Old Rustic Beach House that where build for a large family. It is situated within walking distance to the village in the extension of De Kelders. This large house where build for a family of 6 and I run spare bedrooms as a B&B for a hobby.
Retired and running my little B&B as a hobby and to meet nice people from all over the world. Nice to talk about countries I have been to and meet the people again from that countries. I love to assist in your tour planning and give some advise free. Unfortunately I am not a bottle of wine and cannot pleases everyone. But will give you a welcome drink on the house.
Residential neighborhood where most locals stay that live permanent here. Within walking distance to main town and beach. Little general shop and 2 Restaurants within walking distance within 8 minutes. Walk to the main town center 30 minute.
