The apartment is located in the beautiful and quiet area of Nieuwendamdijk. It’s a dyke and street with a lot of traditional old wooden houses and makes you feel like living in a “dorp” and it is still very close to the city center. We recommend taking bicycles with you or renting them there. In 10 minutes by bike you can reach the ferry across the IJ to Amsterdam Centraal or with a 10 minutes walk to the metro station. It's also a wonderful starting point for extensive bike tours to Waterland or Markermeer with lovely villages and small towns like Broek and Monnickendam.
The terrace and the garden are great for relaxing after a long day in the city or the countryside. And if you like dogs, you will quickly become friends with Sam, the dear house dog and fantastic goalkeeper ;-)
The place was very cosy and clean and we enjoyed our stay there a lot. We can fully recommend booking with Diane, our wonderful and very helpful host.
