If you going to visit Amsterdam there is only one way to see it and that is by staying in a beautiful cottage with Henk and his wife. My family of three received a warm greeting when we arrived from Henke and his dog Oli. Our home away from home was spotlessly clean, the bed was very comfortable and breakfast was AMAZING; I had my first experience with fresh cow’s milk (Thanks Henk!!). We were provided with a local area reference book, maps and bikes to ride. I suggest that while staying with Henke you take in the local scenery by bike; it is truly breathtaking. I also suggest riding in to Amsterdam; which is 20 min one way on bike. The ride is very easy and you past a nice restaurant (T’ Dijkhuis) to stop and relax at going to and from Amsterdam. Our nights after returning from day trip were spent on the outside patio that overlooks the picturesque fields and moat. Our stay was beyond a doubt first class, it was better than staying in a hotel and we hope to return to Holland very soon!! Thanks again, our best to you and your wife and Oli

P.S. Thank you Henk for allowing my son to feed the chickens, he still talks about you, Oli, the chickens and Amsterdam to this day.
