Between Leeuwarden and Dokkum, near the Wadden area, on a mound stand two 17th century mound houses with in each house two separate lodgings. In this nature house "the Telle" the atmosphere from past centuries is still tangible. Here you will find the wooden cockerel beams, estriken tiled floor (with floor heating) and a bed box from the 18th century. On the ground floor is the living room, kitchen and bathroom. In the living room with TV, there is a double sofa bed and a box bed. The kitchen is equipped with an electric stove, refrigerator, microwave, oven, coffee maker and kettle. A small hallway leads to the bathroom. The bathroom has a toilet, shower and a sink. Upstairs is a double bedroom with two single beds. If necessary, a camp bed and/or an air mattress can be added. This cottage is pet-free. Relax completely in the vast Frisian countryside! And that also applies to the cottages with ID numbers: 25150, 24607 and 25534.
Nature and surroundings
Walking and cycling enthusiasts beware! There are plenty of walking and cycling routes available in the area. For example, follow a route along the Wadden Sea or through the Frisian meadows. Within cycling distance of the cottage you will find the Frisian cities of Dokkum and Leeuwarden. A visit to these cities is definitely worthwhile. In addition, a trip to the Wadden Islands of Ameland and Schiermonnikoog is highly recommended. Bicycles (also electric) can be rented and delivered to the vacation home.

They should also post a photo of the kitchen, bathroom, and shower facilities on the nature house website, along with the dimensions of the box bed, to avoid disappointment.
Laten ze op de Site van Natuurhuisje ook een foto zetten van de keuken/WC/douche accomodatie en de maten van de bedstee, om teleurstelling te voorkomen.
Beautifully located, friendly owners.
Unfortunately, we weren’t told just HOW small the living space was in terms of the kitchen, bathroom, and shower. There was no kitchen or pantry, and no place to put things down or store them.
The sink with a small stove in the space designated for one box bed was far too cramped.
The refrigerator was in an alcove, making it difficult to get into the bathroom, where the sink and shower were positioned right next to each other.
I also wish I’d known the dimensions of the sleeping box. It was too short; I couldn’t stretch my legs at night.
It was manageable but very uncomfortable. These issues weren’t shown in the photos on the website or mentioned in the description; otherwise, we wouldn’t have chosen this place.
The service was very nice, though. We didn’t have to bring our own bedding, and we were allowed to check out a little later. We didn’t have to pay for a broken glass.
They were sweet and kind people, but given the cramped space, we would have chosen a different cottage.Prachtig gelegen, aardige eigenaars.
Helaas was ons niet gecommuniceerd HOE klein de behuizing was aangaande (bij)keuken, toilet en douche. Er was geen keuken of bijkeuken en geen plaats om iets neer te leggen of op te bergen.
De gootsteenbak met kookstelletje in de ruimte van 1 bedstee was veel te krap.
De koelkast stond in een nis waardoor je moeilijk in de WC kon komen met wasbak en douche stijf naast elkaar gesitueerd.
De maten van de slaap-bedstee hadhad ik ook willen weten. Die was te kort, ik kon 's nachts mijn benen niet strekken.
Het was te doen maar heel oncomfortabel. Deze situaties stonden niet op de foto's van de Site en waren niet vermeld, anders hadden we hier niet voor gekozen.
De service was wel heel fijn. We hoefden geen eigen beddegoed mee te nemen en mochten ook iets later vertrekken. Een gebroken glas hoefden we niet te vergoeden.
Het waren lieve en aardige mensen maar gezien de krappe ruimte, zouden we voor een ander huisje gekozen hebben.This text is automatically translated. -

See above.
Zie hierboven.
A beautifully renovated old cottage dating back to 1628. Situated on a small mound: Jannum. The view was amazing, and we had plenty of outdoor space. There was even a shed for the bikes, and everything was neat and clean. The house is steeped in history; the kitchenette was located in the old box bed and worked perfectly. The owners were lovely, and there was a bottle of wine waiting on the table upon arrival. The beds are comfortable, and the large attic makes for a cozy place to sleep. Downstairs there’s another box bed for a child (or two). On the mound there are three cottages, the beautiful church that’s always open, and a farm with a B&B. The surroundings are wonderfully peaceful; Dokkum is 5 km away and very charming. The Wadden Sea coast is 10 km away. That’s what we enjoyed most—walking along the dykes, biking to Moddergat, etc. Plenty to do, lovely spot. We’d love to come back.
Een geweldig mooi opgeknapt, oud huisje uit 1628. Liggend op een kleine terp: Jannum. Het uitzicht was geweldig en we hadden veel buitenruimte. Zelfs een schuur voor de fietsen, alles was netjes en schoon. Het huis ademt geschiedenis, het keukentje bevond zich in de oude bedstede en werkte prima. Leuke eigenaren en bij aankomst een flesje wijn op tafel. De bedden zijn goed, het slaapt fijn op de grote zolder. Beneden is nog een bedstee voor evt. een kind( of 2). Op de terp staan 3 huisjes, de prachtige kerk die altijd open is en een boerderij met b en b. De omgeving is heerlijk rustig, Dokkum op 5 km, heel gezellig. De waddenkust is op 10 km. Daar hebben we het meest van genoten, butendyks wandelen, fietsen naar Moddergat enz. Genoeg te doen, fijne plek. Komen graag nog eens.
