We thoroughly enjoyed a relaxed Easter week at Erve Look.
The house offered plenty of space for us all and was well equipped. Should the weather keep you indoors, there were lots of games to choose from in the cupboard, pass the pigs has made a revival with our girls! There is also a TV with satellite and DVD player, plenty of options for DVD’s, though not all have English available… good way to practice your Dutch.
Outside in the large garden was a see-saw, swings, trampoline, play fort and numerous small toys. There are also chickens and a couple of sheep and lambs to keep you company while you enjoy the garden area.
Kitchen was well equipped, anybody wishing to cook food in the oven will have to use the combination microwave, which was easy to use and took around the same time to cook on the few occasions we needed it. The central heating worked well and it was nice to arrive to a warm house on a cold morning.
Erve Look is roughly 1 ½ hours drive East from Amsterdam which placed us in a great position to visit Arnhem & Nijmegen (both about 1 hour) and Germany (Osnabruck & Munster both 1 ½ hour drive).
The house is located in beautiful farm and woodland surroundings and we loved seeing the new lambs in the field every morning. The location offered plenty of scope for cycling and walking, some routes were helpfully included in the welcome book.
Henk & Joke were very friendly and answered any questions we had during the week all while still managing to gives us lots of privacy.
Thank you for a wonderful relaxed break.
