This is a two person apartment on Terschelling located in our former farmhouse in the village of Kinnum. No pets allowed. There is a private terrace and a spacious communal garden at the cottage. There is a lot of peace around the house and you have an unobstructed view over the meadows and the Wadden dike at 150 meters. Midsland is within walking/cycling distance and West Terschelling is also easily accessible. The cottage is furnished for 2 persons and has a living room with dining area and open kitchen. Downstairs you will also find the bathroom with shower and toilet. The bedroom is upstairs and has two single beds. From the skylight you have a panoramic view over the mudflats to the mainland. The kitchen includes a microwave/oven. There is also a washer and dryer in the house. Of course there is also TV and internet in the vacation cottage. On the south side is a private terrace. Tip: If you reserve bikes in advance e.g. www.Tijsknop.nl you will receive a discount of 10%.
Nature and surroundings
The nature house is located in the quiet village of Kinnum in the polder of Terschelling just below the wadden sea dike. 5 km from the ferry. Birding is possible everywhere, in the polder is a meadow bird eldorado, over the dike to the Wadden Sea ditto, only these are again mudflats birds, but directly around the cottage, the birds are also numerous. The forest is also nearby, as well as the beautiful dune area. The North Sea beach at Midsland aan zee is 4.3 km cycling, The beach at West aan Zee can be reached on foot in 4 km through a partly unpaved path. The truly unique nature reserve "Boschplaat" is a small 10 km cycling or walking, it may all. What I would find convenient when I go to the island, is to put the car on long parking in Harlingen, take the boat, rent a (electric) bike, and start enjoying, the bike rental company brings and retrieves you luggage for free, it's just a tip!!!

't Kokkeltje is one of the four apartments on the grounds of Chéz Paulien. It has recently been completely renovated and looks neat and modern inside. And spotless. Downstairs, there’s a small living room with a kitchen and a spacious, pleasant bathroom with a shower and toilet. A steep, narrow staircase leads up to the cozy bedroom, which has plenty of storage space and a skylight offering a view of the mudflats. It’s really nice to sit outside here, either in the private garden or in the spacious, peaceful shared garden. You can park your bike in the covered bike shed, where you can also charge it. Kinnum is centrally located on the island, making it an excellent base for exploring. We had a wonderful week and will definitely return to this nature house.
't Kokkeltje is een van de vier appartementen op het erf van Chéz Paulien. Het is recent helemaal opgeknapt en ziet er van binnen keurig en modern uit. En brandschoon. Beneden een kleine woonkamer met keuken en een ruime, fijne badkamer met douche en wc. Via een steile smalle trap kom je in de prettige slaapkamer met veel opbergruimte en vanuit een dakraam zicht op het wad. Je kunt er echt lekker buiten zitten, in het privétuintje of in de ruime, rustige gemeenschappelijke tuin. Je fiets stal je in de overdekte stalling waar je 'm ook op kan laden. Kinnum ligt centraal op het eiland, zodat het een heel goede uitvalsbasis is. Wij hebben een heel fijne week gehad en komen zeker terug in dit natuurhuisje.
From the boat, cycle straight onto the Waddendijk, take the Baaiduinen exit, and you’re there! It’s wonderfully peaceful and surrounded by the island’s natural beauty. Because it’s located in the Terschelling polder, there’s plenty of space all around you—and the large communal garden certainly adds to that feeling.
Vanaf de boot meteen de Waddendijk op fietsen, afslag Baaiduinen en je bent er! Heerlijk rustig en omringd door de natuur van het eiland. Doordat het in de Terschellinger polder ligt heb je overal ruimte om je heen, de grote gemeenschappelijke tuin draagt hier zeker aan bij.

The description on the website says there is a dishwasher and a washing machine, but they weren't there. Also, the hostess didn't welcome us. We didn't see her until day 3.
In de beschrijving op de website staat dat er een vaatwasser en wasmachine aanwezig zijn, maar die waren er niet. Verder werden we niet welkom geheten door de gastvrouw. We zagen haar pas op dag 3.
A lovely private garden and a communal garden, and close to the seawall. Also within biking and walking distance of downtown Midsland for grocery shopping and restaurants. All in all, a prime location!
Fijn privétuintje en gemeenschappelijke tuin en dichtbij de zeedijk. Ook op fiets- en loopafstand van het centrum van Midsland voor boodschappen en restaurantjes. Alles bij elkaar een toplocatie!

Well-maintained and clean.
Verzorgd en schoon.
Small, but fully equipped. I was there alone; would it be a little cramped for two?
Klein, maar volledig. Ik was er alleen; met twee een beetje krap?
