The inhabitants of Westwoud live closely with nature. The greenest initiatives are springing up from the ground like mushrooms. For example, on the outskirts of Westfries you'll find a small West Frisian village with a ribbon development - 't Keetje fruit growers. The owner sells home-made jams, honey, juices, and filled fruit baskets here. Next to the shop you will find the nine-hectare fruit nursery, where apples and pears are grown.
Do you prefer being more active? In the middle of the panoramic and water-rich landscape, between Hoorn and Enkhuizen, you can play golf at Golfbaan Westwoud. Both beginning and experienced golfers can challenge one another here. After a game of golf, relax in the brasserie where you can enjoy a view across the countryside.
