We were delighted with our accommodations and would love to stay here again if we are visiting the greater Amsterdam area in the future! Our hosts home is adjacent to the cottage and readily available if needed, but we felt a great sense of privacy. It was quite chilly during our week's stay, so the sauna was the perfect antidote, and the electric fireplace kept things warm and cozy. It was quite handy having a washer and dryer on hand, since we had weeks of travel ahead of us. The village is very picturesque with its operative windmills and interesting, as we learned it was the first industrial area of the Netherlands. You have easy access to the train station for the short ride to Amsterdam, or for that matter, anywhere in Europe. There's a wonderful Indian restaurant just steps away from the cottage and a well-stocked, full-service grocery about 15 minutes walk--don't forget to bring one of the shopping bags your hosts provide for their guests. We highly recommend this beautifully restored, clean and comfortable cottage to travellers who want to have a taste of more rural Netherlands, and at the same time have easy access to Amsterdam and beyond.

Out of all the vacation rentals I’ve stayed at across the world, this was definitely in my top 3. The location is a bit far from central Amsterdam, but it is very easy to take the train to Amsterdam Centraal and get there in 20 minutes. The guesthouse itself was absolutely grand. Everything was spotless, the kitchen had every amenity I could think of needing, the bed was very comfortable, ample natural sunlight but also private, and of course...the Finnish Sauna. It's also a 5-minute walk to a large grocery store, and the neighborhood is very safe and aesthetically beautiful. Fred and Kelly are also wonderful hosts. They were there to greet me in person and available to see me off when I left. They really paid attention to the details and made my stay memorable. I hope to stay at their lovely guesthouse again if I'm ever back in Amsterdam, but I couldn't recommend their place more to anyone who is visiting. Thank you both!

Lovely and quiet cottage located in the courtyard of a beautiful Zaans house. Fred & Kelly are very thoughtful and friendly hosts, who we enjoyed chatting with. They gave some handy tips, like, taking the small ferry over the river Zaan. All amenities (bakery, AH supermarket, restaurants, free parking) are close by. The Zaanse Schans is at easy walking distance. Comfy beds, clean cottage, nice sauna. Would definitely stay again at this historic Vrbo cottage.

Wonderful little "house" for us to stay in. Very quiet and safe. Has all the ammenities you require PLUS more! Our host had fresh roses with chocolate to greet us when we entered. The washing machine was a huge blessing! The yard was beautiful - exactly as the the pictures show. The bed was very comfortable and the Jacuuzi glorious after walking. Our hosts were pleasant and accommodating. There is a bus stop close by as well as the train station which is about a 10 minute walk. You cannot lose staying at this wonderful apartment!

We loved our stay here. The guesthouse was very clean and shows exactly as the pictures online. Fred and Kelli are great hosts—lots of communication but also don’t bother you. 8 min from the train, number of restaurants within 5-10 walk (try Kathmandu) as well as two grocery stores. We enjoyed our week, travelling into Amsterdam (20 min by train) as well as other nearby towns. Very convenient. We will definitely stay here again on our future trips to Amsterdam

Quaint Cottage

Wonderful trip to Amsterdam and areas. We had a car for 4 days of 10. Parking was not a problem. We parked a very short block away each day. This cottage is cozy and very charming. We cooked breakfast daily and ate in for dinner often. All was easy. Our hosts were very attentive and caring. The cottage is a 10 minute walk to the train station and about 15 minute walk to Zaan Schans. I do not hesitate in recommending this cottage to future travelers. Thank you to Fred and Kelly. Patricia
