Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Waadhoeke

De Oude Smederij

Enjoy and relax in the Frisian countryside? This is possible with us in De Oude Smederij, which was formerly a forge but has been completely renovated into a comfortable vacation home. The Oude Smederij is located in an agricultural area on the outskirts of the village of Arum (on the Elfsteden route) and is centrally located between Harlingen (on the Wadden Sea with ferry services to Vlieland and Terschelling), Franeker (Planetarium and Frisian Museum), Bolsward (Broerekerk) and Makkum, located on the IJsselmeer with boulevard and beach.

Unplugged dike house - Fireplace and wide mudflat view

Wake up as the light spreads over the salt marshes, with Ameland Lighthouse on the horizon. No alarm clock to rush you. No notifications to start your day. Just silence, the morning light and the smell of coffee. This detached dike house on the Bildtdijk in North Frisia is deliberately free of Wi-Fi and TV. Not because it’s not possible – but because this is the place where you don’t need to. This is where you really slow down. The fire is burning, the wine is open, and outside you can hear only the wind and the birds.

The peaceful East Pûnsmiet Chalet in an orchard

For those who enjoy being surrounded by nature, this peaceful chalet is the ideal place to relax. The chalet is very private and set in an orchard of just over a third of a hectare. (A pûnsmiet is an old Friesian word for a third of a hectare). It is a perfect place for those who want to indulge their creativity in writing or drawing. The beautiful views towards the dyke and into the orchard are unique in this Friesian landscape, where the sunsets are spectacular and ever changing.
