The holiday-house of our friends is just located next to the remarkable dunes (see in the background on pic). It is its natural habitat with mainly pine-trees, except for its paths that have been laid out for visitors. If you do love nature explore the reserves "De Kijk-uit" (Watch) and "De Zandpanne" (Sand Place). We always enjoyed the little holidays over there ...

A nice area where our appartment was located. Yep, ... looks a bit cloudy ...
Some houses here do have influences of the English country style as well as of the remarkable cottage styles of Normandy, France in the Belle Epoque age. Included some Art Nouveau style.

With the beautiful villas all around that has been preserved in the famous "Belle Epoque" style until today ...

Between De Haan and Wenduine, the wooded state dunes are great for walking. In these woods with mainly pine-trees, some paths have been laid out for the walkers. We did the "Duinbossen" walking path, which leads you all the way to Wenduine. It's about 7 km.
