Stay in the Alde Feanen nature reserve, in the outskirts of the village of Earnewald (Eernewoude). Discover, from the house, the National Park on foot (1 July to 1 April) or by canoe (all year). Nearby are plenty of other hiking trails that you can enjoy all year. Located in the middle of the ferry-bike route. Downstairs you will find hall, bedroom, bathroom and spacious kitchen, with patio doors to a private terrace, adjacent to the animal pasture. Upstairs you will find the living room. Wake up to the sounds of geese flying overhead, fall asleep to the sounds of crickets and frogs. Enjoy dancing birds in the sky. The joy of living that we experience, the peace, quiet and tranquility with which we sink into the peat soil is something we wish for everyone. "We" are Klaas van der Veen and Harriëtte Modderman. We would like to welcome you to this beautiful place in the "Empty Middle" of Friesland.

Nature and surroundings

The Alde Feanen consists of a varied low moorland swamp with lakes, peat pools, cap holes, quaking bogs, peat moss reedbeds, bluegrasslands, reedbeds, kingcup hay meadows and marsh forests. More than 500 species of higher plants are found, including several species of sedges and orchids. More than 100 different species of birds nest. In winter, large numbers of geese, ducks and waders roost in the area. In early spring you will find several thousand waders such as ruff, black-tailed godwit and the curlew migrating through.National Park De Alde Feanen (meaning: "The Old Fens", Frisian: Nasjonaal Park De Alde Feanen) is located in the province of Friesland, around the village of Earnewâld. The national park has an area of nearly 4,000 ha. This makes it the largest contiguous nature reserve on the mainland of the province of Friesland. Less than 50 meters from your accommodation. You can walk straight into the nature reserve. By canoe or supboard, nature is even closer at hand.

    A lovely spot. A clean, cozy home. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the appliances you could need. The living room is upstairs, which took some getting used to for our dogs, who aren’t used to walking up stairs, but the atmosphere and the view of the meadows and the clouds drifting by are wonderful. Our only criticism was the bed—a very hard mattress, but that’s a matter of taste. However, the bed frame creaked with every movement, which didn’t help our sleep. A lovely, spacious garden where the dogs can run free. You do have to be careful with small dogs, though, because the gap between the bottom two planks of the fence separating the garden from the animal pasture is quite wide, so small dogs could get through to the animals. The fence between the garden and the road is well secured. The peace and quiet around the house is wonderful and restorative. An unforgettable experience.

    Response from the host:
    Dear guest,
    thank you so much! We’ll look for a “quiet” bed.
    Thank you in advance, Harriette and Klaas

    The location of this house is breathtaking. From the house and the garden, you have a direct view of the beautiful landscape. All day long, you can hear and see birds; a pair of swans with their cygnets rest on the bank of the ditch in the garden, and a pheasant walks among the goats in the animal pen. From the house, you can walk straight into the beautiful nature reserve, with plenty of hiking trails. Unfortunately, many of the hiking trails were closed until July 1 during our stay due to the breeding season, but thanks to a tip from the owner, we were able to take a few lovely walks with our dogs a short drive away. For anyone who loves peace, nature, hiking, or biking, this is paradise on earth. The friendly and hospitable owners make the experience complete. We look back on a wonderful weekend in this beautiful area.
