Im Sommer könnte es innen recht warm werden, aber wir waren im Mai hier und nachts hat man die Wärme gut rausbekommen. Für die kalte Jahreszeit ist die Heizung definitiv kräftig genug.Das Hausboot ist geräumig und gemütlich, es ist alles drin, was man braucht, wir konnten kochen und waschen, die Anbindung per Auto und Bahn ist sehr gut, es gibt Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Spielplätze und Fahrradverleih vor Ort, und tolle Restaurants in näherer Umgebung. Wir können uns vorstellen, es definitiv erneut zu buchen. ##### Gustke This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Büxler Aug 25, 2024 #### Super entspannter Aufenthalt.

Zum Strand der Nordsee sind es 15 Minuten ... Uitgeest und Umgebung sind wirklich sehr schön. Zum Strand der Nordsee sind es 15 Minuten mit dem PKW. Zum Baden kann man aber auch an den angrenzenden See. Ein Muß ist die Anmietung eines Motorbootes, um durch die schöne Landschaft zu fahren, zu ankern und zu baden. Bei Essen und Trinken haben wir unterschiedliche Lokale kennengelernt. Bei „ Lekker aan de Haven“ stimmte Preis und Leistung. Radfahrer sind ebenfalls gut aufgehoben. Es eignet sich auch sehr gut für Familien, es gibt dort Prima Möglichkeiten. ##### Göttlich ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katja K.

Die Korrespondenz mit Fewo-direkt war gut. Zur Beförderung der privaten Sachen vom Pkw zum Mietobjekt sollten mehr Handwagen zur Verfügung stehen. ##### Katja K.
