We slept in a real windmill

It was so charming. Kitchen and living space on main floor. 2 bathrooms. Master suite on the third floor. Lots of ladders, so must be able to climb! The countryside was gorgoeus. They were fixing the blade of mill when we were there so we didnt get to see it run. Did not affect our opinion. Charming town, Great bars and food. Maarten was a gracious host. We had everything we needed including bikes to ride to the city.

Amazing experience

We only were able to stay for a single evening, but it was an experience we will not forget. The place is beautiful and how often do you get to stay in a windmill? Maarteen is incredibly helpful and was a welcoming host. We are incredibly thankful to have had the opportunity to visit this unique accommodation.

Beautiful

I'm not sure I can do this property justice. The charm of this windmill is unmatched by any place I have ever stayed. Every time I walked to another room or opened another door there was something incredibly authentic and interesting to look at. The location of this property is also unmatched. From the goats to the horses, donkeys and cows. It was a countryside wonderland. I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge the host. He was beyond accommodating and communicative. If I could give this place 10 stars I would.

Relaxing and unique stay

This was a fantastic Dutch experience. Great location to bike and Abcoude was fun to explore. We recommend Ollie's and Acqua Farina. We rented a car so we could visit other areas and go into town for groceries. The train station was very convenient. Staying in a windmill like everyone else mentions...truly a unique experience. Our host was very responsive and easy to communicate with.

Beautiful Abcoude

My family and I loved this property! Such a charming town and unique way of experiencing Amsterdam. Peaceful surroundings and the windmill had everything you could need to be comfortable. Maarten was very responsive during our stay, even helping us get a doctor’s appointment in town. We traveled to four countries during our European vacation and our family all agree that this was our favorite part.

Once in a lifetime !!

How many people get to stay in a real windmill ! This place was amazing. There were 6 of us and our adult children enjoyed this setting beyond our imagination. There were goats and sheep in a picturesque setting that could be a painting. Maarten was very responsive and it was very nice to relax here after a hard day of touring. Abcoude is beautiful little town as well.

Wonderful break in the country

My family and I (two tween boys) had a wonderful few days in Abcoude in the windmill. The pictures are true to life so we felt we already knew the place when we arrived. Maarten was wonderful to deal with it was a huge bonus for him to have bikes available for us to use. We went on bike rides into town every day! We would highly recommend the windmill for a few days outside of Amsterdam.

This was an awesome experience to have stayed in such an amazing place. A short trip to Abcoude

This is so perfect. Uber to station for 5 euro and they all turned up. Abcoude is just a lovely town and from the station it’s about 22 min to Amsterdam central. The accommodation is just perfect and we spent a day just lazing around and a walk into town. It just perfect and communicates with Martian we’re smooth and trouble free Thanks

Picturesque!

The windmill and Abcoude were absolutely what we were looking for in our stay in the Netherlands. The windmill was 100% as advertised, and I agree with Maarten that you should not over plan your stay because Abcoude and the countryside around the windmill offer so very much to do and explore. We especially liked Anna Haen and Jasmyn (we had amazing meals at both). The people were incredibly friendly, and the town itself was both quaint and welcoming. For a good morning coffee and delicious breakfast don’t forget to go to Ollies the American pancakes were especially delicious (served with real maple syrup!). I can’t say enough, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely come back!

FANTASTIC - HIGHLIGHT OF OUR TRIP!

I can't recommend this place enough! The interior is incredible, and offers so much room - way more than we expected. The exterior speaks for itself - how cool it is to stay in a working windmill! The hosts were extraordinarily kind - they even gave my little girls Dutch souvenirs. Location was great - uber picked us up and dropped us off in a timely manner. Short walk or bike ride into Abcoude. We spent two weeks traveling through Europe and this was most definitely the highlight of our trip. Thanks to the best hosts ever!

Amazing Windmill Getaway

This is truly magical experience. Only about 25 minutes from Amsterdam and you are staying in a beautiful windmill in a serene location. Marteen the host was kind and responsive. An experience you have never had. You do need to be comfortable climbing very steep stairs. The goats and sheep are very cute. Great place for a family to chill and reconnect. Five of us fit great. The beds were super comfortable. If you want a unique Dutch experience this is it.

Perfect family vacation with easy access to many sights

Our family of five, 3 adults, a teen and a 12 year old loved our stay in the Windmill. We stayed a week, went into Amsterdam by train 3 days and had a rental car to visit some of the surrounding towns. Its a 25 minute walk to the town of Abcoude or a quick bike ride. Maarten thanks for your hospitality and quick response to any question I had and for running the mill towards the end of our stay. The Netherlands has many amazing sights, but the favorite of my daughters was riding the bikes loaned to us by Maarten around the river and canals right by the mill. On the spur of the moment we drove one day to Hoge Veluwe National Park - about an hour away and rode the bikes provided in the park while another family member went to the Kroller-Muller Museum - we highly recommend this day trip. We commented frequently how happy we were to have rented a place outside of Amsterdam. We hope to visit again - its a special place.

What a great experience!

Oh my goodness, what an amazing experience!! This was our second time staying at the windmill. I originally thought it would not be as great as the first time since we had already experienced it- I was mainly doing it again for my kids. Boy was I wrong!! This place is magical! It is such an amazing windmill- the history, the land, the owner. Maarten is such a great guy- greeting us as though we were long lost family. The beauty and history of the windmill is exceptional-we learned even more this trip. The area along the Gein that it sits is so beautiful- no wonder the famous painter Mondrian painted this windmill several times, it's grandiour is breathtaking. If you are lucky enough to have a chance to stay at this windmill- snatch it up! You will create a lifelong memory for you and your loved ones!

Once in a lifetime opportunity

It was such a treat to celebrate our 25th anniversary with a visit to Abcoude and Maarten's wonderful windmill. We travelled a lot through the region by car, so staying just outside of Amsterdam made it a lot easier to get out and on the road. The unit is a short bike ride to the center of town and the train station, and wonderfully situated with canals and biking activity on one side, and expansive farm land and a view of the town center on the other. Everything inside is just fascinating, and Maarten was a wonderful host. We remained in contact during our stay, and he helped us with a lot of questions about the area. The rental description is accurate and is not a good option for the mobility challenged or where small children might go unsupervised. All furnishings are very comfortable, and the unit is stocked with everything you would need to be comfortable during your stay. Our only regret was that we travelled to all the wonderful and quaint towns around the region and didn't spend more time relaxing at the windmill.

Holidays in a windmill: an experience to remember

When we decided to spend our holidays in The Netherlands we wanted to live in a special place. Why not in a windmill from the late nineteen century? We went to Abcoude by car from the south of Spain carrying our bikes (two adults and three children). We wanted to live Holland in a quiet way, doing simple things, like riding bikes, walking in the countryside or having a boat trip in the river next to the mill. The mill was the perfect complement to this unique and great experience that no one of us will never forget. The mill is surrounded by lush pastures, we enjoyed watching the cows and sheeps (they like bread) and pheasants as well as nesting storks across the canal. Maarten was very nice, helpful, informative and interesting. He also invited us to see the sheeps shaving. We really enjoyed the space and would highly recommend a stay in the mill, specially for families with children; they always remembered! Macarena y Emilio. Córdoba (Spain)
