We had a fantastic stay at Henk’s place. The area is charming and peaceful - it feels very rural but is only a 30 min bike ride into the city centre. You can use the bikes at Henk’s place to explore the nearby towns, which are gorgeous and are home to some great little restaurants and cafes. The best bit is you get to ride on dedicated bike paths through the fields, passing by cows and swans and horses as you go. Bliss!
Every morning you wake up to an excellent breakfast served at whatever time you choose. We really appreciated this extra touch!
If you plan to arrive via public transport it would be a good idea to get updated instructions from Henk first - when we arrived the bus routes had changed and google maps hadn’t caught up with the changes yet, so we had great difficulty finding our way there and ended up getting a taxi. If you visit in summer it may also be worth taking a mosquito net so you can open the room up at night and enjoy the cool breeze without getting bitten.
We definitely recommend staying at Henk’s place and we hope to do so again one day, if we are lucky!
