The Van Senden Farm is located in the historic village of Rysum in Krummhörn, near Greetsiel and the East Frisian North Sea coast. The renovated historic farmstead combines the unique character of an East Frisian farm with modern vacation apartments and plenty of space surrounded by nature.

Depending on their size, the 15 vacation apartments are suitable for couples, families with children, as well as families and friends travelling together. Modern duplex apartments, terraces, high-quality amenities, and spacious outdoor areas provide the perfect setting for a relaxing North Sea vacation.

The farmstead is particularly appealing to guests who wish to travel together: Several vacation apartments are located directly within the same courtyard complex. This allows families or friends to spend their vacation together while still enjoying the privacy of their own vacation apartment.

Rysum itself, with its historic houses, church, and the famous Rysum Mill, is one of East Frisia’s most characteristic pile-dwelling villages. Greetsiel, the Pilsum Lighthouse, Emden, and the North Sea dike are all easily accessible. The area around Krummhörn is also ideal for bike rides and excursions along the East Frisian North Sea coast.

The Van Senden farm is therefore ideal for guests who want to combine historic East Frisia, peace and quiet, and plenty of greenery with proximity to Greetsiel and the North Sea.
