Feel free to stay a little longer in Westfriesland. You can stay in lovely hotels, B&Bs, holiday parks and at (mini) campsites. Right in the city centre, surrounded by greenery or right by the water. Are you looking for peace and space? Then you’ll find plenty of spots surrounded by nature. If you fancy something a bit more off the beaten track, you can also stay in some rather unusual places. Think of a church, a boat, an old prison or a cabin amongst the meadows. A good bed and a generous dose of Westfriesland will do the rest.
At Hotel De Koepoort, you’ll stay on the edge of the city centre, opposite the old city gate.
Book your stay

Hotel Oostereiland was once a prison. Now you can choose to spend the night behind the old cell doors.
Come and stay in the old prison
You don’t get to sleep in a church every night. Heavens Hotel is situated in the Grote Kerk, right in the heart of Hoorn. The high arches and historic details have been preserved. Fortunately, the bed and the comfort are very much of this era. After your night under the high church roof, you can stroll straight into the city centre. Would you rather linger a little longer? You can also enjoy food and drink in the same historic church.
And even from behind the bedroom door, the church remains visible. Some rooms feature stained-glass windows, whilst others have original church pillars. Fancy something a bit more spacious? There are also suites with a freestanding bath or private sauna. A heavenly night’s sleep, but without all the fuss, in the centre of Hoorn.
Plan your stay
Water on your doorstep? At EuroParcs IJsselmeer, that’s quite literally the case. The holiday homes at Medemblik are situated right by the water, and you can easily hire a boat at the park. Prefer to stay on dry land? Then hop on a bike or take a dip in the indoor swimming pool.
At Park Wijdenes, you can take in the polder, the Markermeer and the West Frisian Omringdijk all at a glance. The car-free park features detached, gas-free lodges with solar panels for a sustainable stay. So hop on your bike, or simply stay put.
At EuroParcs Markermeer, the water is never far away. This small-scale park is situated right on the shores of the Markermeer, close to Enkhuizen. Choose a cottage by the water and let the rest of the day unfold.
No hotel corridors, just your own front door. At Hotelhuisjes Oosterleek, you’ll stay in a detached cottage surrounded by greenery. The Markermeer lies just behind the West Frisian Omringdijk. Each cottage has its own bathroom, seating area, dining area and terrace. And in the morning? Breakfast is simply brought to you. Then head up onto the dyke, grab your bike and off you go. Hoorn and Enkhuizen are both within easy reach. But of course, you’re also welcome to just sit back and enjoy the view of the polder.
You have your own terrace both in front of and behind your cottage. A lovely spot, then, for that breakfast delivered in the morning. After that? Hire a bike, cycle along the Omringdijk and see where it takes you. Hoorn and Enkhuizen are both close enough for a detour.
Book your stay
At Boot & Breakfast, you can sleep on a cruiser in the harbour of Enkhuizen. You don’t have to go sailing, but you can enjoy a good night’s sleep on the harbour waters.
Stay on a boat
B&B De Tocht combines an old farmhouse with comfortable rooms and views across the expansive countryside.
Unwind
At B&B Binnen en Buiten, you slide open the glass wall and the fresh scent of the polder wafts in.

Just carry on as normal? They do things a bit differently here. At Camping Boven 't Maaiveld, you can choose between a camping pitch, a fully equipped tent, a tiny house or a cabin. You can sleep in a ‘wikkelhouse’ at the new Wijland Cabins, with views over the meadows. One cabin even has a hot tub.
Camping amongst the pear trees, right in Wijdenes. At De Kampeertuin, the pitches are scattered throughout an old orchard. Surrounded by greenery, with plenty of privacy, and the Markermeer within cycling distance.
Want to get your feet in the clay? At TuinGoed Bonatèr, you’ll come pretty close. You’ll be camping amongst the organic market garden, animals and greenery. And the dyke and the Markermeer are just a stone’s throw away.
Here, ‘small’ really does mean small. Mini-campsite De Rozenbottel has four camping pitches on farmland. Choose your own view, pull up a chair, and you’re all set.
De Gouwe Stek is a small-scale family campsite in Bovenkarspel. You can choose between a camping pitch, a safari tent or a gypsy caravan. There’s plenty of space for children to play and for you to simply relax.
The name pretty much gives away where you are. Camping Dijk & Meer is situated in Andijk, just a few hundred metres from the IJsselmeer. Camp amongst the greenery, bake a pizza and round off the day by the fire.
At Camping De Groote Wijzend, there are five safari tents housed in a greenhouse on a nursery. With their own bathroom, kitchen and fixed beds, there’s little need to improvise. And if it rains? Well, you’ll still be in good hands here.
In Westfriesland, you’ll find hotels, B&Bs, holiday parks and campsites. For example, stay right in the city centre at Heavens Hotel or Hotel De Koepoort. Prefer a bit more space around you? Then take a look at Hotelhuisjes Oosterleek or EuroParcs Markermeer. From city to polder: there’s plenty to choose from.
A standard hotel room isn’t necessarily the only option in Westfriesland. At Heavens Hotel, you can sleep in a former church, whilst Hotel Oostereiland is housed in an old prison. At Boot & Breakfast, you’ll spend the night bobbing on the water. The Wijland Cabins at Camping Boven ’t Maaiveld also offer something a little different. This gives your stay that extra touch of West Frisian character.
