Holiday home by the Wadden Sea

Step into a beautifully restored 1820s "Fiskershuske" in Paesens, a cozy yet luxurious retreat blending history with modern comfort. Nestled by the Wadden Sea dyke, the home offers stunning views and a peaceful garden for relaxation. Thoughtful touches include air conditioning, insect screens, and a decorative fireplace, while sustainable features like solar panels, LED lighting, and an electric car charging post make it eco-friendly. Nature lovers will enjoy mudflat walking, birdwatching, and exploring nearby Lauwersmeer National Park, while culture seekers can visit the open-air museum It Fiskershúske or the seal sanctuary in Pieterburen. Ferry ports provide easy access to Ameland and Schiermonnikoog for unforgettable island trips. For dining, enjoy regional specialties at Het Raadsel van de Wadden, fresh local produce from nearby markets, or home-cooked meals in the modern kitchen. Don’t miss smoked eel from local smokehouses—combining comfort, history, and authentic Friesland flavors for an unforgettable stay.

We had a lovely stay in Paesens, The house was clean and spacious, accommodating our family of six comfortably, The beds were cozy, and the underfloor heating was a nice luxury during our winter visit, While the area is quite tranquil, we appreciated the convenience of nearby dining options like 't Hoekje, just a short drive away, Overall, it was a practical choice for our holiday, and we'd consider returning

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit

Das kleine Fischerhaus ist mit viel Liebe eingerichtet, so dass man sich wirklich sehr wohl fühlen kann. Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und gastfreundlich. Wir als Familie konnten uns sehr gut erholen.

Prachtig ingericht en zeer net huisje met tuin en voldoende privacy, Geweldige locatie als uitvalsbasis met de zee op ongeveer 100 m afstand, Rust, ruimte en schone lucht, Zeer enthousiaste host die alles deed om het de gasten naar de zin te maken, Fietsenverhuur om de hoek, Wadloopmogelijkheden in het dorp en je bent snel op de Waddeneilanden, Verder liggen Kollum en Dokkum dichtbij - leuke stadjes voor cultuur of shoppen, Dit totaalpakket maakte het voor ons een geweldige locatie

Geschmackvoll modernisiertes und ausgestattetes Fischerhaus. Moderne Küche und Badezimmer. Schlafzimmer gerade groß genug, gute Matratzen. Mehr als genug Platz für 6 Erwachsene. Alles war makellos. Reibungsloser und hilfsbereiter Empfang durch Gastgeberin Lineke. Hinter dem Haus befindet sich ein schöner Garten mit Gartenmöbeln. Leider haben wir es nicht genutzt (zu viel Wind und nicht sonnig genug). Ein geräumiger Parkplatz für 1 Auto ist ebenfalls vorhanden. Aber in der Straße 20 m weiter gibt es viel Platz in diesem ruhigen Dorf. Eine ausgezeichnete Erfahrung.
