About this property

Frisian cottage on the sea dike

NORDSEE. HILLGROVEN. FRIESENKATE ON THE SEA DIKE.
Want to spend your holiday in an authentic Friesenkate on the sea dike? The coastal towns of Büsum and St. Peter-Ording are not far away, and children up to age 12 stay for free.
This secluded Frisian cottage on the sea dike is surrounded by fields, meadows, and, of course, plenty of fresh North Sea air. The garden, where the scent of roses and hydrangeas fills the air and where hares, pheasants, and even the occasional sheep come to say goodnight, offers plenty of space for a wonderfully carefree and secluded outdoor experience with plenty of privacy.
The interior design concept has been lovingly and skilfully crafted to preserve the authentic character of the Frisian cottage, built in the 18th century, without sacrificing modern comforts.
A few old wooden crossbeams in the kitchen and the door frames are slightly lower than typical for that era, so very tall people may occasionally have to duck their heads. On the loft and in the annex, however, this isn’t necessary. These unique features reflect the charm of a bygone era when this cottage was a cosy and special retreat for the whole family and their closest friends—a tradition that continues to this day. Come experience it for yourself and enjoy the house’s unique ambiance.
The main house features a large open-concept living/dining area with a kitchen, a dining area for the whole family, a cosy reading nook with a view of the garden, a bathroom with a shower, and two bedrooms. Additional sleeping accommodation for two people are located upstairs on the loft under the thatched roof. In the annex, which has its own shower room, there is also sleeping space for two people on the loft, making this charming little property ideal for a family holiday—including grandparents, teenagers, or best friends—who appreciate something special.
Welcome to the QUARTIERFREUND family.

A beautiful thatched-roof house with a charming and stylish interior—very cosy and tastefully decorated. You feel completely at home from the very first moment. It has everything you need, and it really feels like home. The location is ideal: in the middle of nature, surrounded by fields and absolutely quiet, yet still close to all the sights. We really enjoyed our stay—highly recommended!

We were completely satisfied and absolutely thrilled! Great house, great amenities, super cosy, beautiful scenery and location! We even harvested a few apples in the garden (the biggest one weighed 452g!), horse droppings for breakfast, beautiful sunrises..... Excellent value for the money! But be sure to bring something for mosquitoes (a plug-in repellent or spray)... It made airing out the place difficult, but not impossible... The location, however, was great... Nice and quiet, almost no neighbors, but everything in the area is easily accessible by car... Beach, restaurants, shopping, strolling around... We’d love to come back!!!

Liebe Interessierte an diesem Objekt, gerne würde ich Sie vorab warnen. Leider mussten wir trotz bereits bezahlter Endreinigungspauschale von 120 Euro erneut 100 Euro nachzahlen aufgrund von Kleinigkeiten wie zum Beispiel einen Wäscheständer im Wohnzimmer anstatt im Hauswirtschaftsraum. Weiterhin wurden wir nachträglich über Wochen angeschrieben und angerufen obwohl die 100 Euro bereits seit Wochen überwiesen wurden.Es ist wirklich extrem schade, wie ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt im Nachgang durch die Eigentümer und die Organisation so zerstört werden kann…

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Sept 2025
Vielen Dank für Ihre Rückmeldung. Wir bedauern, dass Ihr schöner Aufenthalt im Nachgang mit Unannehmlichkeiten verbunden war. Die wiederholten Kontaktversuche wären nicht notwendig gewesen, wenn wir im Vorfeld eine kurze Rückmeldung Ihrerseits erhalten hätten. Wir möchten darauf hinweisen, dass klar beschrieben ist, wie die Ferienwohnung bei der Abreise zu hinterlassen ist und dass die nachberechneten Kosten mehrere Punkte betrafen, die wir Ihnen bereits anhand von Fotos aufgeführt haben. Zudem wurde der Betrag an eine falsche Bankverbindung gesendet, weshalb wir den Zahlungseingang nicht feststellen konnten. Trotz der entstandenen Unstimmigkeiten möchten wir uns für Ihre Rückmeldung bedanken. Beste Grüße Ihr QUARTIERFREUND-Team

Entspannung pur in der Friesenkate

Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Die Kate ist geräumig, toll eingerichtet und sehr individuell. Privatsphäre im großen Garten. Wesselburen bietet ein paar individuelle Restaurants fernab vom Touristenstrom. Action und Auswahl dann in SSPO.
