Nature and surroundings
The dunes surrounding the lighthouse are among the oldest on the island, as evidenced by reindeer moss, for example. You can easily bike to the beach along the northern tip of the Slufter. Enjoy a lovely walk in the Slufter, through the dunes, on the beach, or take a loop around the lighthouse with a view of the sea (and seals). Bike routes cover the entire island. Spoonbills in the Muij and the Schorren; you can also reach the mudflats in no time via the lighthouse. Enjoy a refreshing breeze, and in the evening, all the comforts of a cozy cottage, silence, and the light of the lighthouse in the distance. Spot your first robin right at breakfast. Books about the island are available, along with a simple pair of binoculars and a bird guide. Wi-Fi and TV are included, of course. Charming villages on the island—there’s always something new to discover. We rent out the cottage on an occasional basis and usually only at short notice to allow for flexibility.

We (ages 75 and 70) had a great time in this cottage with very complete furnishings and huge yard with unobstructed views behind. Although nearby neighbors but not bothered by them.Funny, the items from the sixties and seventies.Very pleasant app contact with the owner of the cottage.
We (75 en 70 jaar) hebben het enorm naar ons zin gehad in dit huisje met zeer complete inrichting en enorm erf met vrij uitzicht achter. Wel nabije buren maar geen last van gehad.
Grappig, de items uit de zestig en zeventiger jaren.
Zeer prettig app-contact met de eigenaar van het huisje.The area, except for some construction activity, was wonderfully quiet. The birds were easy to hear.
De omgeving was, op wat bouwactiviteiten na, heerlijk rustig. De vogels waren goed hoorbaar.

just satisfied.
gewoon tevreden.
We were looking for the peace and quiet of the island of Texel and we found it. A well-equipped cottage with a fine contact with the owner.
We zochten de rust en stilte van het eiland Texel en die hebben we gevonden. Een goed geoutilleerd huisje met een fijn contact met de eigenaresse.
