This nature house is built in the Swedish style. The house features a cozy kitchen-dining-living area, equipped with a kitchenette with electric stovetops. A dining table with chairs and a comfortable sofa round out the space. There are also two bedrooms and a bathroom. The entryway features a coat closet and two built-in closets. With the patio doors open, you’ll enjoy a beautiful view of the garden. Behind the cottage, there’s an additional private spot where you can relax in the sun or have a barbecue. The cottage is equipped with central heating, Wi-Fi, and a TV. Pets are not allowed, and smoking is not permitted inside the house. In the farm shop, the hosts offer homemade farm products and other organic local products. You can also go boating right from the property—use of a fishing boat is included in the total price! Please note: we advise against traveling with children under 8 years of age or without a swimming certificate, as the property is located directly on the waterway (high embankment)!
Nature and surroundings
If you enjoy hiking, biking, or spending time by or on the water, you’ve come to the right place. The water invites you to enjoy swimming, canoeing, and fishing. The child-friendly Makkum beach is within walking distance, and from the IJsselmeer you can sail out onto the Frisian inland lakes. Nearby you’ll find beautiful nature reserves, and in the fall you can watch thousands of wild geese flying noisily over to the nearby meadows, where they spend the winter. For lovers of culture, history, and architecture, this area is also a delight. Along the Elfstedenroute, beautiful towns such as Harlingen, Hindeloopen, Sloten, and Workum—with their museums and galleries—invite you to enjoy some shopping or have a cup of coffee. Bolsward, Sneek, and Leeuwarden are also definitely worth a visit.

The garden was in winter mode but is undoubtedly beautiful in summer. This is a good reason to come back again. Thank you for your hospitality, Douwe and Iris.
De tuin was in winterstand maar is in de zomer ongetwijfeld prachtig. Dat is een goede reden om nog eens terug te komen. Dank voor jullie gastvrijheid, Douwe en Iris.
Lovely place, even in winter. The garden house is cozy and warm and has a fine kitchen that is well equipped. You walk straight from the garden house to Makkum, but also into nature. Leeuwarden is close by - go to the Ceramics Museum! We celebrated an unforgettable New Year's Eve together with Douwe and Iris and the tenants of their other house in the yard. And enjoyed Douwe's birding knowledge.
Heerlijke plek, zelfs in de winter. Het tuinhuis is knus en warm en heeft een fijne keuken die goed uitgerust is. Je loopt vanuit het tuinhuis zo naar Makkum, maar ook de natuur in. Leeuwarden is dichtbij - ga naar het Keramiekmuseum! We hebben een onvergetelijk oud en nieuw gevierd samen met Douwe en Iris en de huurders van hun andere huis op het erf. En genoten van de vogelkennnis van Douwe.
