Our home is right by the historic centre of Alkmaar, which was founded hundreds of years ago and become a city of importance in the 15th century. Ot has the characteristic Dutch Canals and an old Canal surrounding the old centre. The 'Oude stad' is a very popular shopping area, with hundreds of small boutiques and shops in the elaborate and narrow streets.

Amsterdam is 35 mins away by car, 25 mins by train.
