Our new Frisian home is located in the northernmost suburbs of Osteel on a quiet side street. Nearby are fields and meadows, where you have direct access to the extensive network of bike paths leading to Greetsiel and Norden/Norddeich. A large, fenced-in garden with patios invites you to relax and soak up the sun from morning until night. The house offers plenty of space for 3–4 people; it is particularly comfortable and lovingly furnished. You can enjoy wonderful excursions in the lush green surroundings of East Frisia. The port of Norddeich—from which you can reach the islands—as well as the swimming beach and the water adventure pool are just 8 km from the house. Shops are easily accessible!
Excursions: A visit to the romantic fishing village of Greetsiel is an absolute must. Nearby is the Krummhörn landmark, the yellow-and-red-striped lighthouse at Pilsum. You’ve been able to get married here for quite some time now, as the Pewsum Town Hall has set up a registry office here. The lighthouse became famous thanks to the “Othon” films. The port of Emden is also worth a visit. Emden not only has a beautiful harbor but also charming shopping streets, the Ottoa, and the Nannen Museum.
Also to the north, with its new wave pool and seal breeding station, Aurich—with its castle, market hall, and beautiful city center—is worth a visit. Or visit the East Frisian islands of Juist, Borkum, Norderney, and Baltrum. Mudflat tours are also offered on some of the islands. You’ll find more information in the visitor brochure on display.
Shopping: Shops of all kinds and supermarkets from every major retail chain can be found in the neighboring towns of Norden and Marienhafe. Likewise, there are various banks, restaurants, and ice cream parlors. A list of doctors and pharmacies in the municipality of Osteel is available at the house.
