The Boat and Breakfast Maarssen

We worked hard to realize this comfortable bed and breakfast on our own houseboat. The Boat and Breakfast consists of two rooms; one bedroom, and one cozy and spacious living room. If you are passing through by boat, it is also possible to moor right onto our houseboat! Breakfast is served in the morning, and we are more than happy to tell you about the best locations and activities nearby!

Maarssen on the river Vecht is a beautiful location! The boat is moored next to an old hunting trail, with a rich history. Trading ships used to pass by this region, making it an important trading route in the Netherlands. In the summer, many people sail and drive the river with their boats, hikers walk the many hiking routes, and cyclists enjoy the beautiful surroundings of the Vecht. Please feel free to discover this amazing region by yourself!

Please kindly note that we do not accept pets, as a precaution for future guests who might be allergic. 

In your appartement, you will have your own bathroom with a bathtub, shower, sink, and toilet. Also, the B&B is completely separate from the rest of the houseboat, so you will have all the privacy you need. There are many nice routes for cycling. Luckily, we allow you to rent bikes so you can discover these routes on your own! Besides bicycles, you can also rent a boat (one large boat, and one smaller boat), and canoes.
