This national monument from 1860 is beautiful and oh so beautifully sober. It stands in the middle of the Noardlike Fryske Wâlden, the beautiful coulisse landscape. Since 2021 we live in this farmhouse with our three young children. In the back of the 'pleats' we have built two cottages with our own hands: 'de ko' and 'it skiep'. Upon entering you will see on one side the cowshed and on the other side the cottages are built. 'De ko' is a cozy space of 40m2, is fully equipped and offers privacy. Private entrance. Welcome with coffee/tea and something typical Frysk. Kitchen: with inventory, oven, hob, dishwasher, refrigerator and kitchen textiles. Private bathroom: toilet, bathtub, rain shower, hairdryer, towels, shower gel and shampoo. Lovely electrically adjustable bed with luxury mattresses. Terrace and several seating areas overlooking the meadows. Ipad (instead of TV) with internet and streaming possibilities. Sitting area with sofa. Lime-free water. Beautifully adjustable lighting. Breakfast in consultation, €12.50 ppp morning.

    Super clean and comfortable cottage with very friendly host. The floor was very cold but the air conditioning heater did warm up quickly for a cozy feeling.

    Highly recommended!!! An excellent accommodation. it was very clean. everything was there. Lovely beds. The farm is located in a rural area with many hiking and cycling opportunities. What a rest! Everything was taken care of in detail and everything is there. We really did not miss anything. Initially we had reserved a breakfast for the first 2 days. This was so well taken care of that we also had breakfast delivered for the rest of the week. This was brought by Wieke (the hostess) every morning at 8:30 a.m. after a knock on the door and a good morning. In the farmhouse was a mini museum where the son (about 7 years old) proudly gave us a tour. Also the owners (Wieke and Douwe) were daily in for a chat and explaining the characteristic farm to us. Our E- bikes could be charged and stored under roof overnight.
