Grou and surroundings
Our safari lodge is located on the island and water park Yn'e Lijte. This island is connected to Grou by one bridge and a ferry. Grou is a lively and cozy water sports village, in the middle of Friesland.

The island of Yn'e Lijte is located in the wetland area of the Alde Feanen National Park. This area invites you to go fishing or to go on the water with your own boat or a rented boat (with our discount voucher if necessary!).

In the summer season you can also cycle a beautiful '8 van Grou' cycle route - or the ferry route . A beautiful trip that takes you through the beautiful nature of Friesland and where you will encounter various ferries and taverns along the way. Highly recommended!

PLEASE NOTE: 

We would like to point out that the government has determined that from 1 January 2026, the VAT rate on overnight stays will increase from 9% to 21%.

This means that we have to calculate this higher rate in our rental prices for the lodges. Our rates for 2026 have been adjusted accordingly.

If the VAT increase does not go through, you will receive a refund of the VAT difference on your (down) payment. This is approximately 10% of the (down) paid rent.
