    This was a great find on Booking.Com and I don't believe we could have asked for anymore from the hosts. The location was excellent as it was a very short walk from the station and the property itself was immaculate and well provisioned. Yes the...

Our holiday home is the former business property of the milkman who lived there from 1955. For this time was there from 1890 a shoemaker in run and inhabited by a brother and a sister.
We are a couple with a vacation rental. We have pleasure in order to give guests a feeling of home. We like cycling through Middelburg and the surrounding area. That is why we have four bikes at the disposal of our guests.
The holiday home is located in a quiet part of the Centre of Middelburg, but yet very close to all the shops. Middelburg was the most important city in the Netherlands after Amsterdam in the golden age. Everything is within walking distance away in the Centre. The Center consists of historic residential houses from the 16th and 17th centuries. Near the holiday house with a guarded car park.
