Dünenkate, Deutschland

Close to cycling, this smoke-free cottage brings it all within reach. There's convenient onsite parking, so you can leave your vehicle behind and let your feet make short work of the 7-minute walk to Sankt Peter Ording Beach or the 8-minute walk to Schleswig-Holstein Wadden Sea National Park. If you're looking to expand your horizons and see other nearby locales, you can catch a train at Bad St. Peter South Station, a short 11-minute walk away.

Relax in the garden or sip a drink on the deck or patio of this 1184-sq-ft cottage. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the WiFi and TV.

Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And because there's a washer and dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing. Other amenities include a fireplace, bed sheets, an ironing board, and heating.
