Cosy neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything is so far away
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a fantastic little village, lovely forest, nice people
Auto-translated to English by AIA neighbourhood with many amenities. Various schools and community centre within walking distance. Fitness within walking distance. Nice nature parks for a walk.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience is quite good, it's a cosy neighbourhood with many nice shops, there is little greenery in the city centre (except for the Walle then) but otherwise very pleasant
Auto-translated to English by AIUsually quiet neighbourhood and most people are nice but there is almost nothing to do, luckily there is a small shop, a primary school, football and tennis but if we want something else we have to go straight to Hulst or Terneuzen
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice village! Small and green. Sufficient amenities (Spar, hairdresser/beauty salon, café, chip shop once a week). A bit of forest, football and tennis courts. School and childcare. Often activities to do (Halloween, Sinterklaas, Vogelrock, Carnival, beach footvolley) which are often very nice but unfortunately almost always end in vandalism. That is a shame though!
