Your Stay in a B&B North Holland
North Holland, one of the Netherlands' most celebrated provinces, is a hub of culture and tourism. Book your North Holland B&B for an unforgettable Dutch adventure exploring the iconic canals of Amsterdam, picturesque villages and a coastline that's unlike anything you're used to.
Discover Amsterdam
A visit to Amsterdam is a must for any traveller. Its world-famous canals, the historic Anne Frank House, and lush Vondelpark are just the beginning. Explore the Rijksmuseum, home to masterpieces like Rembrandt's The Night Watch, or immerse yourself in the life of Van Gogh at his dedicated museum. Wander through the quaint Jordaan district or trendy De Pijp, and top it off with a scenic boat tour for a unique perspective on this enchanting city.
Charming Towns and Villages
North Holland’s appeal extends far beyond Amsterdam. Discover Haarlem’s cobblestone streets, Alkmaar’s famous cheese market, and the postcard-perfect villages of Edam, Volendam, and Marken with their colourfully painted wooden houses. If you have time, explore the ports of Hoorn and Enkhuizen or the fortified towns of Weesp and Naarden to glimpse this region’s rich history.
Unique Beaches
North Holland’s coastline is a paradise for watersports enthusiasts and beach bums alike. The North Sea, Wadden Sea, and IJsselmeer offer endless opportunities for swimming, sailing, surfing and walking in the wetlands. For a more laid-back experience, visit Zandvoort, Bergen aan Zee, or Egmond aan Zee—each with its own unique coastal magic. A North Holland B&B provides the perfect base for your seaside getaway.
IJsselmeer and Texel
The IJsselmeer is the largest freshwater lake in the Netherlands. With quiet bays, scenic harbours, and nature reserves, it is ideal for day trips. For adventure seekers, why not book a sailing weekend at a bed and breakfast North Holland? A ferry ride from Den Helder takes you to Texel, an island known for its pristine beaches, delightful villages, and the Ecomare seal sanctuary. Don’t miss cycling to Texel’s iconic lighthouse for panoramic views.
Where is North Holland, and how do you get there?
North Holland lies to the northeast of the Netherlands and is the country’s tourism centre, home to Amsterdam. The region is easily accessible by flying into Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport. Once there, hiring a car is the ideal way to explore the area’s many attractions at your own pace.
