Everything was neatly cared for and clean. The kitchen is a bit dated but perfectly functional and fits in with the concept. The wellness was wonderful and we enjoyed it very much. The environment is very quiet and you can walk to the IJsselmeer in 10 minutes. The road where the farm is located is also quiet and you hardly hear this inside.
We all really liked the beautiful old farmhouse. Play facilities and books for the children were available and were used with joy. The landlady is very friendly. The apartment is close to many beautiful Frisian towns and only a few minutes from the IJsselmeer. Really nice.
The property is housed in a historic building and has a certain charm. Too bad there was only one toilet with no sink. That's not much for up to six people. In hot weather you couldn't sit outside during the day because there was no sun protection.
Perfect and very pleasant stay. Very friendly welcome with even a little word in French. The Gite totally corresponds to the announcement, it would be fantastic with 3 small additional accessories: A microwave, a freezer / freezer & a parasol for the terrace
Very nice area for walking and cycling, with beautiful nature and nice towns / villages. Lots of space in the house, but a pity that a number of things did not work properly or were really worn out. For example, we were not able to enjoy the wellness facilities in the bathroom because we had no hot water for 2 days.
The house is really great and something very special. It looks like a lock. It is well equipped with a real oven and a good coffee maker. The only thing missing is a freezer. The washer and dryer are new. The bathroom great. We'd love to come back
