On the peaceful island of Texel, this farmhouse puts you in the town of De Cocksdorp. Within a fifteen-minute walk, you’ve got a traditionally Dutch square where cafés spill out onto the pavements, and there are a couple of supermarkets to stock up on groceries. The beach is a six-minute drive away where wild, protected dunes slip away into the sea. A flat island, the best way to get around Texel is by bike, and there’s bicycle storage with this home. Housed in a charming, thatch-roofed farmhouse, you’ve got acres of garden to explore around you. Kids will enjoy the swing set and volleyball net, and grown-ups can indulge in long, lazy lunches on the private terrace. Inside, woodbeams running along the white walls and ceilings give a feeling of old farmhouse style. The living room is a sunny spot, courtesy of conservatory-style windows looking out over the lush garden. The kitchen is particularly spacious, with more than enough room to handle the bustle of family breakfast time.

About Netherlands
The famously laid-back nation of the Netherlands is the perfect place to relax and embrace cutting-edge culture on the same trip. The capital, Amsterdam, is filled with art galleries and world-class museums, from the endless halls of the Rijksmuseum to the Van Gogh Museum.
