Frisian Fields Hideaway

The house is located in a small bungalow settlement on the Lauwersmeer. From the dyke you have a spectacular view of the Lauwersmeer National Park. There is a beautiful sandy beach a few hundred metres away. The house is fully equipped for 5 people. There are 2 bedrooms on the top floor, one with a small balcony. The third bedroom is at ground level, i.e. the bathroom and toilet are accessible without the use of stairs. The kitchen has been integrated into the living room, from which you can also access the terrace. The property has its own car park with enough space for two cars. The terrace is not visible from outside due to the greenery. The view is of the Frisian fields. A cot and high chair are available on request. The house is very well maintained. Oostmahorn is a fortified village from the early 16th century with an extensive history on what was then the Lauwerszee. Today it is an attractive tourist destination on the edge of the Lauwersmeer National Park and has two holiday parks. The lake and its immediate surroundings are a paradise for nature lovers, fishermen, water sports enthusiasts, hikers and cyclists. Dog lovers and their four-legged friends also get their money's worth here. Lauwersoog has a dog beach, for example, and you are very welcome in the Ballastplaat forest, among other places. There are various play options for children within a few hundred metres of the chalet, including a climbing frame on the beach, a playing field at De Skâns holiday park and a playground with a bouncy cushion in Esonstad, which is located behind the beach. There is also an indoor play paradise in the old Frisian-style fortified town, which is open for much of the year, and you can play a round of golf or footgolf at the Pitch & Putt. A bicycle or e-chopper can also be hired here. For your daily groceries (a large supermarket is a few kilometres away in Anjum) you can also go to the local supermarket in Esonstad. Other facilities include a restaurant, a pizzeria and a snack bar. Even closer to the chalet - in the marina and on the dyke - there are also 3 excellent restaurants with magnificent views over the Lauwersmeer. You are in the right culinary spot on this former arm of the Wadden Sea. In the harbour of Lauwersoog you will find a variety of fish restaurants and the former seaport of Zoutkamp on the other side of the Lauwersmeer also offers a wide selection of restaurants. Finally, a visit to historic and picturesque Dokkum with its fortresses, shops and terraces is highly recommended. To discover the national park from the water, you can of course bring your own boat, but just around the corner from the chalet you can also hire various sloops, sailing boats or canoes from Paviljoen La Barca. A round trip, a trip to Dokkum or a birdwatching excursion on the former cargo ship Vlinderbalg are also possible, and a ferry to Schiermonnikoog departs from here several times a week. From Lauwersoog, you can take part in seal and mudflat walks and, depending on the tide, enjoy the Wadden Sea World Heritage Site on the dry Engelsmanplaat. The Lauwersmeer is a favourite with fish lovers. Lots of bream and roach swim here, but you can also fish for zander and perch. You can buy a fishing licence at the reception of Holland1. Do you like walking and want to relax? For example, visit the fishing village of Paesens-Moddergat on the sea dike with its museum 't Fiskershúske. You can also go on various daily mudflat walks in this authentic double village. Or simply stay at home in and outside your chalet. Don't forget to look up on a cloudless late evening and enjoy the starry sky and the Milky Way. It is not for nothing that the Lauwersmeer area (together with the Boschplaat on Terschelling) has been declared a Dark Sky Park by the International Dark Sky Association.
