Beautiful setting in the Waterland countryside. Ineke went above and beyond to meet our needs even before we asked, including giving us a ride to the bus stop on our way out. During our stay she provided us bikes that made it easy to get to the bus stops in Monnickendam and Ilpendam. Great place to stay if you want some peace and quiet in the Dutch farmland while still close enough to visit Amsterdam easily!
De locatie is prachtig en heel rustig en privé. Het is een ruim ruis en van alle gemakken voorzien zodat je er makkelijk langere tijd zou kunnen verblijven. En met dat uitzicht en die omgeving wil je dat ook. Ineke is een geweldige gastvrouw, heel behulpzaam, en je voelt je heel welkom.
L'accueil de Ineke. L'espace dans le gîte avec la vue sur le lac. Le calme. La situation dans la campagne et aux milieux des canaux. Les pistes cyclables qui permettent de rejoindre les différents villages alentours. Amsterdam à 30 minutes en bus.
Die Lage und Aussicht waren einfach nur traumhaft. Den See, Broek und die Skyline von Amsterdam vom Frühstückstisch aus zu sehen, war grandios. Wir wurden von einer Glucke mit ihren Kücken begrüßt! Die Schwesterhennen mit Hahn, (ohne Hahn keine Kücken!) die Katze, Kühe, Schafe, Schwäne, Gänse und Enten vervollständigten das Naturidyll. Es war alles, wie beschrieben, vorhanden. Das Bett war Spitzenklasse. Wir haben viel besser geschlafen als Zuhause. Es ist nicht nur ein Kühlschrank vorhanden, sondern es handelt sich um eine große, freistehende Kühl-GefrierKombi (Gefrierfach hat 3 große Schubladen). Die Elektrogeräte waren alle von guter bis sehr guter Qualität (Waschmaschine wie neu). Das WC ist nicht zusätzlich, sondern vom Waschraum (geräumige Dusche mit Waschbecken) getrennt. Beide Räume haben Fenster zum Lüften und sind neu und modern gestaltet. Bei unserer Ankunft waren Essig, Öl, die wichtigsten Gewürze und Gewürzmischungen, Zucker, Kaffekapseln, lösl. Kaffee, Reis und Nudeln im Schrank. Bolognese, Salatdressing, Ketchup, Pommessosse im Kühlschrank. Eiswürfel waren im Gefrierschrank schon vorbereitet. Obst, Kekse und Rotwein waren ebenfalls da. Fürs Erste waren wir versorgt und konnten uns von der Anreise (10 Std.) erholen. Produkte zur Körperpflege und Reinigungsmittel waren (wie sollte es auch anders sein) reichlich vorhanden. Wir fühlten uns wie im Paradies und wollten überhaupt nicht mehr Abreisen.
Bei "nicht gefallen", fällt mir wirklich nichts ein. Dass es mehr Besteck und Geschirr sein sollte, damit die Spülmachine auch richtig voll bestückt werden kann, haben wir Ineke schon gesagt.
Locatie is schitterend voor een (fiets)vakantie in de waterrijke prachtige streek en dichtbij Amsterdam. Mooi zicht vanuit de living. Heel goed bed. Keuken en benodigdheden ok. Heel vriendelijk onthaal en vlotte communicatie
Niets
Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig, mit einem schönen Blick über den See nach Amsterdam. Man ist aber, z.Bsp. mit dem Fahrrad, schnell in den nächsten Dörfern und den nächsten Sehenswürdigkeiten. Auch die Fahrt mit den öffentlichen Verkehsmitteln ist ganz unkompliziert möglich. Es wurden auch 2 Fahrräder bereitgestellt. Das Haus hat eine sehr gute Größe. Auch das Bett ist mit 2m Länge sehr gut!!!!
Gar nicht gefallen hat uns, dass jeden Morgen ab ca. 4 Uhr der Hahn anfängt zu krähen. Das ist der Erholung, die man im Urlaub genießen will, nicht förderlich. Kleine "Mängel" wären: - die Nutzung des Gartens ist nicht direkt möglich, dazu müsste er etwas besser gepflegt werden - es gibt keinen Handfeger und Kehrblech (falls man mal etwas wegfegen will/muss) Aber die beiden kleinen "Mängel" haben keinerlei Auswirkungen auf den Aufenthalt im Haus, dies sind nur Kleinigkeiten.
Very cosy house with all you need for a comfortable stay. Ideally located to discover the local area. Very quiet surroundings and it was absolutely great waking up in the large bedroom looking out onto the garden. Ineke, the host, was very welcoming and attentive. She also made great suggestions on places to visit and eat out.
The tv and tv internet interface could do with an update but otherwise everything was great!
Don't know where to start from - For Overleek, my suggestion to fellow travellers is to be sure of what you want from your time off - if it is peace, quiet, natural beauty, horses, canals, ducks, swans, long walks, bike rides, be at least 4 kms from the closest city, limited public transport access, then Ineke's place is it. She is welcoming, helpful, and lives next door in a separate house. She got us a fabulous bottle of wine (an Abruzzo) which we finished even before we had met her. And fresh eggs. Lovely! The house is beautiful - not perfectly manicured, but like home, clean and attractive. It is made of raw wood, not tiled. It is over the lake, indeed. While sitting at the patio, you cannot see the lake fully, as the reeds grow high, but a little wiggling or a few meters walk into the field across the road and you have a beautiful view. Ineke has two canoes which she offered to us, and I did indeed sail into the lake. Stunning. It is mostly quiet, with non intrusive and courteous neighbours. The kitchen has everything you could need to make yourself comfortable. The bedroom is large (i do not need much space and it seemed like a palace to me). All fixtures are functional and useful, including the lights. There are hens (yes, the ones who laid our eggs) in the backyard who will come inside to greet you if the door is open. The backyard is overgrown, but that is charming for me, and flowers grow wild and free. Parking is no problem and you slot in right next to Ineke's car; if you have an RV or something much bigger, suggest to talk to her in advance as there is no other parking in front of the house. It's the countryside, and the roads are narrow. One follows garbage segregation and the house has clearly marked bins right outside. A car or a bike is useful to have, else, unless you are a big walker will be tough to get to store.
The living room is not a lounging place but a true sitting area. If there are children who want to lounge, not the place for them. The one thing I recommend you carry is a shower cap. Unfortunately, I couldn't find one in the market close by. The shower cubicle has only one head rain shower up top. I had to do a little jig each time I showered to ensure that my hair doesn't get wet but you cannot avoid it in totality. Nothing that a good old cap will not take care of. Or Ineke, if you could, maybe add a hand shower if the area allows it.
We had a truly relaxing and wonderful weekend at Over Leak. The house was absolutely perfect – spotless, modern, and extremely comfortable. It was fully equipped with everything we needed for a memorable holiday. The stunning views, the beautiful backyard with chickens and fresh tomatoes, all surrounded by nature, made it an ideal getaway. Our host, Ineke, was exceptional. She was warm, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. Her kindness and attentiveness made a real difference. The location is perfect for anyone seeking peace and tranquility, with plenty of opportunities for cycling, walking, or canoeing. It's a paradise for nature lovers. We will definitely return without hesitation and highly recommend this wonderful place to anyone looking for a serene retreat.
