What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
This guesthouse has a charming Frisian-style exterior and a sophisticated and elegant interior, so it comes as no surprise to learn that the enthusiastic hosts are interior designers.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Red-brick thatched cottages and wild rose bushes line Alte Dorfstraße in the quiet village center of Kampen.
The rooms
Suites and rooms are individually styled with collected antiques and art, and several open onto private terraces.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The pool and sauna
A sauna cabin sits beside the indoor pool, and treatments range from classic massages to Ayurveda.
At the table
À la carte breakfast is served in the paneled dining room, or outside on the terrace beside hooded beach chairs.
How it began
The property began as a rowdy 1970s discotheque before the original building was demolished and rebuilt in 1993.
