Beautiful, characteristic and cozy cottage of about 100 years old. The cozy living room has a large window overlooking the fields, birds, and in the distance the lighthouse of Ameland. There are some board games, binoculars, and books. Note: no TV channels, but there is a TV and beamer. The kitchen has a dining table, gas stove, microwave oven, refrigerator with freezer and dishwasher. Also on the ground floor is a bedroom with a double bed. In a separate room there is a toilet, shower, washing machine and dryer. Beware, the stairs upstairs are a bit steep. On the second floor is a play attic with a bedroom on either side. On one side is "the storm room," so called because you can hear the wind blowing there for 100 years when it's been blowing hard, with a double bed. The bedroom on the other side has a double bed. All in all, a wonderful base to enjoy Ameland!

    The house was fine for us! (H)honestly old and cozy. No luxury and we love that. Everything we needed was there (and more) The wood stove has more than snored and gave cozy warmth. We have had a wonderful week with many different natural phenomena: thick snow, storm, fog, rain, sleet and blue skies with sunshine! What a boon.We will definitely come back when we can bike in spring or fall.Our thanks for the hospitality enjoyed.

    I pick a 7. The cottage is fine but it is not luxuriously or modernly furnished. We did not know exactly what to expect, but if it is clean and everything works, we think it is good. Even though it is somewhat dated in terms of furnishings and technology we found it to have a pleasant atmosphere and appearance. The home theater experience advertised is not there, with such a description you expect more. There is a beamer and you can watch film on the wall, and that's about it. That's a bit different from a bioscreen experience. Good enough for a cozy family evening, it's a very quiet place and you have a lot of privacy. It's not completely enclosed, a passerby can glimpse into the garden, but there's enough privacy to sunbathe or have dinner together in the garden.

    Wonderful peace and quiet in the area. Occasionally you can hear some agricultural traffic or cattle (sheep). But especially many birds, swallows and oystercatchers and many more species. Nice atmospheric villages in the area, especially Ballum and Hollum, are a short bike ride away. We also loved the beach at Ballum. Lots of space on the beach, also a nice place to swim. At night from the cottage overlooking the meadows and look towards Hollum and the lighthouse.
