Ferienhaus Werf IJlst Sin­nehúskes in Friesland, IJlst / NL – Netherlands

Holiday home Werf IJlst Sin­nehúskes

The Sin­nehúskes are exclusive waterside lodges, each with their own boat at the back of the house. They are located on the site of a former shi­pyard on the out­skirts of the his­toric little town IJlst. Inside plea­santly simple and modern design pro­vides a stylish and relaxed atmo­sphere. Outside the terrace is a perfect place for day­d­re­aming at the waterside. The houses are spread over two floors with the living area on the ground floor and the sleeping area and bathroom under the roof.

The wooden houses are energy neutral by virtue of solar panels as well as a geo­thermal heat pump. Even the boats are solar charged. You can the­r­efore explore the Frisian lakes and canals in an envi­ron­men­tally fri­endly way and in virtual silence. And if you like, you can take the boat to get your fresh breakfast rolls in the morning!

Wir hatten kein Hausboot sondern ein Haus und ein Boot. Einfach Zen!

Balli sagt:

Wir hatten wun­derbare, ent­spannte Pfingsten 2017 in Haus 3. Eine per­fekte Kom­bi­nation ist das mit dem Haus und dem Boot!
Da das Wetter mit­ge­spielt hat, sind wir nahezu 100% auf dem Wasser gewesen und haben so die schöne Land­schaft geruhsam an uns vor­bei­ziehen lassen.
Die Häuser sind toll aus­ge­stattet und uns hat es an nichts gefehlt.
Defi­nitiv ein Ort zum Wie­der­kommen!

Claudia, Bielefeld sagt:

Wun­der­schöne Feri­en­häuser in ein­ma­liger Lage. Sehr zu emp­fehlen!

Romeiser sagt:

Tolle Lage direkt am Wasser, schöne Woh­nungen, in denen alles zuein­ander passt, selbst die Koch­töpfe zu den Müll­eimern und “Abtropf­matten” fürs Geschirr. Die Sin­nehúskes können wir für lange Wochen­enden wärmstens wei­ter­emp­fehlen.

Für Kinder unbe­dingt Schwimm­westen ein­packen. Die Ter­rasse grenzt direkt an den Kanal.

Wir hatten kein son­niges Wetter und dennoch sehr viel Spaß beim Schippern mit dem eigenen Elek­troboot.

Kerstin, 45 sagt:

Diese schicken Häuser sind direkt an einer kleinen Werft mitten in den Nie­der­landen gebaut. Die Häuser sind kom­plett aus Holz. Die Häuser sind innen mit modernsten Designs aus­ge­stattet. Wer abends bei einem Gläschen Wein auf der Ter­rasse sitzen und träumen will, ist hier genau richtig …
