Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
From our house it is only a short walk to the centre of Steenwijk with its cosy restaurant and nice shops.
De Weerribben/Wieden is a very beautiful nature reserve, you can walk through. Or rent a bike, a boat or a Canoe. And take a break in the famous village Giethoorn.
You can also take a walk in the ancient wood "Heerlijkheid de Eese", like Willem Alexander en Maxima often do.
Visit Zwolle, Kampen, the Wadden isles, or Leeuwarden, cultural capital 2018.In Leeuwarden is at this moment an exhibition about Rembrandt & Saskia; love in the golden age. Even Amsterdam is not that far away.
Steenwijk has a cinema, a filmhouse, and a theatre. It has a subtropical swimmingpool, and in winters you can skate on the icerink in the middle of the centre, or, if you are lucky, on natural ice.
