We loved the house of Marieke en Jaap. It is very comfortable, has a nice garden and terrace in front of fields with cows (and sometimes deer and storks). The house is very nicely furbished, English style. We could use their bikes and enjoyed our bike rides through the National Park to the beautiful beaches. The house is ideally suited if you want to visit cities like Haarlem and Amsterdam.

Marieka and Jaap's house is a spacious, full of light, confortable and very quiet house in a nice and green neighborood. Communication was nice and easy. French language has no secret for Jaap ! The location could not be better since the ocean is easily accessible, either by driving or even better, by riding a bike through the wild dune park that starts just behind the house. In addition, visits to Amsterdam with its amazing museums and concert gebouw, is very easy owing to a park and ride west of Amsterdam (25 mn drive). Visiting the beautiful towns of Haarlem (Tylers museum), Leyden (botanical garden, great ethnological museum), or going to Tessel islands are all very convenient and enjoyable. We are very happy with this exchange and recommand it highly !

This gorgeous house with the wonderful view and amazing bicycle paths through the dunes in order to reach the sea, just very very satisfied! The weather helped us and the available bicycles too! I hope to come back soon!

The location was ideal for the discovery of this country: we enjoyed the wild beaches, the beautiful nature park and Haarlem beautiful and typical city We particularly enjoyed the quiet location of the house with a beautiful bucolic view of the fields (cows and horses). Mr. and Mrs. OZINGA were welcoming and had prepared all the information and conditions for the success of our exchange. We highly recommend this exchange ..

There was a one direction exchange, so I did not go to their house!

Maison vraiment très agréable et chaleureuse dans un beau quartier calme. Nous avons passé un merveilleux moment de vacances en famille. Les habitants de la région que nous avons rencontré était toujours bienveillants et prêts à nous aider.

We lived three unforgettable weeks in to Santpoort in a family house: seen on fields, hinds in the evening and the tranquillity. Our host Jaap and Marieke found of very attractive bike to our daughters. Santpoort is nice a city with all that it is necessary to spent beautiful holidays: in addition the beach and the forest nearby, easily accessible by bicycle or by car. Thank you again for this exchange!
