Original Airbnb host description
Reference only — book on Airbnb for live availability and pricing.
You can book your own wooden Little House in the charming garden of Nancy & Hans Wiltink, called 'Garden at Sea' (Tuin aan Zee). An oasis in the city, next to an old lock in the canal. It's built as a place to relax, no cooking facilities.
The space
Long ago (once upon a time) the water between the city of Amsterdam and this garden was a salty sea.
Huge tall-ships passed the lock, coming back from the Indies, loaded with spices and other goods. The area later developped as an industrial area, with shipyards and related industries.
Nowerdays the North part of Amsterdam - Amsterdam across the sea so to speak - is rediscovered, and is seen as one of the most trendy neighbourhoods of the world.
nancy works as a storyteller, Hans is consultant for sustainable projects.
