This nature house is very and only suitable for people who love 'back to basics' and make a conscious choice to do so. We rent out 4 'tinyhouses' on a still working dairy farm. There are 4 showers, 4 toilets and 6 sinks, but not in the house itself. If you don't mind walking 20 steps and getting some fresh air, you've come to the right place! Because we have chosen to rent the cottages year round, there is no running water. However, there is, each Tiny house has a 20 liter jerry can with tap, which you can fill at the sanitary building! You really won't miss the "running hot water"! The cottage is equipped with a kitchen with an induction hob, kitchenette with coffee maker no 4, kettle and sink, so you can just wash dishes in the cottage! Each cottage has a private jacuzzi. Surcharge use jacuzzi 25 euros per night. Bed, hand and linen is included in the price.

Nature and surroundings

itzum is a small and cozy village with about 250 inhabitants, located on the Arumervaart canal. The village is located under the smoke of Franeker and Harlingen. Via the Hitzumer-Binnenpad one is within 10 minutes in Franeker. In addition, during the day public transportation is well arranged. Almost every hour a bus goes to Franeker and towards Harlingen/ Sneek. The NS station is located on the south side of Franeker. Hitzum is one of the oldest villages in Franekeradeel. It is a mound village, whose first habitation dates back to the beginning of the era. A number of mounds can still be found in and around the village. Around the turn of the century a large number of mounds were excavated. A number of steep edges of these excavations can still be found in the village. In addition, a number of plots were dug off for pan work and tile manufacturing. Along the west side of the village runs the Arumervaart canal. From this canal runs an upstream canal to the Noorderbuurt. From this canal you can sail/suip or canoe anywhere.

    1.5 day in advance I was told that the house was double booked, I had to come a day later. Very unfortunate, due to all the fireworks and my scared dogs I had booked 4 months in advance. I found this very unfortunate and a bit late reaction from the landlady. The landlady did her best to make it up to me, I got my money back for that night anyway. In the end it was fine!

    Nice view from the cottage. Cottage was nicely decorated, landlady was friendly. Unfortunately less fireworks than expected, cottage was not very clean. I have 3 small dogs, found t very uncomfortable that the large dog vd landlady ran loose, he did nothing, but I found t just not pleasant that he ran loose around the cottages. I had indicated that one of my dogs does not get along with all dogs. Walking was really poop and pee and quickly back into the house. I went home a day early, back to basics is apparently not my thing, I prefer luxury and comfort. That was not because of the house and the environment, but purely because of me!

    Although the cottages are all attractively designed inside and out, the cleanliness and maintenance unfortunately leave a lot to be desired. Tip: make sure you bring your own cleaning products, disinfectant wipes, bedding and towels.

    5/5

    Idyllically and quietly situated, we found the proximity to the farm and its sounds and smells enriching, not at all disturbing. A beautiful environment full of birds, frogs, rare insects, cows, calves and dogs, simply perfect as a Nature house.
