The house is just a few minute's walk from the train station (Amsterdam and other towns a short ride away), a grocery store, and a few lovely restaurants. It's a 15 minute walk (or 4 minute bike ride) from downtown Heemstede which has whatever other shops or restaurants you might need. The nearby bike lanes are an easy 15 minute ride easy ride to Haarlem. A bus takes you directly to the beach and cute town in Zandvoort. In short, this house is just superbly located for a stay in The Netherlands.
The house is large, the beds are comfortable and the hot tub is a plus. There are very steep "Dutch stairs" with no real railings, but my older husband and I just went very, very slowly. :) Arianne/owner is very responsive and very nice. The only beware is that this is very much a lived-in house by the owner and her family. I've stayed in both kinds of VRBO's -- those that are truly owned by families and those that are just set up as rental-only. This one is the former.
