1. 
   The houseboat has a hallway entrance, kitchen, bathroom with shower and toilet and washing machine, living room with table and chairs, couch, TV. Two Separate bedrooms both with doublebed. Second separate toilet. All brand-new.

We warmly welcome families with children. There is a shared terrace fence in front of the boat, the windows have child locks and cleaning stuff is stored out of reach of children. Furthermore there are lots of toys for the kids to play with.

Note: we consider our boat as child-friendly, but note that you are and always will be responsible for the safety of your kids when staying on a houseboat. Staying on a houseboat simply means that there is always water around you and you have to be careful in every occasion. However this houseboat is a concrete stone box, so inside you don't have to worry at all. Also the entrance to the door is very steady and safe. Hardly any movement aboard too, cause the houseboat is tightly attached to the quai.
