Amazing days in the cottage
We had some wonderful days in the cottage! It was clean and very snugly and offered us everything, we needed. Rob and Joyce are very friendly and helpful in every situation. It was nice to have some ”smalltalk“ with them. The environment is beautiful. It was not our last stay! We enjoyed our days in the cottage very much and are looking forward to our vacances there in the next year!

Ein entspannter und sehr erholsamer Urlaub
Wer Ruhe, Entspannung, endlose Sandstrände, beschauliche Dörfer und Orte sucht, ist auf der Insel Schouwen- Duiveland genau richtig. Die weiten und herrlichen Strände sind auch ein Paradies für Familien mit Kindern. Auch Fahrradfahrer fühlen sich auf den weitläufigen, sicheren Fahradwegen wohl. Unser Cottage befindet sich in Zonnemaire, mitten in ruhiger Natur mit einer herrlichen Terrasse, auf der wir allabendlich spektakuläre Sonnenuntergänge beobachten konnten. Im Cottage findet man alles, was man braucht. Es ist gemütlich, sauber und ursprünglich. Rob, der Gastgeber, ist sehr nett, immer behilflich und zuvorkommend. Gerne geben wir hier die Bestnoten!

Sehr ruhige idyllische Lage. Ideal für 2 Personen die sich sehr gut kennen. Schöner offener Wohn- und Essbereich. Spüle, 2 Kochplatten, Mikrowelle, Wasserkocher und Senseo Kaffemaschine. Geschirr für 2 Personen. Über eine sehr steile Treppe gelangt man ins Dachgeschoss.

Heerlijk verblijf
Een erg leuk huisje met alles erop en eraan. Wij hebben enorm genoten van de paar dagen vakantie in Duikhuisjes die we dit jaar hadden. We raden het huisje zeker aan bij onze duikvrienden. Zelf hebben we een bus bij ons maar je kunt je pakken buiten overdekt laten uitlekken. Binnen knus maar toch voldoende ruimte voor uitrusting. Vriendelijke eigenaren waar je terecht kunt met vragen. Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar.
