About this property

A peaceful vacation retreat in the heart of East Frisia

Welcome to the heart of East Frisia! Located on the outskirts of the village of Strackholt, our small holiday apartment (45 square metres) is on the ground floor of an outbuilding, offering a particularly peaceful setting and the sweeping views of the East Frisian countryside typical of the region. You can enjoy the view of the fields right from your breakfast table. The apartment is modernly furnished (oven, stove, refrigerator) and features a cosy double bed (1.8 m x 2 m) and a spacious shower (1.2 m x 0.8 m).

Right outside your front door, you can access the East Frisian bike network via its junction system, which often runs along the many surrounding canals. Trips to the recreational lakes “Timmeler Meer” and “Ottermeer” in Wiesmoor are ideal for canoeing, pedal boating, and stand-up paddleboarding, making an active holiday possible. The town of Großefehn is known as a windmill region. Seven windmills are accessible by bike, one of which is still in operation.
Of course, East Frisia also has its own beer, which is brewed in the neighbouring town of Bagband and can be enjoyed there in the charming beer garden.
The town of Strackholt is located in the heart of East Frisia, so all ferry terminals to the East Frisian islands can be reached by car in under an hour. But the picturesque old town of Leer and the fishing village of Greetsiel also invite you to take a stroll. For shopping, the cities of Groningen (NL) and Oldenburg are great options, both of which are a 45-minute drive away.

The apartment can also be booked for three people upon request.

Ruhe gesucht und gefunden

Sehr angenehm und ruhig. Wir hatten unsere E-Bikes dabei und haben damit die Gegend erkundet. Die nächsten Einkaufsgelegenheiten waren sehr gut und schnell mit den Bikes erreichbar. Wer die Ruhe sucht, der findet sie genau da.

Super ruhig

Genau das richtige um zu entspannen, sehr idyllisch auf dem Land. Aufs Fahrrad und los. Ganz viele andere Spots sind auch in 40- 70 min zu erreichen. Trittsicher sollte man angesichts der Holztreppe zur Fewo schon sein. Ich fand es super in dem gemüdlichen Raum mit Da

Immer wieder gern

Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt, von Anfang an. Es war auch kein Problem, dass ich spontan noch 1 Nacht länger geblieben bin. So viel Flexibilität gibt es nicht überall.

Nordisch moderne FeWo im Herzen Frieslands

Moderne, nordisch gemütliche FeWo. Drumherum viel Grün und erholsame Ruhe. Sehr freundliche und offene Vermieter. Ein TV und ein Kleiderständer würden die sehr geschackvolle und neuwertige Einrichtung abrunden. Strackholt eignet sich ausgezeichnet als Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge im schönen Friesland. Wir würden wiederkommen!

Moin Claudia, vielen Dank für die nette Bewertung. Freut uns, dass ihr einen schönen Aufenthalt hattet. Wir haben uns bewusst gegen einen Fernseher entschieden, um einen entspannten Urlaub zu bieten. Zum Streamen steht aber sonst ein WLAN zur Verfügung. Herzliche Grüße und bis zum nächsten Mal, Ann-Katrin
