About this property

Vacation apartment in a historic building on the seawall (Apartment 2)

Our apartment is located in the former residential wing of a historic, fully renovated Gulfhof in a secluded location, right next to the dike. High ceilings, thick beams, large wooden-latticed windows with a stunning view of the East Frisian countryside, and modern furnishings with great attention to detail make this apartment a place where you’ll feel right at home.

The farm (name: Polder72) is situated in the middle of a bird sanctuary and nature reserve. We therefore have no immediate neighbors. The coastal town of Bensersiel lies about one kilometer to the east. The main dike runs right in front of the farm, from where you can look out over the Wadden Sea and the East Frisian islands.
Make yourself comfortable in this apartment, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Ruhig und familienfreundlich

Tolle und saubere Unterkunft für einen Urlaub mit der Familie. Der Gulfhof ist ein modern renovierter historischer Bauernhof mit viel Charme. Er liegt etwas abgelegen, ist dadurch sehr ruhig gelegen und direkt am Deich. Der nächstgelegene Ort ist schnell per Fahrrad oder Auto erreichbar. Der Radweg am Deich liegt auch direkt vor der Tür. Es gibt einen großen Garten und Spielgeräte im Hof. Perfekt für Familien. Und auch die Vermieterin ist super freundlich.
