Church conversion for a unique stay and experience: 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms

Be our guest at ‘Indekerk’ a truly unique church conversion. The whole church is yours during your stay, no other guests. Make your booking for 1-10 people and experience how this reformed church was transformed into a beautiful, peaceful, luxury home. Enjoy with your family or friends the original details like the thousands stained glass windows. Each of the five bedrooms has it's own en-suite bathroom.

In 1913 this reformed church was build for the village. In it's glory days it welcomed 700 churchgoers every Sunday. After the year 2000 less and less people visited the church and in 2009 it was decided to merge the 2 churches in the village together. Therefore this church was no longer in use and a new purpose for it was possible. After being for sale for 5 years the current owner bought the old church and began transforming it into a luxury holiday house. Most important in the plans was to preserve the look and feel of the church and restore original details where possible.

The result is a home where you immediately feel at home, yet still feel and see in every way this was a church that has been such an important place for so many people for almost a hundred years.

When you decide to be our guests in the church, you will have the whole church to yourself, there will be no other guests. This means that if you book the church just for 2 persons you will still have the whole church for the 2 of you. Good to know, the church is no hotel and so there is no restaurant in the church, you provide your own meals and breakfast.

The different spaces in the church:
Living room with lounge area with gas fire place, dining table, bar.

Open plan kitchen with fridge, freezer, 2 dishwashers, 2 ovens, quooker, 6 gas hobs, warming drawer, coffee machine.

Bedroom 1 (bridal suite with internal balcony in the top of the church where the old organ was) Double bed (180x200) with ensuite bathroom with shower and jacuzzi

Bedroom 2 (in the old consistory) Double bed (180x200) with ensuite bathroom with shower and sauna

Bedroom 3 with 2 single beds that can be put together to create a double bed. Ensuite bathroom with shower

Bedroom 4 with 2 single beds that can be put together to create a double bed. Ensuite bathroom with shower

Bedroom 5 with 2 single beds that can be put together to create a double bed. Ensuite bathroom with shower

Upstairs there is a conference / training room for a maximum of 16 people whiteboard and TV for presentations.

Outside garden area has a dining table and a lounge area. Parking is free in front of the church or at the parking bays.

The cleaning cost include made up beds on arrival, two towels per guests, Rituals shower products, kitchen towels and dishwasher tabs.

Coffee machines are filter type with coffee beans. Coffee beans, filters, sugar and milk are provided as well as different kinds of tea.

Liefdevolle omgeving
Door de ijver, de moed en het respect bij de aanpassingen van het kerkgebouw is een omgeving ontstaan die schoonheid en ruimte ademt en de liefdevolle hand van de eigenaar laat voelen. Dit zorgt voor een plek die rust geeft, want voorzien van alle luxe en mogelijkheden.

Friesland op zijn best!!
Wij hebben een weekend verbleven in de kerk in Rinsumageest en het was in één woord geweldig. Het ontvangst was hartelijk en alles werd duidelijk uitgelegd. Bij eventuele problemen konden we altijd contact opnemen met de eigenaar. Dat was gelukkig helemaal niet nodig. Alles is in de kerk aanwezig om een onvergetelijk verblijf te garanderen. Alles is schoon, heel en van prima kwaliteit. De bank is zo fijn, die is om mee naar huis te nemen! En de akoestiek is natuurlijk niet te overtreffen. We hebben een onvergetelijk weekend gehad en komen zeker terug.

Heerlijk verblijf, op en top luxe!
Deze bijzondere locatie doet zijn naam eer aan! De Kerk is met liefde gerenoveerd en dat zie je in alles terug; van de ontelbaar prachtige authentieke elementen tot een smaakvol en passend interieur. De vertrekken zijn van alle gemakken voorzien. (hobby)koks kunnen hun hart ophalen aan de zeer goed uitgeruste keuken en de vele (zit)hoeken bieden veel mogelijkheden voor grote groepen om zich te vermaken en/of terug te trekken. Kortom, deze woning is een echte aanrader!

Einzigartiger Ort
Dieses „Ferienhaus“ ist eine Klasse für sich - Ferienvilla trifft es eher! Ein, bis ins kleinste Detail, durchdachter Ort: spirituell, erholsam, inspirierend, still, herzlich - nur einige der Worte, die unserer Familie zu diesem Wochenende in der alten Kirche einfallen. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen!!!

Holy Moly Mooi
Wij hebben met de vriendinnen genoten dit weekend van deze mooie verbouwde kerk. Heel mooi en alles voelt als een luxe verblijf. Waren onder de indruk van de keuken, de bar en de fijne badkamers (met sauna). Je ziet dat de eigenaar veel moeite heeft gedaan in de inrichting om het de gasten zorgeloos en naar de zin te maken. Jeroen is ook gewoon heel aardig. Wij komen heel graag nog een keer terug!
