Lovely lake house in Haarlem near Amsterdam and the seaside

Swimming and relaxing in the hart of the Netherlands

We invite you to our lovely home at the coast and in the centre of Holland and the nortern part of Europe. There is a main house and a tiny house with a connecting door. The main house sleeps two, the tiny house can sleep up to four because of the couchbed.
Because of the open water at the back of our house we find the house not suitable for children that don't know how to swim. There is no fence between the garden and the water.

Haarlem is a charming 'golden age' city with lots of culture and restaurants.
We live near the beach, it will take you 30 minutes by bike or you can take the car and be there in 10 minutes. All interesting cities are within easy reach by train or car. For example: you can get to Amsterdam in 15 minutes by train, Rotterdam in 50 minutes. By train you reach Paris in less than 4 hours, Brussels and Antwerp less than 2 hrs. Germany also close by; Berlin, Cologne.

You can park on the lawn in front of the house.

About the neighborhood

Quote from the Lonely Planet:
"Everybody loves Haarlem, and it’s not hard to see why. This achingly pretty city of cobble-stone streets, historic buildings, grand churches, even grander museums, cosy bars, top-class restaurants, and antique shops is a sure-fire heart-warmer. It’s more than easy to visit as a day trip from Amsterdam, but as a place with so much on offer in such a compact area, you may find yourself turning the tables on the capital and using Haarlem as a base to explore the surrounds."

A website that might give you some more information is http://www.virtualtourist.com/travel/Europe/Netherlands/Provincie_Noord_Holland/Haarlem-461150/TravelGuide-Haarlem.html. 

The Oosterplas and Bloemendaal beach are part of the national park Zuid Kennemerland. To get an impression please refer to this beautiful brochure. http://www.np-zuidkennemerland.nl/documents/documents/ab6ad2.pdf

One of the main touristic destinations in spring is de Keukenhof (http://www.keukenhof.nl/index/en/) where you can see all kind of bulb flowers in bloom. Nice if you visit us in spring!
