A nice, simple little cottage on our parents’ property. It’s a former biodynamic farm located on the dike, which we’re turning into a food forest. This cottage offers views stretching all the way to the horizon. It’s a wonderful spot for stargazing with almost no light pollution. The terrace faces south, and there’s an east-facing deck where you can watch the sun rise. The property is freely accessible. The shower, toilet, and kitchen—which includes a dishwasher—are all new. Dogs are welcome and can roam freely. It’s the only vacation cottage on the property, located behind the large stone house and the greenhouse, and can be reached via the bridge and a private path. It’s truly very peaceful there. The cottage comes with bedding. However, you are responsible for making the beds and removing the linens yourself. Please note: You are responsible for cleaning the cottage yourself! Cleaning instructions are provided. It takes about an hour. This will save you €45.

Never again!
Nooit meer!
The cottage was described as simple and was equipped with all amenities. All kinds of spices, tea, coffee, etc. are available. The bed is also delicious. Now the negative points: The immediate vicinity is a mess. Everywhere dekzijl, gang, tall grass and weeds, terrace was built by an amateur and no window can open. Good luck with 4 people, dogs etc. in high summer. The shower turns into a bathtub within 20 seconds. Completely clogged and when reported: are asked if you want to get plunger yourself, or if we wanted to shower at his very elderly parents. On Saturday, Sunday and Monday no usable shower. Sunday we did not even get a response to the app anymore and also the hg plunger we processed ourselves was useless. We wanted simple and quiet, but can say that simple and unkempt are apparently the same. Focus a little less on secondary ditties and that but on functionality, accessibility and finish.
Het huisje werd als eenvoudig omschreven en was met alle gemakken voorzien. Klopt ook.
Allerlei kruiden, thee, koffie e.d. Staan voor je klaar. Het bed ligt ook heerlijk.
Nu de negatieve punten:
De directe omgeving is een zooitje.
Overal dekzijl, bende, hoogstaand gras en onkruid, terras is door een amateur aangelegd en geen enkel raam kan open. Succes met 4 mensen, honden e.d. in hoogzomer. De douche veranderd binnen 20 seconden in een ligbad.
Compleet verstopt en bij melding: word er gevraagd of je zelf ontstopper wilt halen, of dat wij bij zijn hoogbejaarde ouders wilden douchen. Op zaterdag, zondag en maandag geen bruikbare douche. Zondag kregen we zelfs geen reactie meer op de app en ook de hg ontstopper die we zelf hebben verwerkt was nutteloos.
Wij wilden simpel en rust, maar kunnen wel stellen dat simpel en onverzorgd blijkbaar hetzelfde zijn. Richt je iets minder op secundaire ditjes en datjes maar op functionaliteit, bereikbaarheid en afwerking.This text is automatically translated. -

There were fabric rags hanging against the wall in the bedroom. On removable high.(No need to reach) I removed these.
Er hingen in de slaapkamer stof raggen tegen de muur. Op afneembare hoge. (Niet hoeven reiken) Deze heb ik weg gehaald.
Cozy and quiet.
Knus en rustig.

The cottage was not fully fenced,therefore the dog could not run free.The crockery was not complete,no spoons,1 large plate and there were no coffee cups or tea cups.The cottage inside did not seem finished,wooden boards against the walls throughout the cottage,no lick of paint ect.
The cottage is in reality closer to the owners house, on the photos it seems to be further away. The shower walls were very dirty, on the toilet you were almost with your knees against the door. If these things are picked up then kqn you really a super cottage of it. Heating, refrigerator and electric stove worked great and other things are certainly thought. What I also missed was a first aid kit. I had cut my finger and there was 1 plaster in the kitchen drawer.Het huisje was niet volledig omheind, de hond kon daardoor niet loslopen.
Het servies was niet compleet, geen lepels, 1 groot bord en er waren geen koffie kopjes of thee bekers.
Het huisje binnen leek niet af, houten platen tegen de muren in het gehele huisje,geen likje verf ect.
Het huisje staat in werkelijkheid ook dichter bij het huis van eigenaren,op de foto's lijkt het verder weg te staan.
De doucheranden waren erg vies,op het toilet zat je bijna met je knieën tegen de deur aan.
Als deze dingen opgepakt worden dan kqn je er echt een super huisje van maken.
Verwarming,koelkast en elektrische kookplaat werkte uitstekend en aan andere dingen is zeker wel gedacht. Veel kruiden,thee ect.
Wat ik ook miste is een ehbo koffertje. Ik had in mijn vinger gesneden en er lag 1 pleister in de keukenla.The cottage has a wide view of the fields at the front. Wonderfully quiet.
Het huisje heeft aan de voorkant een weids uitzicht over de velden. Heerlijk rustig.
