Nicolehoeve

On Tiengemeten (Goudswaard) in the former Brienenswaard polder, you can find the Nicolehoeve, a farm from 1911. Tiengemeten originated as sand plate in the Haringvliet, a former sea arm of the North Sea (before the Delta works) and has grown to become an island over the centuries.

Here you definitely get that island feeling. The ferry service across the Vuile Gat (what’s in the name…) sails all year through across the Haringvliet between Tiengemeten and Nieuwendijk. When you travel to the nature island Tiengemeten you will certainly be impressed by the peace, the space and the wideness.

On this unique island you can walk along and through the meadows, reed vegetation, mud areas, pioneer vegetation, bush fields, marsh vegetation, herbaceous and tidal forests. In the former Margueritahoeve, Natuurmonumenten established an information centre, in the shed of the Helenahoeve you find an agricultural museum and you can visit a museum that is dedicated to the work of the illustrator/author Rien Poortvliet. On Tiengemeten there is playing nature especially for children: more than 4.5 hectares of trees, small streams, flowers, mud and animals.

The Nicolehoeve is located on a spacious plot, has an intimate atmosphere and a modern interior that matches the style of the home. On the ground floor you find the dining room annex open kitchen (oven, microwave and dishwasher) and the former washing room is renovated to a comfortable and spacious living room (with wood fire). There is also one bedroom on the ground floor. On the first floor there are three bedrooms and the bathroom (with bath tub). Outside you can relax on the comfortable terrace. You also have a chopping shed. Tiengemeten is a car free island. However, you as guest from Buitenleven Vakanties, have access to the island by car. The crossing for our guests and maximal 3 cars is included in the rental price.
