Cozy guesthouse overlooking the meadows at the back, while at the front from the dike you overlook the harbor of Durgerdam. Water sports enthusiasts can enjoy themselves: the house is located on the Zuiderzeedijk. Ideal base for walking and cycling through Waterland, with the city just around the corner. Only 6 km from the center of Amsterdam you can enjoy everything Amsterdam has to offer. In addition, you can enjoy running, swimming, canoeing, fishing, windsurfing, sailing and there is also a golf course nearby. The living room adjoins the terrace overlooking the ditch and meadows where cows graze in summer, and also meadow birds, hares and pheasants scurry around. On the terrace (facing west) you can barbecue in the setting sun.

Nature and surroundings

Durgerdam is a picturesque former fishing village on the Zuiderzeedijk, under the smoke of Amsterdam. The place consists almost entirely of a long row of picturesque - mostly wooden - houses on a narrow road on top of the old Zuiderzeedijk and has had a protected village sight since 1976. The village is surrounded by water on one side and meadows on the other, an area known as Waterland. It is a peat meadow landscape bordering the Markermeer, where many meadow and water birds rest and forage. Small game such as hares, pheasants and the like are also often seen there.

    It is a nice little house but the cottage deserves some love in the form of a lick of paint on the walls, paint on the window frames and doorposts, a window washer, a carpenter for the hole in the window frame, a handyman for a new front door, a new coffee maker, vinegar for the kettle and perhaps a new wider shower stall. The cabin closes with 2 doors but the space left to get in may be just too tight for slightly creamy, soft people. The temperature of the shower is lovely though! Oh yes, and please more teaspoons. We can get by with 1 spoonful, but still... The refrigerator door makes a weird noise when opening, but again the fridge does a super job. Wifi is good, but there is no TV, so a laptop or tablet would come in handy. Otherwise, the cottage is tastefully decorated. Well, and the garden is a bit messy, as a previous review said, but you don't notice that once you are in the cottage.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The peace and nature near the cottage was wonderful. Despite being very close to Amsterdam you still experience a tranquility through the nature reserve with lots of birds just behind the cottage. You look out there and there is plenty to see. The host people were very nice and made us feel welcome.

    It was an all-round satisfying stay. The cottage and facilities correspond to the pictures and description and everything is there that you need for a few relaxing, unhurried days.
    Very friendly landlord.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The terrace borders directly on pastureland separated only by the drainage ditch...ducks and swans in the foreground, sheep with their lambs in the background, a rural idyll in a picturesque old fishing village...dreamlike.
