Nature and surroundings
The Wadden side of Texel has a very different atmosphere, no tourist crowds but an oasis of peace and space on our organic estate/ orchard, a nature plot where we sow wild herbs and plants. Our yard and garden are an oasis for insects and wild birds. We cater to nature lovers who love peace and quiet. The nature house is one hundred meters from the World Heritage Site of the Wadden Sea. A bicycle route along the dike takes you past several special nature reserves that are important breeding and foraging areas for numerous birds. On the way to the fishing village of Oudeschild there is a beach where you can take a refreshing dip in the salty water. The vacation home is located 1 kilometer from the picturesque village of Oosterend. The historic village has a supermarket, a bicycle rental and a number of cozy eateries. In front of our door is a stop of the Texelhopper that takes you to and from the ferry.

A vacation home is always different from your home environment, where everything is tailored to your personal preferences and tastes. Because of this, there’s always something that isn’t quite perfect, but even that has its charm. In any case, our stay in this cottage was completely satisfying, and we’d definitely do it again.
Een vakantiehuisje blijft toch altijd anders dan de omgeving thuis waar alles aan eigen persoonlijke wensen en smaak voldoet. Hierdoor is er altijd wel iets te vinden wat net niet helemaal perfect is, maar ook dat heeft zijn charme. Het verblijf in dit huisje was hoe dan ook naar volle tevredenheid en zeker voor herhaling vatbaar.
Last year, I ended up here by chance (in the adjacent “Wulp” cottage) and got to enjoy the peace and quiet, so this year I chose the slightly more spacious “Tureluur” from the same landlord.
Ton is a helpful landlord who’s always available to answer any questions you might have. You can store your bikes inside the shed and charge them there. Plus, you’re far away from the hustle and bustle here, with the charming village of Oosterend within walking distance. The entire island is easily accessible from here by (electric) bike. If you want to explore the whole island but still enjoy some peace and quiet in the evenings, this is the perfect spot. Nature lovers will undoubtedly appreciate the natural area surrounding the cottage and the swallows that come here to enjoy the peace and quiet of the surroundings.Vorig jaar bij toeval hier terecht gekomen (in het naastgelegen "Wulp" huisje) en de rust mogen ervaren en voor dit jaar het iets ruimere 'Tureluur' van dezelfde verhuurder gekozen.
Ton is een betrokken verhuurder waarbij je terecht kan met eventuele vragen. De fietsen mogen binnen in de schuur staan en worden opgeladen. Verder zit je hier ver weg van de drukte met het leuke dorpje Oosterend op loopafstand. Het gehele eiland is vanuit hier goed bereikbaar met de (elektrische) fiets. Wie het hele eiland wilt kunnen bezoeken maar 's avonds toch van de rust wilt genieten zit hier goed. Natuurliefhebbers weten ongetwijfeld de strook natuur rondom het huisje en de zwaluwen die hier van de rust en omgeving genieten te waarderen.This text is automatically translated. -

A friendly and helpful host; we were allowed to store the bikes in the shed and load them there as well. The windows had screens, and everything you could need was provided. Personally, I missed having a small table next to the couch to set down a glass or cup, but I’d definitely stay here again!
Een aardige en behulpzame gastheer,de fietsen mochten in de schuur en daar ook geladen worden. De ramen waren voorzien van hor,alles wat je nodig hebt was aanwezig. Wat ik persoonlijk miste was een klein tafeltje bij de bank,om je glas of kopje neer te zetten,maar zeker voor herhaling vatbaar!
The cottage is in a quiet location, with plenty of space and a nice view of the meadows
Het huisje is rustig gelegen,ruimte genug met een leuk uitzicht over de weilanden

Helpful landlord. Beautiful view.
Behulpzame verhuurder. Mooi uitzicht.
Beautiful location. It's a great place for a walk, and it's close to Texel's bird-watching trail. And it's really, really peaceful there.
Mooie locatie. Je kan er mooi wandelen en het is vlakbij de vogelboulevard van Texel. En het is er echt heel rustig.
