Nature and surroundings

There are several beautiful biking, hiking, and canoeing opportunities in the immediate area such as the famous Pontjesroute; which takes cyclists by several ferries through a picturesque landscape. Sea, dunes and forest can be visited at less than 10 km in Castricum (9 km), Egmond aan Zee (15 km), Heilooerbos (11 km). In the nearby village of Uitgeest there is a beautiful sandy beach on the Alkmaardermeer that is easily accessible both by car and bicycle. In Akersloot is a sunbathing area with swimming jetty. In the evening you can enjoy the peace and quiet on the terrace or under the canopy of the Bollenschuur. Or from a nice walk through the village on old village roads along the mill or the ferry. Beautiful and quiet is a walk along the Alkmaardermeer to the Hempolder; the meadow bird area with the black-tailed godwit, lapwing, redshank, shoveler, gadwall and sometimes even the ruff. From Klein Dorregeest a dead-end polder road takes you to the viewing hut.

    An excellent cottage where we stayed for 5 days. The supermarket is nearby and the area lends itself very well to beautiful bike rides. Beautiful watery landscapes.Lovely to have everything on the ground floor.The beds were very nice.In the kitchen was everything you need.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    Space: fantastic, what a beautiful spacious room. Quietness: well, there are quite a lot of planes landing, and the A9 is 100 m away. For a week it is fine.

    The only drawback is the noise from the highway and air traffic to and from Schiphol Airport. In winter it doesn't bother you as much because the windows insulate well, but if you sit outside in summer it seems less soothing to me.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    The cottage is very cozy and tastefully decorated. You can enjoy cycling and walking in the area to both beach and dunes as well as to the Hempolder and the Alkmaardermeer. Also a trip to Alkmaar and Hoorn is beautiful.

    A wonderful place to unwind. A large lawn with trees around it where you can sit all day in the sun or shade
