If you’re in the mood for a nice little getaway to enjoy the peace and quiet of Friesland, you’re welcome to stay at our nature house. The cottage is located in the former hayloft of our farm. From here, you’ll have a view of the meadows and the Jorwerdervaart, a branch of the Eleven Cities Route. The apartment has its own entrance, and a gentle staircase (there is no elevator) leads up to the first floor. Here you’ll find a kitchen, a living and sleeping area with two box-spring beds (90 x 210), and a bathroom. The kitchen is equipped with a two-burner stovetop, refrigerator, oven, electric kettle, and coffee maker. Bath towels and kitchen linens are provided, and the beds will be made upon your arrival. Parking is available, and bicycles can be stored in our shed. In short, everything you need for a relaxing stay—cycling, boating, hiking, enjoying the view—it’s all possible here!

Nature and surroundings

Nature and surroundings: The mound village of Bears is located in the heart of Friesland, about a 20-minute drive from Leeuwarden, Sneek, and Bolsward. It is unique because of the Poarte and Uniastate. The Poarte is the old gatehouse that once provided access to Uniastate. “State” is the term used for a former castle or country estate. After Uniastate was demolished in 1756, the idea arose in 1990 to revive the state in the form of a steel replica, as a mirage of the past. It’s definitely worth a visit. The villages of Mantgum and Deinum are just a few kilometers away by bike. There you’ll find a bakery and a supermarket. There are also several restaurants and cafes within walking or biking distance. There are many excursions to enjoy in the surrounding area. These include a visit to the Fries Museum in Leeuwarden, the mummies in Wieuwerd, or the Planetarium in Franeker.
