Langenhorn

View German

Just a poem

So that's how a vacation rental should be
Cozy, nice, and fine

We didn't miss anything in terms of facilities
It couldn't be better at home either

Everything is really great and clean
You immediately feel at home

Mr. Clausen, always very nice and helpful
Help is also close by if needed

The landscape is simply beautiful
It's a great way to pamper the soul

What more is there to say?
It was a time of pure comfort!!

My sister-in-law and I really enjoyed our time in Langenhorn, both of us can't remember ever having such a well-equipped vacation home, and we were even lucky with the weather.

Everything really fell into place, and we will remember this short vacation for a long time.

Wonderful holiday in and around Norden

The beach chair left nothing to be desired. Many thanks to the owners Mrs. Wobbe and Mr. Wagner.
Beautiful, cosy, complete and modern furnishings, very bright, small beautiful garden with the eponymous high-quality beach chair, conveniently located and exceptionally nice contact with the hosts - what more could you want...
Location in the middle between the beach and the city, ensures peace and quiet and at the same time proximity to the city and the sea - perfect!

It has been beautiful

We felt very comfortable, a very spacious house.
Everything very clean and well maintained!
Very good equipment and enough dishes in the kitchen.
We did not miss a garden. (No dog and no children with us). If there was a bathroom it would be really great.
We would like to come back again.

North Sea Holiday Homes - Coastal Vacation at Its Finest



In a holiday home or apartment on the German North Sea, you can fully enjoy your well-deserved vacation. Here, there is plenty of nature, unique landscapes, and also a lot to experience culturally. From the North Frisian Islands to the Jadebusen, you will find expansive beaches, reeds, and grasses. In national parks and nature reserves, you can observe many native species that are unique to the North Sea. From your rented beach house, you can go on a guided mudflat hiking tour. While the fresh coastal wind blows around your face, there is much to discover in the mud. A classic vacation at the beach, whether with family, a partner, or dear friends, is always a hit. With a private accommodation near the beach, you are just a few minutes' walk from the sea. Enjoy the whole day at the beach, relaxed in a beach chair or actively engaged, such as building a sandcastle, swimming in the cool water, or enjoying fun beach sports. Real highlights for North Sea vacationers include windsurfing or a spontaneous sailing trip.

Stylish Beach Villa or Affordable Room - Flexible North Sea Vacation in Private Accommodation



Holiday apartments and homes that are affordably rented out by private individuals are especially popular, offering coastal vacationers complete freedom. Many holiday homes on the North Sea also warmly welcome guests on a vacation with dogs. With your affordable accommodation from private landlords as your headquarters, you can plan your next vacation day exactly as you wish as a self-caterer. Many towns along the German North Sea coast delight their visitors with historical attractions and cultural highlights. With a holiday home in Dornum, you are just a stone's throw away from the baroque church in the town center. As a vacationer in a private apartment in Greetsiel, you can look forward to the unmistakable charm of old fishermen's cottages and narrow alleys. Many destinations, such as the seal breeding station in Norddeich, are easily and comfortably accessible by car for a day trip. Among the most popular beaches on the North Sea are the main beach in St. Peter-Ording, the green beaches in Büsum and Friedrichskoog, and the Tote Kliff at Kampener Beach.

Experience Beaches, Nature, and Culture - Private Accommodations on the North Sea



The North Sea also has a lot to offer for sports enthusiasts. With a rented bicycle, you can take extensive bike tours on well-developed and often paved paths along the North Sea coast, such as through East Frisia or the vicinity of Cuxhaven. Those who prefer a quiet and secluded vacation are best off in a holiday apartment on Borkum, Sylt, or one of the other North Sea islands. For those making last-minute plans for a short weekend getaway to the North Sea, there are also affordable rooms, apartments, and houses available for rent at short notice. Thanks to regular ferry connections from Wilhelmshaven, you can also explore the island group of Helgoland, located 40 kilometers from the mainland, on a day trip. Here, the North and South beaches attract enthusiastic beach vacationers year after year. Ferienhausmiete.de wishes you a great holiday and lots of fun on the fine sandy and wide beaches of the German North Sea coast.
