Lovely guesthouse!

Amazing views and room. Great breakfast and excellent host, including good recommendations for eating and drinking around town. Location is by the canals, which are very picturesque and there is even a kayak to use on the canals! The walk into the main town is around 20-25 minutes (very safe).
