Jantje Vacation Apartment, 35219 - Jantje Apartment, Ground Floor/Upper Floor

The vacation rental is located on the outskirts of Hesel in East Frisia. Geographically, it lies between Leer (15 km away) and Aurich (22 km away), which are the nearest major shopping towns. As a cycling region with flat terrain and a well-developed network of bike paths right outside the door, biking is a real pleasure. Horseback riders can enjoy their hobby at the nearby riding stable. Hesel boasts the largest contiguous forest area in East Frisia and is perfect for long, relaxing hikes or walks. There’s plenty to discover in the Hesel Forest, such as the ruins of the former monastery, a forest adventure playground, a tree nature trail, and, of course, the local flora and fauna. A small highlight is the hand-cranked ferry, which you can operate yourself to cross from one bank to the other. The fully functional Dutch windmill in Holtland offers tours on Sundays from May through October at the mill café, along with a view from the mill gallery. A visit to the water park provides information—through exhibits and display panels—on all topics related to drinking water, as well as the history and technology of water supply.

The Hesel vacation region also has plenty to offer culturally: A small archaeological exhibition provides insights into early settlement, dating back to the 13th century. In the shopping town of Leer, we have a local history museum, a tea museum, and the museum harbor with historic ships and harbor tours. Right next to the harbor is Leer’s historic old town, and the Leer Miniature World showcases East Frisia—from the inland areas to the coast and the islands—all in miniature format across 1,200 m².

Throughout the year, there’s plenty going on in and around the region: Some highlights include the summer festival at Gut Stikelkamp, the harvest festival (Sept./Oct.) in Hesel, East Frisia’s largest fair, the Gallimarkt (mid-Oct.) and the Tour Skippers’ Meeting in Leer, ship transfers of luxury liners from the Meyer shipyard, the Park der Gärten for sightseeing and/or events, small museums here and there, etc....
