About this property

Cultural by Nature. Rural place in the city.

Our guest house has a double bed downstairs and with a dock on the mezzanine where limited headroom is two more beds. The small kitchen in the guest room is separated from the bathroom by means of swing doors behind which are a spacious rain shower, toilet and sink.
There is a private terrace and trampolines in the garden.
On the dike there is free parking. A good supermarket with restaurant is 100 meters away. The guesthouse is located nationwide but with bus, tram or metro you are within 15 minutes in the center of the canals belt of Amsterdam. From our location it is also nice to cycle to the old villages such as Ransdorp, Durgerdam and Holysloot. There are 4 bicycles available. Day trips to Marken, Volendam, Zaanse schans and Keukenhof are also easily accessible.
That is why we call this place the best of both worlds.

At Home in Holland

We had a lovely, relaxing stay @ Marietta’s retreat in the Noord. The location was ideal for balancing the energy and intensity of the city with the calm and comfort of a semi-“rural” retreat. We took full advantage of the location’s easy access to a wide variety of activities and attractions. Mariette was warm and welcoming, with the best recommendations for Dutch cuisine & sight seeing.

The best stay in Amsterdam!

We stayed for a month and had the absolute best time. Mariette is an incredible host, so friendly, helpful and kind. This place is truly a hidden gem, with beautiful scenery, wonderful neighbors and a great place to relax. The space had everything we needed and more. We already want to come back!

Nicht zu empfehlen

Sind am selben Tag noch abgereist. Leider kein guter Empfang, meckert über den Hund, obwohl wir drüber gesprochen hatten. Leider nicht sauber genug...für das Geld erwarte ich mehr. Terrasse und Garten sehr herunter gerockt nicheinladend.

Tranquility in the Garden

We loved our stay with Mariette. As a family of four, we had plenty of space and all essentials were provided in Mariettes cozy garden house. Access by transit, bike, or on foot is a breeze. Evenings were so peaceful, with no noise of traffic or night life. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Fijne locatie en op zich leuk huisje

Wij hebben het heel gezellig gehad met de vrienden maar het verblijf liet te wensen over. Het was niet schoon, zout en peper en n vaatdoek ontbraken en er was een kapotte schaar. Ook de kinderbedden zijn te smal voor volwassenen en de trap naar boven is gevaarlijk. Wij komen niet terug

Excellent and adorable little cottage in country with very easy access to anything!

Mariette was a fantastic host and her place is the perfect middle ground between a busy city and a relaxing countryside. It took five minutes to walk to the 37 bus line, which can get you to just about any connecting trend line and to whatever neighborhood you want to go to. It takes less than 30 min to get to Centraal Station if all transit lines up right. There are bikes and everything you need to cook if you want. It really was the perfect day, small caveat being four stars to cleanliness because of the amount of spiderwebs in there for spiders. I think Netherlands may be different than in the states where we try to keep spiders out of the home, but there are a considerable number so beware if you’re afraid of them!
