Very good

The cottage is in a lovely sunny position, very quiet and the beds are comfortable. It’s not a spacious cottage for 6 adults - the sitting room, main entrance, kitchen and dining area are all the same room; one sofa with 4 seats; very little ‘kitchen’ space but adequate hob and oven. The owner’s family were warm, friendly and helpful. I would stay again if holidaying in Holland, but not with 6 of us, really it suits 4.

Erstmal wurden wir getäuscht, da vom Haus aus KEIN Seeblick! (Im Inserat als solcher beschrieben).TV defekt, trotz Hinweis an Vermieter wurde Mangel nicht behoben. Keine Kleiderschränke, nur eine Kommode.Kücheneinrichtung mangelhaft. Wie in dieser kleinen Wohnung 6 Personen zurecht kommen sollen, ist uns schleierhaft. Keine Leselampen am Bett, sehr ärgerlich.Insgesamt deutlich überteuertes Objekt mit schlechtem Preis—Leistungs—Verhältnis.Endreinigung mit 150 bei 2 Personen, die nur das Erdgeschoss bewohnten, viel zu hoch.Insgesamt fordern wir eine Rückerstattung von Euro 300,-,da die Beschreibung irreführend war und die Gesamtaus— stattung NICHT dem geforderten Preis entsprach.Ich behalte mir eine Beurteilung im Internet vor, insofern bitte ich um eine einvernehmliche Lösung.Dr. Hermann SauerAm Gänsrasen 19D—36110 Schlitz

I made this a home for you without compromising comfort.
Why they chose this property
This is a very unique property and has a long history. It was build in 1900 and survived the flood of 1916 when de Dyke broke and Andijk flooded. Its style is typical West Friesian with the ornaments and colors you find all through the region. It has a big flower garden to enjoy. Even though the house itself is from the turn of the last century, the cottage is newly remodeled in 2018.
What makes this property unique
We live in a bird reserve. The proximity to the lake, home to migrating birds, ducks and geese will give you the feeling you live in the middle of nature. From the doorstep you are right at the IJsselmeer for recreation.
