The village is very nice and quite. Unfortunately we didn't live in the independent cottage next to Henk's house, which we looked forward to. Instead we lived in the attic. It's really a pity for us.
Anyway, Henk and his wife were friendly. He told us a lot of information about how to get downtown Amsterdam and where to eat. We borrowed bicycles and rode to the city, which was a great experience! Strongly recommended!
