological and geological objects and a room devoted to Johanna van Buren broaden the visit. You do not need to follow every subject for the same length of time. Choose something that matches your interests and ask how it relates to the region.
Before you go
The exact end of the season in late October varies between listings; confirm visits around that time.
