Compact beach cottage near IJmuiden

Just a stone’s throw from the coast near IJmuiden, where you can hear the soothing sound of the surf, you’ll find this stylish beach cottage for two. This compact retreat proves that sustainability and comfort go hand in hand: everything has been thoughtfully arranged within its 27 m² space. The interior has been tastefully decorated in collaboration with an Amsterdam-based home furnishings brand that strives for a fully circular lifestyle. During your stay, you’ll dine on tableware made from 100% recycled materials. Outside, you can relax on your own covered porch. Your dog is also more than welcome here.

The Accommodation
The cottage is detached and single-story. The layout is designed so that the sleeping and living areas are pleasantly separated from one another. In a secluded corner, you’ll find a comfortable double bed (complete with hotel-quality linens) for optimal rest and privacy. The living area features a cozy sitting area with a lounge sofa and a comfortable dining table. Thanks to the air conditioning and heating, you can enjoy a pleasant indoor climate here in every season. The fully equipped kitchen features a 2-burner induction cooktop, a combination microwave, a refrigerator with a freezer compartment, high-quality kitchenware, and unique recycled tableware. A filter coffee maker, basic spices, hand soap, and kitchen linens are already provided for your convenience. The neat bathroom is equipped with a shower, toilet, sink, hair dryer, and lovely toiletries. Outside on the covered porch, you’ll find a lounge sofa where you can relax and daydream.

The Resort
You’ll be staying at a small-scale, low-traffic resort where sustainability is the norm. At the cozy bar, you can pull up a chair for an organic breakfast, Fairtrade coffee, and drinks. Many of the fresh ingredients and herbs come directly from the resort’s own greenhouse and pick-your-own garden. Parking is available in the adjacent public lot (including electric charging stations). Want to actively explore the area or just relax? Rent a bike at the front desk, join a yoga class on the sand, or pick up a bingo card at the front desk to join the beach cleanup—armed with litter pickers.

The Surroundings
The park’s location is unique—from the grounds, you can walk straight into the protected dune area of Zuid-Kennemerland, with the wide beach and cozy beach pavilions just beyond. Marvel at the impressive sight of seagoing vessels at the IJmuiden sea locks or explore the historical Forteiland. Prefer to head into the city? In no time at all, you’ll be in the charming center of Haarlem, bustling Amsterdam, or on the boulevard in Zandvoort.
