“Rustige plek in de natuur, stad en strand toch dichtbij”
The kitchen was tidy, complete with a mixing tap, plenty of cookware (pots, knives, cutlery, bottle opener, gloves, etc.), an oven that broke during my stay, a range hood, a two‑burner induction hob, a large roll of high‑quality kitchen paper, a dispenser with dish soap, a scrub brush and a strainer. The bathroom looked neat, featuring a modern toilet and sink, a contemporary shower with a convenient push‑button adjustable head (instead of a vague dial), a floor that only gets slippery when soap or foam is used, and shower gel and shampoo. A soap dispenser was filled beside the sink. Towels were good quality but large—more like beach towels than practical bath linens. The air‑conditioning worked well. A big fridge with plenty of freezer space, a modern washing machine (unused), a dishwasher with sea‑salt tablets (unused), a reasonable number of power outlets, pleasant and adjustable lighting, outdoor chairs with a table, a few books and games, and a quiet setting (occasionally a plane overhead). However, the bathroom emitted a nasty smell (H₂S?) that was less intense in the afternoon; closing visible openings (e.g., sink drain) did nothing, only strong ventilation and keeping the bathroom door shut helped a little. The odor made it hard to sleep. There was no Wi‑Fi, so a hotspot was needed. No smoke detector. The water was not suitable for drinking (maybe for cooking); bring bottled water. Climbing into the mezzanine bedroom was difficult because the head or shoulders could hit the beams. Only in the bedroom above the bathroom were the light switch and outlet close to the bed. The single‑bed in one mezzanine and the double bed in the other were just a mattress on the wooden floor; they were short for a 1.90 m person and, with a 15 % body fat, the mattress felt too firm for side sleepers, causing painful hips even after switching sides. The stairs to the mezzanines had high steps that were hard to climb and descend. The shower cabin had no door (it was under the trailer). The front door opened and closed heavy (announced just before arrival); it was awkward: you had to push and pull slowly and forcefully because the bottom slid too close to a rubber edge. No kettle was available (you could use the small pot on the induction hob). After turning on the AC with the remote, nothing could be adjusted (even turning it off failed); it stuck at 24 °C, which I liked (though it made the contrast with outside temperature bigger). Bed linens were a kind of bathcloth; I’d prefer smooth linen. A lamp above the table opposite the entrance was awkwardly angled forward; I hit my head on it several times. A car or taxi (or bike, motorcycle) is needed for transport.
