The picturesque village of Zuiderwoude is nearby Amsterdam, but there is no sign of any city hassle here. There is nothing but extensive meadows, grassland birds and wooden houses. This nearly thousand-year-old place in Broek in Waterland is the ideal spot to stop for a while.
After a cycling or hiking trip, relax on the terrace at 't Einde tea garden, where you can enjoy a sumptuous high tea in a lovely spot between the meadows. The chickens still run freely in the yard here. Slightly further up you can sample wine (and the most delicious snacks!) at Suyderwou's Wijnloods. Enjoy a panoramic view across Broek in Waterland from the wooden deck terrace. And all that within cycling distance from Amsterdam. Now its time to continue.
