Wake up at the edge of the dunes

Welcome

Three rooms, one 1930s house

In 2019 we bought this house at the edge of the dunes. It needed some love, so over the following years we restored it ourselves, room by room. Now we’d love to share it with you.

No hotel, no reception desk: just a house where you feel at home, with two people who’d love to show you the best spots on the coast.

Guest book

What guests write

We woke up to birdsong and walked straight into the dunes after breakfast. That breakfast alone is worth the trip. Those eggs!

Marloes · Utrecht · May 2026

Zeewind was perfect with our two kids. Ruben had the bikes ready for us, child seat and all. What a lovely place.

Jeroen · Zwolle · August 2026

Such a calm, beautifully restored house. Sanne’s tip for the walk through the dunes to the beach was spot on.

Surroundings

Dunes, beach and so much sky

Step out of the front door and you’re in the dunes. By bike you’ll reach the sea in ten minutes, and if you want to go further, Egmond, Bergen and Alkmaar are just around the corner.
