On a beautiful spot on the sea dyke in Moddergat we rent out an ancient fisherman's cottage ( national monument). The nature house is suitable for four persons. Downstairs: living room with wood stove, 2 authentic bedsteads what makes sleeping for 2 downstairs possible, modern kitchen fully equipped, bathroom with bath, shower and toilet. Upstairs: fixed (somewhat steep, supported on both sides) stairs to two bedrooms, each with a double bed. The nature house is equipped with central heating, wifi and TV. There is a sunny private garden facing south and a separate bicycle shed.

Nature and surroundings

The nature house is in an idyllic place, located directly at the foot of the sea dike, bordering the Wadden Sea. The surroundings are characterized by peace and space, the landscape is vast, open and green. Paesens-Moddergat is an authentic twin village with much fishing history, right on the World Heritage Site of the Wadden Sea. The area is quite on the rise in terms of tourism. Every year, more and more people come to the beautiful North of the Netherlands to enjoy the Wadden Sea, described as an exceptionally beautiful nature reserve, with adjacent the National Park Lauwersmeer, the eldorado for many bird lovers. Dokkum (one of the Eleven Cities) with all amenities is about 10 minutes drive.Just 4 km away is the village of Anjum for all your daily shopping. The boat to the islands of Schiermonnikoog and Ameland is nearby as well as Leeuwarden, capital of Friesland. Groningen is also worth a visit.

    A really nice and nostalgic little house
    Some things do need to be replaced, and the kitchen could use a good cleaning, including the cabinets.
    There are a lot of spiders in the house

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Cozy
    Unique because of the age of the house; cultural heritage.
    However, there is a musty smell in the house, and it is in need of maintenance.

    It felt like stepping back in time, which made staying at the cottage a truly special experience. It was clean, had everything you needed, comfortable beds, and a lovely, private garden.

    Awesome!

    Small, but nice. It is a listed building. Often wonderfully cool on hot days. You imagine yourself a little back in the old days.

    Wonderfully quiet, close to the Wadden coast. I could take a quick look on the dike if I wanted to experience the mudflats and the wind.
