Welcome! Our nature house, was built in 1913 of recycled Frisian tiles (stones) from the previous farm that stood here. It served as a pig and horse barn for about 80 years. When we bought the farm in 1996, the old stable was about to collapse. Cees did see a project in it. Only 10 years later the restoration was started. This was mainly because we had taken in a refugee. His name is Abraham and he lived in a tiny caravan behind our farm. Abraham began repairing the roof. The rest of the cottage was built with the help of friends and materials left over from the farmhouse remodel. It is furnished with gotten and 2 the life stuff. Outside are a Barrel sauna, Jacuzzi, cold water plunge pool and outdoor shower. The bed is made and there are bath and kitchen linens and 2 bathrobes. You have plenty of space and privacy. Recharging spot par excellence! And created with love.
Nature and surroundings
Our nature house is located near Winsum (municipality the Waadhoeke)in Friesland. This part of Friesland is called the Greidhoeke with endless views of green fields and ever-changing skies. Of long dikes, proud people, slightly stubborn but straightforward. With our heads in the clouds but our feet in the clay. In Friesland it is very central because you are within 20 minutes by car in Sneek, Bolsward, Leeuwarden, Harlingen or Franeker. There are cycling-walking and sailing routes. In the village is a large supermarket (Coop) with delivery service. Highly recommended: sit in the Jacuzzi in the middle of the night and enjoy the stars (no light pollution). Within walking and cycling distance there are several catering establishments. Furthermore, it is possible to follow a painting workshop in our art gallery-studio. What is also very interesting, visit the Eise Eisinga Planetarium in Franeker and all the beautiful 11 cities or rent a boat. In short, come recharge and discover Friesland.

Geartsje December 27, 2025 General rating:Be sure to check out the landlord's gallery, Cees makes beautiful paintings.
Ga vooral ook de galerie van de verhuurder bekijken, Cees maakt prachtige schilderwerken.
Nature, peace & environment:Quiet, space, cozy. Warm welcome, everything well taken care of, good bed. I was warned that the driveway was slippery due to frostbite! Lovely jacuzzi.
Rust, ruimte, knus. Warme ontvangst.
Alles goed verzorgd, goed bed. Ik werd gewaarschuwd dat de oprit spekglad was door bevriezing! Heerlijke jacuzzi.This text is automatically translated. -
Jana December 12, 2025 General rating:The busy N road can be heard very well. We had read about this in the reviews, so we were prepared for it. It did not bother us (the jacuzzi drowns out the car noise), but if you really want peace and quiet, this road can be disturbing.
De drukke N-weg is erg goed te horen. Wij hadden dit al gelezen in de reviews, dus we waren er op ingesteld. Het heeft ons niet gestoord (de jacuzzi overstemt de autogeluiden), maar als je écht rust wilt, kan deze weg storend zijn.
Nature, peace & environment:Cozy, nice cottage with lots of privacy. Pretty basic, but fully equipped. Friendly welcome by Jantsje. Jacuzzi and sauna are definitely a plus!
Gezellig, fijn huisje met veel privacy. Vrij basic, maar van alle gemakken voorzien. Vriendelijk onthaald door Jantsje. Jacuzzi en sauna zijn absoluut een pluspunt!

Lea October 14, 2025 General rating:Comfortable and sufficiently furnished and no neighbors around. Very nice hosts. The cleanliness was fine, but everything is a bit outdated. The whirlpool is large and the sauna is big enough for two people. The outdoor shower and the cold water pool round off the sauna session perfectly. The cottage offers several places to relax. Overall, we were very satisfied with the cozy, private, wellness trip :)
Gemütlich und ausreichend eingerichtet und keine Nachbarn drumherum. Sehr nette Gastgeber. Die Sauberkeit war in Ordnung, allerdings ist alles etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Der Whirlpool ist groß und die Sauna ausreichend für zwei Personen. Die Außendusche und das Kaltwasserbecken runden den saunagang perfekt ab. Das Häuschen bietet mehrere Plätze zur Erholung. Insgesamt waren wir sehr zufrieden mit dem kuscheligen, privaten, Wellnestrip :)
Nature, peace & environment:A separate, very green and secluded area of the property (farm) is available. You can hear the road nearby, but this can easily be blocked out. Otherwise you are completely undisturbed, as the neighbors live a few fields away.
Ein eigener, sehr grüner und nicht einsehbarer Bereich des Grundstücks (Bauernhof) steht zur Verfügung. Man hört die Straße in der Nähe, aber das kann gut ausgeblendet werden. Ansonsten ist man komplett ungestört, da die Nachbarn erst einige Felder weiter wohnen.
