    L'accueil de Ineke. L'espace dans le gîte avec la vue sur le lac. Le calme. La situation dans la campagne et aux milieux des canaux. Les pistes cyclables qui permettent de rejoindre les différents villages alentours. Amsterdam à 30 minutes en bus.

    Locatie is schitterend voor een (fiets)vakantie in de waterrijke prachtige streek en dichtbij Amsterdam. Mooi zicht vanuit de living. Heel goed bed. Keuken en benodigdheden ok. Heel vriendelijk onthaal en vlotte communicatie

    Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig, mit einem schönen Blick über den See nach Amsterdam. Man ist aber, z.Bsp. mit dem Fahrrad, schnell in den nächsten Dörfern und den nächsten Sehenswürdigkeiten. Auch die Fahrt mit den öffentlichen Verkehsmitteln ist ganz...

    La casa es preciosa, tiene muchos detalles, es muy cómoda, las vistas son preciosas y además está super cerca del centro a menos de 20 min en coche. Ireke la anfitriona es la mejor, nos hizo sentir como en casa. Repetiremos.

    La amabilidad, la comodidad, es como estar en casa, te acostumbras rápido. Lo unico malo, pero ideal para nosotros es que este alejado de todo, pero lo compensan los preciosos paisajes y los animalitos.

LOVELY LARGE WOODEN HOUSE WITH SPECTACULAR VIEWS OF RURAL WATERLAND Waking up in the countryside and yet be in the middle of Dam Square in Amsterdam in 25 minutes? All possible in this romantic nature house in Overleek. With a wide view over the lake, the birds, the sunset, the meadows and closer by, a bunch of cosy chickens and a nice garden. Renting nature cottage Over Lake, means you get 2 bikes with it to explore the area and cycle to the bus stop. That bus will take you in no time (10 minutes) to Amsterdam, Volendam, Edam and picturesque Monnickendam. And then there is the house itself of no less than 90m2. All the space you need to relax in the large living room with open kitchen with oven, stove and Nespresso machine. Just to name a few. From the couch you see the lake, which is great for swimming by the way. In the super spacious bedroom, overlooking the garden, you will sleep tight in the king-size box-spring bed. Of course there is WIFI, free parking in front of the door and, with a bit of luck, a fresh egg from the ladies Hen. You’ll have your own entrance, private garden and terrace, separate bathroom and separate toilet and a canoe to explore Waterland by water. By the way, at the romantic Overleek tea garden across the street, you can hire whisper boats so you don't have to paddle yourself ;-) In short: this brand-new nature cottage lives up to its name, because it is located in the middle of nature with all the peace and quiet that goes with it. While the buzz of Amsterdam is within reach, you’ll have the best of both worlds. Come and see, the rooster is calling you!
Hi, I am Ineke. I enjoy being a host and making you feel at home.
Amsterdam, Volendam, Monnickendam and the Zaanse Schans with its windmills are all close by. There are many museums around, like the Rijksmuseum, the Stedelijk, The Van Gogh. Amsterdam has many delicious restaurants and there are options closer by in Monnickendam, Broek in. Waterland and Ilpendam.
