The Chinese suite is a lovely, spacious room in the top of the house with a very comfortable bed and quirky decorations. The breakfast is delicious and very generous and it’s possible to cook simple meals in the open plan kitchen area and to sit out on the deckchairs or swingseat on the porch overlooking the beautiful gardens. There are chickens and ducks and some very friendly cats too, to make the place feel homey.
The house is quite far from central Amsterdam (about 20 mins on the metro and then a 15 minute walk through woodland), but we found it nice to be out of the city and nearby some green space. I would mention that there is a main road just by the house though, so it’s not a complete getaway!
We had a problem when we arrived as the room hadn’t been prepared for us - there was debris left by the previous guests, the bin was full, there were dirty towels on the floor and the toilet needed cleaning. We messaged and were given fresh towels but the rest wasn’t cleaned while we were there. At the point when we arrived (quite late in the evening) this definitely put me off the house, but everything else was so lovely that I can definitely forgive it!
