About this property

Holiday Home in Grou near Frisian Lakes

Welcome to this charming holiday home in the picturesque water sports village of Grou. This lovely house was completely renovated in 2025 and is located in the middle of the picturesque landscape of Friesland. It is very suitable for families. There is a spacious garden where children can play to their heart's content, while parents relax and enjoy the sun.

Grou itself is a paradise for water sports enthusiasts, full of opportunities for water adventure and outdoor discoveries. Rent a boat just 500 meters from your holiday home and sail across the water of the Frisian lakes or nature reserve De Alde Feanen. Discover the Frisian countryside and the bustling city of Leeuwarden by bike. Cycling route de 8 van Grou leads you through the Frisian landscape and you go across the water with 8 ferries. This route starts almost at your doorstep and is wonderful to do. A fantastic event in the SKS Skutsje Silen, which starts every summer in the town of Grou.

The cozy styled house has a wood stove and the modern open kitchen is equipped with all conveniences. The bathroom has recently been renovated and the bedrooms have also been modernized. This holiday home is a real Frisian recommendation!

Dieser bezaubernde Ort hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen! Die gemütliche Einrichtung war wunderschön, und der Holzofen sorgte für eine besonders stimmungsvolle Atmosphäre. Wir verbrachten unsere Tage damit, Grou zu erkunden und mieteten uns sogar ein Boot in der Nähe, um die friesischen Seen zu genießen. Absolut empfehlenswert für Familien, die Spaß und Entspannung suchen.

Vi havde en fantastisk tid i dette feriehus! Stedet var super hyggeligt, og haven var lige til vores børn at løbe rundt i, Jeg elskede, at vi kunne leje en båd i nærheden og udforske søerne, hvilket var et totalt højdepunkt, Køkkenet havde alt, hvad vi havde brug for, og WiFi var rimeligt nok til vores enheder, Den eneste ulempe var, at badeværelset kunne bruge lidt mere opmærksomhed, men samlet set følte vi os hjemme, Ville helt klart komme tilbage!
