Beautiful property, great location, wonderful hosts

Het Melkhuis is a lovely spot to stay. The house ihas everything you need, is furnished to a very high standard and is very comfortable. The hosts are helpful and friendly, and Katwijk in my opinion the nicest of the villages on the coast in that area. To top it all: you go out the foor, turn right, walk for maybe 50 metres and then there are only the dunes between you and the beach!

schöne Ferienwohnung. Sehr nett eingerichtet. Top Lage. Strand und Innenstadt zu Fuß schnell zu erreichen. Für uns war die Entfernung des Parkplatzes kein Problem. Da Strand, Restaurants und Supermarkt sich in direkter Nähe befanden. Ein bisschen hat uns gefehlt das es keine richtige Möglichkeit gab, die Strandsachen zu trocknen. Das ging nur auf der Straße. Die Treppe zum Schlafzimmer ist nur für mobile Menschen geeignet. Für uns aber kein Problem. Der Kontakt mit den Vermietern war reibungslos und bei Fragen bekamen wir sehr schnelle Antwort.

Das 'Het Melkhuis' ist eine sehr liebevoll, sehr sauber eingerichtete Wohnung von Paul und Jaenette.Die Kontaktaufnahme mit bester Wegbeschreibung, Parkmöglichkeiten und wo sich der Schlüssel aufhält, erfolgte 1 Woche vor antritt der Reise. Fantastisch.In der Küche war alles an Kochutensilien vorhanden (Töpfe,Pfannen,Geschirr,Besteck usw.).Das Bett ist super bequem. Die Wendeltreppe zum Schlafzimmer ist etwas steil,gewöhnt man sich aber schnell dran :-)Die Wohnung liegt super zentral zum Strand 2min, Einkauf u. Gastronomie im Zentrum um die Ecke.Obwohl die Wohnung zentral in einer Einbahnstraße liegt, ist es sehr ruhig und erholsam gewesen. Alle Nachbarn waren sehr freundlich. Vielen lieben Dank für die schöne Zeit bei euch und immer wieder gerne :-)Leslie u. Jennifer

Sehr schönes Häuschen mit allem, was man braucht. Sauberkeit top, zentral gelegen, Strand sowie Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in ein paar Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen. Was man in der Beschreibung nicht sehen kann: das Auto kann man kostenfrei nur 10 Gehminuten entfernt parken. Das war grundsätzlich kein Problem für uns, aber es sollte in der Beschreibung doch Erwähnung findenAufgrund dessen und aufgrund der Wendeltreppe ist das Haus nicht für Menschen mit Bewegungseinschränkungen geeignet.

Ferienwohnungbewertung

Wir fanden die Reise sehr schön. Wohnung lag sehr Zentral Stadtmitte, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Strand konnte sehr schnell erreicht werden. Vermieter war sehr nett zu uns. Allerdings konnte man sein Auto nicht vor der Wohnung parken, sondern nur zum Be-und Entalden, sodass man zum Auto am Sportplatz mindestens 10 -15 min Fußweg einplanen musste. Eventuell auf den Insarat zuvermerken. Mit freundlichen GrüßenMargarete Kaupert
