Description Ahoy There, Matey: Rotterdam

There's something intrinsically peaceful about a harbour view and this home sits right on the edge of Ouddorp Marina with a dining table on the terrace directly opposite this nautical scene.

Behind the apartment's front door, guests will find an interior that's bright and contemporary. There's plenty of natural light from the floor-to-ceiling windows at the end of the living space and a minimalist approach when it comes to furnishings and finishes. The kitchen is large enough for a bout of home cooking and the commanding wooden dining table brings a sense of occasion to mealtimes if it's too chilly to dine alfresco.

Sitting on a narrow connecting strip between two islands, the home has a rather unique position. On one side is the marina and Grevelingenmeer lake, while on the other, you can find Brouwersdam beach just under one kilometre away. Add to that a holiday resort around the corner with facilities that guests can access and you'll never be stuck for things to do.

Home truths:
*The home is spread over two floors, but there's a bedroom on the ground level
*There are parking spaces available for guests in the harbour's car park
*Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
*Two of the double beds are made up of separate singles arranged together
