This is a particularly lovely spot! The village of Oostwoud is situated in the midst of the meadows, nearby the historical town of Medemblik and a few kilometres from the beaches of De Vooroever recreation area beside the IJsselmeer. Cycle through the green countryside to the harbour town of Medemblik within thirty minutes, where you can relax on the IJsselmeer beach after an afternoon of culture: all in one day! It doesn't get better than this!
The green oasis of Egboetswater is located near the village. This nature reserve is a wonderful place to unwind. You can cycle, walk and sail here, and they also organise the loveliest outings for children including bat spotting, an afternoon with the beekeeper or looking for creepy-crawlies. If this doesn't relax you completely then you can also visit De Bongerd sauna. That last bit of stress will melt away like snow in the sun. This small village offers quite a lot of hospitable accommodations. Choose from a bed & breakfast, mini campsite or luxury bungalow. Yes, you heard it: you never have to go home again.
