About this property
Luxury Dune Villa 'The Dunes' - North Sea Coast, 6 bed, 2,5 bath; 3-6 persons
Spacious, away from it all Dune Villa. Natura 2000 location with grenery all around, three double bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, wood-burning fireplace and infrared sauna with full spectrum radiators.
The house is part of a retreat location. Barbequing or parties not allowed.
Sound sensitive? Sometimes, for restricted periods of time, process supporting music can be heard from the adjoining retreat house. Also, depending on the wind, planes flying over may be heard.
We cannot describe this house better than our guests: 'Comfort, facilities and furnishings: *****, Hygiene *****, Hospitality *****, Surroundings (dunes, meadows, forest, beach and sea) ***** Wi-Fi *****. We have been in many holiday homes, but we have never experienced it so completely. 'A very complete house. Beautiful nature! What a wonderful environment. You feel right at home here. In the middle of the green of the North Holland Dune Reserve. What a special place this is'.
After entering the entrance area, you will first find a fully equipped dining kitchen (16m²) on the ground floor. From there you reach the hall with guest toilet and the stairs to the upstairs bathroom and two bedrooms.
Also adjacent to the kitchen: the spacious living area of 22,5m² with a slate floor, underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove. Garden doors and high windows offer a view of a varied green decor: a deep garden with adjoining forest.
Sliding louvre panels separate the living room from a bedroom (12m²) with adjoining bathroom. The two single beds in this fully paneled room can be folded up in a cupboard wall. This creates an atmospheric and intimate office or Zendo with a floor space of just under 8².
On the first floor you will find another two bedrooms, each with two single beds (200 x 90, Auping/tilting spiral), sink, a writing desk and more than enough cupboard space. On the landing adjacent to the bedrooms you will find a very spacious bathroom with a toilet, sink and walk-in shower. The second bedroom gives access to a double infrared sauna with full spectrum radiators. Recreationally relaxing, but also great for those who want to relieve muscle pain or rheumatic complaints.
Please read the house rules before booking.
Walking, cycling, reading, writing, making music, cooking or quietly staring outside... More than a holiday home, this villa on the coast is a home for all seasons. The ideal place for lovers of nature and space. So with that unusually beautiful location: in the North Holland Dune Reserve, in the yard of an ancient dune farm. Once installed you can walk or cycle here for days without having to see another car. “An intimate mansion in the countryside,” one guest called it. .
The garden, facing south, is 14 meters wide and 40 (!) meters deep. With a free location on the east and south side, separated from trees and forest by only a ditch, on the west side separated from the garden of the adjoining main house by a strip of branches and willow fencing. You can park your car at the entrance of the dune reserve, a four-minute walk from the house.
Green, green and again: green. Duinvilla Het Janhuis is surrounded by a number of gardens, bordering meadows and woods. This gives you the feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Extra special is the location in a protected nature reserve: the North Holland Dune Reserve. This beautiful nature park is about 5,300 hectares in size, making it one of the largest contiguous nature areas in our country. It is about 20 kilometers long, an average of 2.5 kilometers wide and stretches from the village of Wijk aan Zee to the Schoorlse Duinen. Every kilometer in the area is different, with specific plant and animal species.
In Castricum you will find everything for an ideal holiday. Castricum has its own station and cities such as Amsterdam, Haarlem and Alkmaar can also be reached quickly by car.
And what do you do when you wake up in the morning and another beautiful beach day stretches out in front of you? Then you grab the bike and paddle to the sandy beach of Bakkum, which is just a bit quieter (no pavilions) than that of the other seaside resorts. There you can easily last all day with a booklet and the surf. In the evening you move to the beach of Castricum aan Zee and sit down on a terrace of one of the beach pavilions that are again plentiful there.
For an additional cost of € 17.50 per bed, we are happy to make the beds for you before arrival. You can order bicycles directly from a local bicycle rental company. You will receive information about this with the confirmation of your reservation.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Thomas van Kleef

Why they chose this property
Except for nature lovers, The Janhuis is also very suitable for musicians: in the sitting room there is a always well tuned piano. In the chapel of the adjacent retreat house there is even a grand piano which you can use if the chapel is not in use by guests of the retreat house.
What makes this property unique
This house is a house for all seasons. Much more than just a ' holiday home ' it is really a comfortable ' home House '. Also, for example, to write a book, for study or for some extra rehearsal days of, for say, a String Quartet, this is an ideal setting. For example, there is a spacious utility room with washer and dryer and it is always very comfortable thanks to the floor heating. And not only have the bedrooms more than ample closet space, in every bedroom there is also a writing table.
Because the entire House is so spacious and really comfortable and the kitchen too is very well equipped, it will fit you like a glove.
