Your view
B&B and apartment in the heart of Stavoren, Friesland. "Sleeping by the IJssellake" is very suitable for leisure and holiday stays. There are two apartments in total, both suited for 2-4 people. They are situated on the first floor of a typically old Dutch Frisian Dike house with stunning views over the IJssellake (the former Zuydersea, these days fresh water!). Enjoy a beautiful sunset and watch ships sail by from your own living room and idyllic roof terrace. The apartment is located in the quite and picturesque centre of Stavoren, one of the famous Frisian 11-cities. Ever since 950 BC Stavoren received city-rights, however these days it's a small village full of character incl. 5 harbours, little restaurants and bars, and off course the famous statue " the female of Stavoren".
The sandy beach where you can swim, surf and sunbath is only at a 2 min. walking distance from the apartment.
