Clayn Bouckhorst is nestled beneath ever-changing seaside skies and overlooks endless fields. The vacation home is a little oasis of tranquility on the Wadden Sea coast. The chalet is situated on the edge of a farmyard that includes a small farm campground. The former arable farm is a historic farmhouse. There’s plenty of greenery on the farmyard, space to sit, and a place for children to play; guests can also pick produce from the organic garden. The cottage features a cozy living room-kitchen with a large table and a comfortable sitting area. Outside, there are terraces with fantastic views of both the sunrise and the sunset. There’s a nice bathroom with a shower, toilet, and sink (towels included). And there are two bedrooms: one with a double bed and one with a bunk bed (bed linens included). A crib can be set up in the master bedroom. All around the cottage, you can relax on the grass, whether on a garden chair, lounge chair, hammock, or air mattress.

    A wonderfully peaceful place, with both indoor and outdoor seating areas. Everything was very clean, and the people were friendly. We visited Leeuwarden and went birdwatching in Westhoek. It was fantastic.

    You can always find a spot anywhere around the cottage—whether in the sun, in the shade, or under the awning.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    A lovely, neat, and clean cottage in a quiet area (though there is sometimes some noise from the main road) with a beautiful view of the countryside.
