This nature house is ideal for beach lovers, hikers, runners, horseback riders, mountain bikers, and so on. As early as the seventeenth century, the mayor of Amsterdam had recognized it as the perfect spot for his country retreat.  In 1948, a new house was built, which was completely renovated in 2017. The nature house features a spacious kitchen-living room with a five-burner induction stove, dishwasher, boiling water dispenser, washing machine, dryer, and more. Bathroom with toilet and shower on the ground floor. Wheelchair accessible. A living room and a small TV room, which can also be used as an extra double sleeping area on the ground floor. The ground floor is wheelchair-friendly, with as few thresholds as possible. With Sonos speakers, you can choose your own music. On the First floor, there is a spacious bathroom with a large walk-in shower and two double bedrooms with double beds (160x200 and 180x210), one of which has its own bathroom (bathtub). On the second floor, there are two more double bedrooms (4x 90x200 cm).

Nature and surroundings

This eight-person nature house is located outside the town center, nestled between the three Egmonds. It’s close to the coast, with bulb fields on one side and the protected dune area of Egmond on the other. The house features contemporary decor and a spacious garden. The chickens and rooster roam around the house, providing fresh eggs. The miniature sheep and deer graze peacefully in the meadow. There are also two Fjord horses near the house. For experienced riders, it is possible to arrange to use them. Just a few minutes away from the house are two riding stables where, with a riding certificate, horses can be rented or group rides can be arranged.

    We spent a fantastic long weekend at Cottage Pastime ! The house, the garden and the surroundings are a true idyll....
    Communication with the landlord was smooth and easy. The house was clean, comfortable and fully equipped. Good beds.In short, it is definitely in our favorites list.

    Spacious, pleasant layout of house and garden with multiple places to sit or retreat, animal-friendly and functional furnishings

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    House is beautifully situated against the dunes and the sea is within walking distance. A pity that on certain days many planes from Schiphol fly over, but not experienced as a nuisance.
