    Wonderful houseboat!

    My husband and I stayed on this lovely houseboat for a couple of nights, and it was a perfect experience! It was really close to a working windmill that was great to walk over to. The houseboat was welcoming and accommodating, and the bed was the most comfortable bed we had while traveling in Europe. It was such a unique and fun experience, and we loved every minute of it! Thank you so much to our wonderful hosts!

    A wonderful stay on the houseboatShow original

    We were given a warm welcome by the family. We were then shown the houseboat. It was very cleverly and sensibly furnished with good furniture. Above all, there was a large, good double bed.

    The kitchen was equipped with all the utensils for cooking, etc. I was able to make myself a good filter coffee every morning, which was included. A large fridge and a large dishwasher made the whole thing complete. Not to forget, the delicious little snacks and some good drinks that were already there were also available to consume. Everything tasted wonderful. The electric trash can was also a great thing.

    The outdoor area with seating was a must every day. You felt like your own owner of a houseboat. We were also given two bicycles, which we used almost every day. Overall, it was a wonderful stay. Many thanks again to the Uffink family. We can only warmly recommend the houseboat. Best wishes from Claudia and Günther.
