Sleeping on the water: 5 fish-friendly accommodations


1. Holiday home at Lake IJssel with sauna

In this comfortable holiday home by the IJsselmeer you and your family can enjoy peace, space and water fun. The house is located on a cozy vacation park where everything revolves around relaxation and activities on and around the water. For fishing enthusiasts, this park is a true paradise. You can fish directly at your bungalow for carp, pike, roach or bream, and that without a fishing license. Both in the park itself and in the surrounding waters you can cast your line in peace and quiet. With your own jetty you can step into a boat or take a refreshing dip. And after a day outside you can relax completely in the private sauna, which is real luxury on the water.

2. Nature cottage on the water in Friesland

This sustainably built holiday home is located on a large lake in Friesland, a true paradise for fishermen and peace seekers. From your own jetty you can spend hours fishing for carp or pike, for example, while enjoying the wide view over the water and the surrounding countryside.
The house is suitable for 6 persons, making it ideal for a family vacation or a weekend with friends. Outside you have access to two private terraces, one of which is located directly on the water. Here you can not only fish, but also enjoy breakfast in the sun, drinks on the waterfront or just unwind with the lapping of the lake in the background.

3. Holiday home on a fishing lake in Drenthe

This beautiful holiday home is located right by the water on a small park in the green heart of Drenthe. Ideal for fishing enthusiasts: from your garden you can fish for carp, bream, tench and other whitefish. Carp over 30 pounds are regularly caught here, with peaks of over 45 pounds! The house can accommodate 8 people and has a private sauna to relax after a day on the waterfront. And even if you don't like fishing, there is plenty to do in the area. Think long walks or bike rides through three National Parks or discovering the charming villages in the area. In short: a holiday for anyone who loves peace and quiet, nature and comfort.

4. Glamping with fishing water in Groningen

Looking for a fishing vacation in the north of the Netherlands? This luxury safaritent on a small-scale campsite in the Groningen countryside is ideal for those who love peace, nature and, of course,... fishing. The glamping is located on a quiet canal that flows into the Leekstermeer, a beautiful fishing and boating area where you can fully enjoy the water. The safaritent is suitable for 2 to 4 persons and is fully equipped. The atmosphere at the campsite is relaxed and friendly, with enough privacy and a natural environment where you can completely relax. There is also plenty to do outside of fishing. Think of hiking trails between cows, sheep and water birds, or beautiful bike rides through the Groningen countryside. For those who love fishing and nature, this is the ultimate glamping experience at home.

5. Waterfront holiday home near the Biesbosch

This detached holiday home on a cozy holiday park in South Holland is an ideal base for a fishing holiday with family or friends. Located near National Park De Biesbosch you will enjoy peace, space and plenty of opportunities to fish in one of the most water-rich nature reserves in the Netherlands. From the marina at the park you can sail straight into the Biesbosch. This vast area of creeks, willow forests and islands is a paradise for anglers. You can fish for pike, zander, perch, carp, bream, bindweed, predatory bleak and even catfish. From the end of April you also have the chance to catch strong river carp. Even those who do not want to fish for a while do not have to be bored. Explore the Biesbosch on foot, by bike or by canoe, spot birds or, with a little luck, a beaver. With nature on your doorstep and all comforts at your fingertips, this is the place for a versatile fishing vacation in your own country.
