This nature house is located in the Front House of a North Holland long-house farmhouse, situated at the foot of the Dune Reserve and on the edge of the field. The farmhouse was completely renovated in 2012 in 1930s style. The owners live in the bell house and are therefore close by but all privacy is guaranteed. There is generous entrance, for coats and boots. In the spacious and cozy living room with windows on 3 sides, there is a large dining table and a sitting area with TV (and wifi). The eat-in kitchen invites you to cook. Usually the owners bring some goodies from the harvest. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and a luxury bathroom with bathtub and walk-in shower (separate toilet). In the garden there is a picnic table and lazy chairs, in or out of the sun, in or out of the wind. For the kids there is a large lawn. Changeover days are Mon-Fri. A weekend Friday-Sunday is also possible, then Sunday is late check-out. Off season and Ascension can be shifted, but min 3 dgn, send a message via "contact".
Nature and surroundings
This nature house is completely energy neutral, ground source heat pump and solar panels provide our energy. The farmhouse is located on a dead-end street, between farms and nature reserves. The beach is 3km away, cycling or walking through the North Holland dune reserve with its forests and the open hilly dunes. Also great for cycling and walking from Haarlem to Den Helder. In the backyard is the beautiful open field with nature reserves Seerijdtsdijkje and Zuiddijk and also the Tankval, a beautiful bird and fish-rich lake. The bus stops at about 200 m. Train station Castricum is about 3 km away, making Amsterdam, Haarlem and Alkmaar easily accessible by public transport. With own transport you are from the A-9 also quickly in Bakkum/Castricum. The Hortus Bolborum in Limmen, the Cheese Market in Alkmaar, the Egmonden, Amsterdam-Centrum .... it's all a stone's throw away. If your desired start date is not available, please check if the other days are possible via "contact"!

Sandy August 29, 2025 General rating:It is a lovely spacious cottage with full kitchen and three bedrooms. Ideal for a company.
Het is een heerlijk ruim huisje met complete keuken en drie slaapkamers. Ideaal voor een gezelschap.
Nature, peace & environment:The cottage is located on the outskirts of Bakkum. From the living room you have a view of the landscaped (flower) garden and meadow. Planes do fly depending on the wind but we did not find that disturbing.
Het huisje ligt op de rand van Bakkum. Vanuit de woonkamer heb je uitzicht op de aangelegde (bloemen)tuin en weiland. Wel vliegen er vliegtuigen afhankelijk van de wind maar wij vonden dat niet storend.

Geanne August 4, 2025 General rating:Beautiful place!
Prachtige plek!
Nature, peace & environment:We were there with our family, two adults and two adolescents. A beautiful, spacious house with large kitchen and a nice outdoor area. The beach is 3 km away, nearby are numerous opportunities for walking and cycling in nature. You can buy tickets everywhere to enter the dune area (6 euros p.p.p.w. for adults). We went to Alkmaar for a day by train, a journey of less than fifteen minutes from Castricum station. Bakkum/Castricum are under an approach route from Schiphol Airport, but we did not experience this as a nuisance. Nancy the landlord was very friendly and accessible in communication. The arrival time was flexible in consultation, which was nice. highly recommended this place!
Wij waren er met ons gezin, twee volwassenen en twee pubers. Een mooi, ruim huis met grote keuken en een lekkere buitenruimte. Het strand is op 3 km afstand, vlakbij zijn talloze mogelijkheden om te wandelen en te fietsen in de natuur. Je kunt overal kaartjes kopen om het duingebied in te mogen (6 euro p.p.p.w. voor volwassenen). Wij zijn een dagje naar Alkmaar geweest met de trein, een reis van minder dan een kwartier vanaf station Castricum. Bakkum/Castricum liggen onder een aanvliegroute van Schiphol, maar wij hebben dat niet als hinderlijk ervaren.
Nancy de verhuurder was heel vriendelijk en toegankelijk in de communicatie. De aankomsttijd was in overleg flexibel, dat was fijn.
Een aanrader deze plek!This text is automatically translated. -

Alles is aanwezig, geweldige keuken, heel royale badkamer, ruime slaapkamers. Grote tafel(s) in de woonkamer, fijn om samen te eten, te puzzelen, een gezelschapspel te spelen. De ruimte om het huis, maakt het af. Het is een prachtige plek om te zijn
Nature, peace & environment:Spacious front house, flowers along the house, lots of space around the house, view of a beautiful vegetable garden and outside you have the view of the meadows, On dead end street, little traffic. Beautiful surroundings, fine combination of meadows, varied dunes with forest and the sea.
Ruim voorhuis, bloemen langs het huis, veel ruimte om het huis, zicht op een mooie moestuin en buiten heb je het zicht op de weilanden, Aan doodlopende straat, weinig verkeer. Mooie omgeving, fijne combinatie van weilanden, afwisselend duingebied met bos en de zee.
