Holiday homes in Groningen

Why Groningen is so special

Groningen is the north’s student city, and you can feel it everywhere. The city buzzes with energy: terraces are lively, the calendar is packed with festivals, and the city centre rarely goes quiet in the evenings. At the same time, Groningen has a rich history. The Martinitoren has towered over the Grote Markt since the 15th century and offers beautiful views across the city. At the Groninger Museum, you’ll discover art and design in a building that is a work of art in its own right. And if you simply want to wander, you’ll find plenty of cosy courtyards, canals and shopping streets.

What makes Groningen even more appealing is its location. It’s easy to combine city life with nature, whether you’re heading to Nationaal Park Lauwersmeer, cycling through wide-open countryside, or taking a boat trip to Schiermonnikoog. From your holiday home in Groningen, you can enjoy the best of both worlds.

Holiday homes in and around Groningen

The range of holiday homes in Groningen is wonderfully varied. Looking for a compact city apartment, a bungalow surrounded by greenery, or a luxury home with extra comfort? It’s all possible. There are holiday homes with a sauna for anyone who wants to unwind after a day outdoors. For larger families and groups of friends, there are spacious holiday homes for 18 people, often with a generous living area, multiple bathrooms and a large garden to enjoy together.

Travelling with children? You’ll find plenty of family-friendly holiday homes, with safe play areas, high chairs and often a garden where little ones can burn off energy. And of course, your dog can come too: there are lots of pet-friendly holiday cottages, so your four-legged friend can join you in Groningen.

Nature right on your doorstep

What makes Groningen special is that nature is always close by. You can leave the city behind and be out in the open landscape in no time. A day trip to Nationaal Park Lauwersmeer or a crossing to Schiermonnikoog gives you that sense of space and freedom that the north of the Netherlands is known for. The small mound villages around the city are also well worth a visit, with winding dikes, old churches and far-reaching views.

For every type of traveller

Groningen suits all kinds of travellers. Couples often choose a cosy apartment in the city centre, families feel at home in a house with a garden where children have space to play, and groups of friends like to book a larger farmhouse just outside the city to cook together and explore the area. With such a varied choice, there’s always a holiday home to match your wishes.
