2+2 for you
The bureau for tourism Friesland Holland has launched a new holiday formula: 2+2 for you! It concerns 5-day Discovery Holidays which offer easily affordable cycling and boating holidays full of variety.
The holidaymaker will stay for four nights (2+2) in two different hotels, hostels or luxury Bed & Breakfasts. The suitcases will be transported by the Travel Service of Friesland Holland. In case of a breakdown, the Friesland Holland Assistance will immediately take action so that within 90 minutes you can be on your way again. The luggage service and the assurance to continue one’s trip are included in the price.
It’s an experience
The accommodations where you stay the night have been selected based on their appeal. They are located centrally in one of the holiday regions of Friesland or other areas of the province where there is much to be experienced. The taker of a 2+2-holiday will stay two consecutive nights in one place and the next two in a different location. From these accommodations the attractive regions around the hotel, hostel or Bed & Breakfast are explored by following routes in loops not unlike the shape of a clover leaf. The individual sections of the routes are not repeated and therefore provide plenty of variety!
After the second night, on day 3, one cycles to the next accommodation by following a route through a charming region with many attractions. The holidaymaker is free from any worries regarding the luggage as the Friesland Holland Travel Service will transport this to the next accommodation. After two nights in the second location the traveller will journey back to the location of the first accommodation, the start address where, if applicable, the car can be collected.
Programme
Your cycling holiday will start at the beautiful Sporthotel Iselmar, located at the water’s edge in Lemmer. The hotel has many modern amenities and offers guests a delicious dinner as well as a good bed. On the day of arrival, if you so wish, you can already go on a cycle tour to the Kuinrebos. Tip: do also visit the ‘Orchideeën Hoeve’ in Luttelgeest – ‘a world full of colours and blossoms’. On the programme for the second day is a cycle tour to the Gaasterlandse Bossen (woods) as well as along the coast of the IJsselmeer. After cycling you will dine again in Sporthotel Iselmar. You might like to visit the small town of Sloten and in the springtime you could also visit the flower fields in the Noordoostpolder. It’s all up to you.
On the third day you’ll be cycling to Hotel Holland Inn in Wolvega which is also a good starting point for undertaking trips in Friesland. The family-run hotel is located in a tranquil area where you will receive a warm welcome and be well looked after. In the evening you can take your time to dine in the restaurant of the hotel. The following day, after a good night’s sleep and breakfast you can explore the nearby nature area of the Lendevallei. The landscape of the Lende brook valley provides a lot of diversity: marshy areas, alder swamps, heathland, peatland ditches and windbreaks.
