Your stay in a B&B the Netherlands
Choosing a B&B the Netherlands opens the door to a unique adventure. Visit Amsterdam's canals and cobbled streets, experience 21st-century modernity in Rotterdam, cycle like a Dutchman through one of the flatland reserves and admire kaleidoscopics of tulips. Holland's B&Bs invite you to explore the low country at your leisure.
Discover unique destinations representing the heart and soul of the Netherlands, where nature and history come together in a fascinating embrace. The enchanting Keukenhof spring garden is a feast for the eyes, where millions of flowers bloom in an explosion of colour. Suppose you want to discover the charm of windmills. In that case, Kinderdijk is the place to start; with its impressive nineteen well-preserved windmills, it's no wonder it is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Zaanse Schans also offers an authentic experience, a village within easy reach of Amsterdam that will transport you back in time so you'll feel like you're living in a scene from the grand masters.
Staying in a allows you to experience this beautiful European capital at its best. Visit the magnificent Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh museums, which are full of national treasures. Explore authentic neighbourhoods such as the Jordaan and the Floating Flower Market, and take a bike ride along the famous working canals to visit the Anne Frank House. Return to your B&B Netherlands for a feeling of home after a day full of discovery.
There is so much to see and do in Holland; it's not only Amsterdam! Visit historical cities such as Utrecht, which has even more canals to explore. Or modern Rotterdam for some shopping and culture. Book accommodation in The Hague (Den Haag in Dutch), and you will have the opportunity to visit the seat of the Dutch government and the royal residence, as well as many beautiful museums. From here, you can easily get to the sea and stroll along Scheveningen Beach, which has seaside attractions and a giant Ferris wheel. Or discover fascinating hidden gems like Giethoorn, the car-free city where you can enjoy a boat ride in a fairy-tale atmosphere.
More than thirty per cent of this densely populated country lies below sea level, which is why it is known as the lowlands. Throughout history, the battle against the sea has played an important role. The 'works for the Delta' (Deltawerken), the majestic dam, is a series of projects in the north of the country to protect the land from the sea. You can also visit a museum about it in Zeeland near Middelburg. It's a feat of engineering like no other. Beyond the magnificent coastline, there are countless other watery ways to explore the country: rivers, lakes and canals.
The Netherlands is one of the most bike-friendly countries in the world. Some say there are more bikes than people! What better way to explore the country than on two wheels? Plan your own bike tour of the Netherlands by booking the best B&Bs along the way, for example in the beautiful Bollenstreek (literally the bulb district) in spring. Experience the freedom of cycling through flat landscapes with the best biking infrastructure in the world. Discover new places, local culture and the joy of adventure. Combining bicycle and B&B is perfect for interacting with locals, creating an atmosphere of authenticity and connection.
