Beautiful house on the North Sea Esens-Bensersiel Germany

Our house was built in 2008 and is located in Esens / Bensersiel. We have a large living-dining area with open kitchen on the ground floor. On the 1st floor are 2 children's room, a bedroom and a large bathroom. We have toys for kids, my son loves Lego! We can sit outside in the summer on a cozy wood deck. In our garden the kids find trampoline and in the summer a pool.

On foot you go in about 10 minutes in the downtown area of Esens. With the bike, 30 minutes drive to the beach to the sea.

We live within walking distance of the train station. Every hour the train goes to Wilhelmshaven, an important port city. You can also drive to the nice town Oldenburg within 90 minutes with the train. In 2 hours you will be in Bremen by train. Netherlands is not far away, in 90 minutes you are in Groningen with the car.

East Friesland is a historic region in the northwest of Lower Saxony, Germany. East Frisia has beautiful towns like Aurich, Leer and Jever. You can reach all these cities by bus or train.

Esens is located in the Wadden Sea National Park. The landscape is influenced by its proximity to the North Sea. The East Frisian Islands like Spiekeroog and Wangerooge stretch for 90 kilometres along the coast. They offer dunes and sand beaches, though in their center they have grass and woods as well. The area between the islands and the coast is unique in the world: the tide leaves a broad stretch of mudflat with creeks that attract an extraordinary number of species, worms and crabs as well as birds or seals. For this reason, the UNESCO World Heritage Fund declared the Wadden Sea, which had already been a national park, a global heritage site.

You can experience magnificent natural spectacles and amazing landscapes, such as the region's characteristic salt marshes and the steep sandy dunes.
From swimming in the sea and enjoying the wide expanses of beach - Ostfriesland promise ample rest and relaxation.

Eine gemütliche Wohnung in Amsterdam, nahe dem Zentrum. Die Familie hat uns sehr freundlich begrüßt und noch einige Tipps zur Stadterkundung gegeben. Sehr unkompliziert und auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert.

Sehr hilfsbereite und zuvorkommende Familie. Es gab eine gemeinsame WhatsApp Gruppe, in der man sich unkompliziert austauschen konnte. Es gab viele wertvolle Tipps für einen gelungenen Urlaub. Wir benötigten auch einen Arzt in dieser Zeit. Andrea hat ihren Vater als Unterstützung geschickt, der uns mit Rat und Tat zur Seite stand. Auch das Haus mit den Tieren wurde im Vorfeld umfangreich beschrieben, so dass wir uns auf alles einstellen konnten und keine Überraschungen vorfanden. Ein sehr gelungener Tausch!

We are a family of four: Carina, Achim, Anouk and Kai..
Carina and Achim are teachers. Our daughter Anouk is born 2008 and our son Kai is born 2010. Both our children are already experienced house exchangers and enjoy it as much as we do! We take great pride in looking after of our exchange house with big respect and caution, and expect you to do the same with our house.

We are an active family. We like to go by bike and love the sea.
We love to travel and explore new places, and we discovered that exchanging houses is a wonderful way of doing this.
