Nature and surroundings

A laying field is an elongated island left over from peat cutting. This is where the peat was laid out to dry. It is parcelled out in parts, and this is 2.5 parts, so quite large. From the mooring, where you can park for free, it's about 15 minutes by boat through the beautiful, primeval Dutch landscape. The route is simple. Next to the log cabin you look out over a nature reserve with the most beautiful sunsets. The island is full of flowers, trees and plants. Outdoor lights glow as the sun sets. The Vinkeveen lake is praised for its clear swimming water and is a Valhalla for anglers. There are eateries, supermarkets and other stores in Vinkeveen and nearby Abcoude and Mijdrecht. The nature reserve Botshol is enormously worth wandering through with a subboard or canoe. Upon arrival you will be brought and shown your way. No sailing after sunset and before sunrise on boat rentals, so not suitable if you want to dive into the nightlife especially in Amsterdam.

    There was no indication that you had to bring your own drinking water.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    Cozy cottage, beautiful on the water. But because opposite cottages are quite close, you have little privacy. Facilities are minimal and when it rains there is not really room for 4 people to sit comfortably.

    Be sure to bring your own bedding and towels. Beds are reasonable, I think ke in the trailer is most comfortable. Most days it was nice and quiet one evening/night we were bothered by a neighbor who played very loud music.

    We have been here with 3 kids aged 8, 11 and 13 and we had a great week! Please note that you have to rent the boat if you do not have a boat yourself. This is a nice spacious boat that is easy to handle even if you have no experience. The atmosphere on the island is lovely, green, great swimming water, surfboards, canoe, lovely hot tub and beautiful vintage folding camper. It is basic (m.n. the open outdoor shower) and there is limited water, gas cooking, bbq and in gas bbq but if you like that (and we do) then all that is no problem at all. It is important that you have good weather, because there is not much else to do. In terms of stuff there is a lot, small fridge (no freezer), pans, crockery and cutlery, candles and cozy lights coffee, tea, basic spices, there were briquettes and there was firewood for the hot tub and firebowl (pay separately), inflatable toys for the kids and trampoline. etc

    It was super!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    What a wonderful place to unwind and explore the area. Landlady has made the island a beautiful place with trees, plants and flowers. On the deck chairs on the decking you can see the water birds and the setting sun. When the weather is a little less, it is lovely in the hot tub. And with the boat we took beautiful trips. We will definitely come back again!
