Nature and surroundings

A dense network of bike junctions has been established around Leens, and there are various hiking trails. Also in the area: beautiful Groningen villages, including Winsum, Zoutkamp, and Pieterburen, as well as the Lauwersmeer nature reserve and water sports park. Just twenty minutes away: the fish auction in Lauwersoog, featuring several seafood restaurants and the departure and arrival point for the ferry to Schiermonnikoog. Newly opened: the De Ploeg Museum in Wehe-den Hoorn and the Wadden Sea World Heritage Center in Lauwersoog. Also in Leens: the Verhildersum manor and estate, a large outdoor swimming pool, and well-stocked Jumbo and Aldi supermarkets. We’d be happy to provide information about the various (seafood) restaurants in the area. Our studio is located in ’t Stort, a small hamlet in North Groningen near Leens, consisting of eight cottages built on an embankment along the canal. The landscape, with its picturesque maren, is a unique vacation destination.

    General rating: 9 /10

    A truly special and lovely place. Beautifully decorated and filled with natural light. Unobstructed views and complete tranquility. If you’re looking to unwind, this is the perfect spot. The very kind hostess makes sure you feel truly welcome.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A lovely home in a beautiful setting by the water with a private garden. The surrounding area features vast fields and scattered mound villages, each one unique, with charming houses in beautiful colors and centuries-old churches—almost all of which are open to the public. There are a surprising number of waterways and plenty of birds. The mudflats are within biking distance. There’s plenty of information available to help you find inspiration for exploring the area.

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
