A lakeside 14-room boutique hotel frayed by tall grasses, laundered linen whispering in the wind and a row of gabled, clapboard houses in misty hues skirting along the water’s edge. Here is a time-stood-still hamlet, home to a handful of former fisherfolk, charming architecture, sail boats, coots, and our hotel and restaurant De Mark.
Navigate the slow lane from Amsterdam: just 15 minutes bring you to a sweet-spot refuge between meadows and shore. An oasis where you can enjoy a swim in the lake, the sun-kissed jetty and fantastic views. Welcome to De Durgerdam.
