Sleep in peace in a houseboat floating on the Elfstedenwater, near Leeuwarden.
This attractive houseboat offers views, silence and comfort: a spacious bed, a sitting area, a private bathroom and large windows on the water.
Wake up to reeds and meadow birds, relax on your terrace or float away in your mind. Pets are welcome.
In the authentic farmhouse in the yard is restaurant WeidumerHout, where you are welcome for lunch or dinner. Reservations are useful, especially on weekends. The sauna is also located in the farmhouse and can be booked privately.
In this atmospheric houseboat on the Eleven Cities Route, close to Leeuwarden, you literally stay on the water. The space is smart and comfortably furnished, with a cozy living room where you can sit, read or just look outside. Large windows give a view of the reeds, the water and the Frisian landscape. Inside it is warm, quiet and inviting.
There are two bedrooms: one with two beds that are next to each other and a smaller room with a bunk bed. The bathroom is modern and equipped with a rain shower. In the compact kitchen you can easily make something yourself; there is a fridge, a Nespresso coffee machine and everything you need for a breakfast by the water.
On the private terrace you can sit outside, eat or just watch everything pass by. You have complete privacy and direct contact with nature. The houseboat is suitable for four people.
Here, you'll stay between silence and comfort — in a place that feels simple and special at the same time.
Access
As a guest, you have the entire houseboat at your disposal, including the terrace on the water. All spaces are private: the bedrooms, living room, kitchen and bathroom are just for you.
Outside you step directly into the yard of Pean-buiten Weidum: a spacious and green estate in the middle of Frisian nature. You can walk around freely here, along the Elfstedenwater or walk towards the farm.

The area
You can walk or cycle endlessly through the Frisian landscape, past old churches, villages and the Elfstedenwater. From your houseboat you can step straight into the outdoors: a morning on the terrace, an afternoon on the SUP, an evening in the sauna.
The atmosphere is relaxed, down-to-earth and real. No masses of tourists, but the good life. Here you can experience Friesland as it is meant to be.
