Quiet remote village near Winsum

Nice and pleasant but also a bit boring village, living is nice and quiet but you are half an hour's drive or 45 minutes by bus away from the city. Otherwise, nice surroundings for a quiet bike ride or a tour on a moped or by car.

Peace and space in Wierhuizen.

With just one neighbour, this can hardly be called a "neighbourhood". I live at Wierhuisterweg 20 outside Pieterburen, consisting of three houses and one farm, amidst green farmland with clean air and silence. The bus stops in front of my house on request. I am 90 years old and live here alone, completely satisfied: I have a scooter, e-bike and 45km/h car, internet, television, a garden all around with fruit trees and little birds. But most importantly: I am healthy; I have four children and seven grandchildren! There is good street lighting, the road is well maintained, and a bus stops once an hour. As a born and bred Amsterdammer, I feel completely at ease here. Although I occasionally miss the Concertgebouw, the Stadsschouwburg, the Bijenkorf, the Kalverstraat,... I am still glad that I live in the open countryside of Groningen.

What peace and quiet

Had a good stay in the old smithy. Peace and spaciousness. People you meet on a walk are friendly.
