Hi, I’m Mallory, and I warmly welcome you to Het Penceeltje! This chalet is very special to me because it is a tribute to my grandfather Albert. He was a passionate painter and seafarer. His stories and love for the sea and his artwork have shaped the entire atmosphere and decor here. I love offering guests a warm and personal stay, where you can truly relax and feel completely at home. I’m happy to share my local tips and make sure your stay is pleasant in every way. I look forward to meeting you and making sure you have a wonderful, relaxing time in my chalet.
