Cottage rentals near Borkum

"De Gulle pracht" Holiday home, Friesland

Our cozy vacation cottage was originally an old stable that we (Caroline and Jan) converted together, with lots of love and respect for the old details and materials, into this "Gulle Pracht." Through a private driveway with parking, you reach the terrace with the spacious garden, a lawn surrounded by tall trees, where you can enjoy yourself. Through the two French doors, you step into the bright and cozy living room with its white old beams and a fully equipped open kitchen. There is wireless internet available, TV and DVD. Because of the ceiling in the living room that has been removed, beautiful light falls in from the skylights and you have a view of the roof structure with the old round hoods. The beds are located on top of the two lofts. The comfortable double bed is accessed by an open staircase. In the other loft, there is a 160-cm-wide mattress on the floor. This bed is only accessible by flexible guests via a ladder. It is not suitable for small children because of the danger of falling, but older children find it exciting to sleep there. Please note, the two lofts share the same large open space. Under the old beams, you can sleep peacefully, where only the sound of rustling trees, whistling birds or your deliciously snoring bedmate will be heard. The room is heated by central heating, but also only the wood-fired stove can heat the cottage comfortably. We will provide you with some wood to start a cozy fire. If you wish, you can buy additional bags from us. Through an old stable door in the living room, you enter the bathroom, which has a beamed ceiling and underfloor heating. The bathroom has a good shower, double sink and toilet. With its inlaid mosaics and all kinds of funny and old details, this space is also a feast for the eyes. There are possibly two (old but good) bicycles available to ride to Harlingen. We, ourselves, live in the farmhouse which is in the same yard. We are available for help, information and advice for fun trips in our beautiful Friesland. Your cottage and our farmhouse are separated by our garden and the big old barn, so we both have our own space and privacy. If the door to Caroline's pottery studio is open, you are always welcome to take a look around. Kimswerd, located on the Eleven Cities Route, is a small, quiet, and beautiful village where our Frisian hero “de Grutte Pier” was born and lived. He still watches over us, in petrified form, at the beginning of our little street, next to the centuries-old Church, which is very much worth visiting as well. You can do your shopping in Harlingen, the supermarket is a fifteen minute bike ride away. The old port of Harlingen is 10 km from our cottage. Kimswerd is located just across the Afsluitdijk. From there, follow the signs N31 Harlingen/ Leeuwarden/Zurich and take the first exit at Kimswerd, 1st right at the traffic circle, 1st right again at the next traffic circle, straight ahead at the intersection, across the bridge and immediately take the first left (Jan Timmerstraat). At the beginning of this street, next to the church, stands the statue of the Grutte Pier. We live in the farmhouse behind the church, Jan Timmerstraat 6, first wide gravel path on the right.
