Friesland
An old farmhouse done up vintage style with four-poster beds and Hindeloopen's signature painted furniture, De Stadsboerderij promises a peaceful night's sleep, while the adjoining pub with back garden prettily fronting the lily-pad-strewn canal is a welcoming next-door neighbour. Room No 5 opens directly onto the water's edge. Rates include breakfast.
The hotel also offers a half-board option (an extra €26.95 per person).
