    We were so pleased with the help received when we arrived after travelling through awful weather. The accommodation was perfect for us and the home grown salad leaves and eggs were lovely. We cycled to Hoorn and also to Edam both worth a visit...

    Natur pur... aus dem Bett in den Garten, die Kühe und eine Schwanenfamilie vor der Tür. Die Nähe zur Autobahn und zu umliegenden Dörfern war prima.

The 35m2 meter room has beautiful oak wooden floors, original wooden beams and floorheating. A spacious private bathroom with double sinks, towels, a shower and toilet. The kitchenette with coffee machine and milk foamer, a microwave, kitchen utensils, and fridge for making small meals. Also included: free coffee, tea, oil, salt, and sugar. A seating area with a tv, a table and chairs, books and magazines, suitcase rack and a cupboard. Heavy curtains for a dark room at night. You have a private entrance to your own space, a room, bathroom and private garden with views over the pastures and picnic table and barbecue. Please be aware that you will be staying at a farm, the house has wooden floors and the pavement around the house isn't level everywhere and may not be suitable for the elderly or people who have trouble walking.
We, Marilyn and Michiel, have been living in the Beets for two years with our two boys. Because we have so much space we started to share a room with bathroom with travellers and love being able to share our beautiful sunsets, tranquility of the area and friendliness of the people in Beets.
Beets is a small beautiful village but has lots to offer, it’s own goat cheeseshop, swimmingspot, cafe and lots of bike and walking routes. Within a fifteen minute car ride you have access to lots of restaurants, lakes for swimming and boating, musea, shopping, cheese market, windmills. There is an express bus to Amsterdam running all day and night. By car Amsterdam is just 30 minutes away.
