House, with great views over water and farmland, 10 min to Amsterdam

Lia and George are the best host and their place is really nice. Super clean and very close to the city, we enjoyed our time staying there!

a perfect place, we we would like to live there

The hosts were very communicative and friendly and provided a lot of information about the area. The property was very clean and peaceful with a wonderful location close to Amsterdam. The bus station was a short walk away, which made navigating very easy.

The quiet location was perfect, lovely views but also a very quick bus ride from the city. The hosts were also lovely.

Such a wonderful location. A 10 minute walk to the bus stop for a short trip to Amsterdam. Edam is also nearby. Lovely and helpful hosts.

We had a really beautiful and relaxing stay. Lia and George are very warm and welcoming hosts. The location is right next to a small stream and the view on the local horses, ducks and sheep was a nice extra!

Gorgeous property, very clean and comfortable. Being able to borrow the bikes at no extra cost was wonderful.It was extremely hot when we arrived and the next day so we very much appreciated the air conditioning.Having a car would be better than on foot as we were, but the bus to the city wasn’t too difficult. Wonderful hosts, attentive and caring yet allowed us privacy.I would definitely stay here again if we were back to Amsterdam.May I recommend a visit to Utrecht, as I absolutely loved it. I also thoroughly enjoyed the lighthouse at Marken. I cycled there but my teenage daughter declined the offer, it was a tough ride but I am very glad I went. Absolutely gorgeous.Thank you George and Lia :)

Fantastic hosts, a true hidden Gem. We felt so lucky to find this place, please don’t tell everybody. Getting to Amsterdam on transit is a cake walk, we took the bus no parking issues. We will be back to Amsterdam and this will be our number 1 choice

We stayed for almost two weeks and found this to be an ideal spot. The hosts were extremely helpful and extremely kind. The cottage is a beautiful little home on the canal. What a restful spot. Another great thing is the ready access to everywhere else. Within half an hour we coulb be in Central Amsterdam. When we got tired of the bustle, we were only half an hour away from peace and calm.

Strongly recommend for North Holland. Friendly owner, a great view from the sofas, safe parking lot and all what you need for a nice holiday. Easy with the bus to Amsterdam, nice natural surrounding, perfect bicycle tours and great small villages easy to reach. Thank you for the great visit.

The property was exactly as described. A great location to stay, with easy access to Amsterdam. Bikes were great too.Lia & George are gracious and lovely hosts.

Thanks for allowing us to stay in your unit. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The view outside overlooking the canal was very relaxing and enjoyable.

The property is absolutely gorgeous, there is a separate kitchenette/sitting room with a STUNNING picture window and views of the water and farm and the animals. We especially enjoyed our daily visits from the swans and ducks. George and Lia were amazing hosts and so helpful! We would love to come back soon! The location is idyllic and close to the city.

What a lovely gem we discovered!! It was quiet, peaceful, and relaxing to come back to each day as we explored Amsterdam and the surrounding area. House was very cozy and comfortable with beautiful views of the local canal and farmland, so serene to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee taking it all in. The hosts were absolutely amazing, respecting our space but warm and friendly and willing to go out of their way to help us find bus routes to places we might like to visit and offer suggestions too, which were great. We hope to return again sometime to experience the region in a different season and this is top on our list as a home away from home base. My deepest thanks and gratitude to them for making our stay so lovely.

Lovely property in a quiet neighborhood just outside the city. Walking distance to bus, wonderful hosts!

We found this place to be a great location. Easy access to the city via bus. A great little grocery store close by. Our hosts were very helpful and provided information based on our interests. We explored north of Holland on the two bikes that were available to us. Holland is beautiful place to explore. We would definitely recommend this place to stay. The house is very spacious with a beautiful kitchen and sitting room facing the water. It is located in a very quiet area.

Lovely, little place outside Amsterdam. Leia was a wonderful host, very helpful, even walked with us down to local market and helped us shop! Walked with us to show us where local restaurants and shops were.

Lisa was very kind and helpful, the house nice and cozy:)

Very nice apartment, with everything you need and more. We had a canu and bicycles at our disposal, which we enjoyed very much. George and Lia were always very kind and willing to help.

Everything about this cottage is wonderful. You are just a short bus ride to Amsterdam (nothing compares with the ease of the Dutch transit system), yet you are right on a canal with a gorgeous view of farmland and a long, long view to the horizon. The town itself, Broek in Waterland, is one of the sweetest in all of Holland and has two excellent restaurants. The owners of the property, George and Lia, live in the house next door and are two of the nicest people you will meet. We really can’t say enough about how wonderful this place is.

This was a wonderful stay. Lia and George were great hosts and very helpful. The area was peaceful and a nice reprieve from the city. My favorite part was sitting on the deck and watching the sheep and geese. The deck sits right on top of the canal, it’s private, so the sounds of the water and the wild life made it that much more serene. Using public transportation, it’s an easy ride to Amsterdam, the airport, and other parts of Holland. I visited Haarlem, The Hague, Delft, and Rotterdam in my time. I also went to the beach a couple times when the weather was nice. Lia and George were wondering and welcoming. I arrived at a great time and got the chance to meet the baby sheep and watch the sheep getting sheered. It was an incredible and unforgettable adventure.
