After being pleasantly welcomed by our guest, Anita, she explained how to get to the cottage and even gave us a quart of fresh milk, as it was on a dairy. After walking past the chicken coop, and the pig, we were led over a bridge onto almost a magical private Cottage on a small island, surrounded by beautiful flowers. It was the perfect retreat to stay in order to venture out and experience both the countryside, and the city life of Holland, as we had planned visits to both Amsterdam and The Hague, as well as other destinations.
