We spent two weeks in Bonnie and Huub's lovely house. It is tastefully decorated and although it is small, it looks spacious and we felt very comfortable. The cute but fully equipped guest house in the garden offered us the best conditions for a relaxed holiday with our teenage daughter, her friend and a few days our adult daughter and her boyfriend. The house was very clean and Bonnie and Huub provided us with a perfect guest information pack with all information about the house and lots of tips for the area. The place Castricum offers a perfect infrastructure for vacation. It was also important to us that the teenagers could do something independently. The train station, from which you can reach Alkmaar, Amsterdam, Haarlem in about 30 minutes, is within walking distance. In the village there are not only all shops for daily needs, but also small fashion, second-hand or lifestyle shops as well as ice cream and restaurants. The most beautiful thing for us was the directly adjacent "Duinreservaat", a nature reserve through which you can reach the beach in about 15 minutes by bike and endless bike rides along the coast. Our greatest discovery in Amsterdam was the NDSM wharf in Amsterdam, an art district with street art and cafes. We were in trusting contact with our exchange partners during and after the holiday. When we came back our house was in tip top condition and our neighbors were also happy to meet Bonnie, Huub and Kees. Thank you for everything! Sonja & Volkmar, Paula & Lina, Franziska & Raphael
