This trip was to celebrate our son Jack's 18th birthday and we wanted something special but not too far away for a long weekend so chose Amsterdam. Jack had no idea where we were staying so when we followed Nancy's clear instructions and walked up the pathway to our little house he was truly amazed - he loved it!
My husband & I had the Dutch style cupboard bedroom while Jack and his 14 year old sister had the single beds upstairs but when Jack's snoring got too much Gabrielle snuggled up on the sofa by the wood burner which she found very comfortable (spare quilts/pillows etc in the drawers underneath it).
There were so many lovely touches like fresh flowers on the table to the children's bedtime story scroll complete with feather on the bed - it just felt like home!
We loved the ease of walking to the ferry to get across to the centre of Amsterdam - the trams are regular and a great way of getting about if rushing to the Van Gogh museum like we did but we liked walking the best as you have time to take in all the sights....and there are so many varied ones :)
This was our first time to Amsterdam and we all hope to come back - if only to have a dip in the lovely pool in Nancy & Hans garden!
If you want a special magical feel to your stay then this little house is the place for you.
Lois, John, Jack & Gabrielle
p.s. just have to say we loved the 2 chickens coming over to see us - we have chickens too so felt very at home :)
