You're standing at Huis te Glimmen, a stately country house in the village of Glimmen, just south of the city of Groningen. Take a look at the driveway. It's almost nine hundred metres long. Around the house lie meadows lined with old oak trees, with a few old farmhouses scattered across the estate.
