From 5 stars to 1 star
My first experience in this bed and breakfast on early 2017 was very good, so much that I planned to take my daughter with me during summer time, which I just did. This time, the way we were treated was bad: - Were not informed on the check out time (11 AM) and were charged 50 euros for late check out at 2 PM - Our stuff was dumped into a basket and placed it . out of the room - The way the staff approached us was rude. Will never return and will take back recommendations I gave to friends about this place.

Outstanding Experience at this hotel
Just what I was looking for. Quiet, peaceful, very scenic located in an iconic village 20 min from Amsterdam. The room is fantastic and the service was way above my expectations. The food is phenomenal; prepared with passion and love. I will come back on summer time!

Beautiful setting in North Amsterdam
This house is georgeous but fails to be 5 stars as the windows do not open properly and insect screens need to be fitted to the inside FULLY so we can really get air in the Taupe room but we nred protection fRom mosquitos a we got stung several times. It needs at least a ceiling fan too as the room gets very hot and in the summer ir Indian summer like we just had in September 2016, we could only get two small openings open and at night it spoilt our sleep as we were sweating so much in bed. The host Pamela is very willing and helpful so you get plenty of assistance. The staff were very helpful too. We were very dissapointed that there was not even a small safe in the room - this was a big error by the owners as we were travelling a long time and needed to put many documents away but in our own room safe. Not good. Public transport to get to Amsterdam is brilliant well done the Dutch - you really excel at this. In the centre of the village is a double electric charging point for electric cars - again excellent! Used my "NEW IN MOTION" charge card there. Nearby is the 3 music notes bar. Excellent place with great atmosphere and really nice food and the owner and staff and even the customers are so friendly. Talking if which, even 9n the buses, people in this lovely part on Holland are so friendly and helpful and nearly all speak English. A few minor points that the owners must improve and get a better rating for there establishment but you must visit this fantastic area!

Thank you for the idea of a fan. It rarely gets hot but when it does it is very humid. There are 2 windows that can open quite high. As it is a listed building we have restrictions on how to manage our building. Thank you for your stay. Kind Regards Pamela

relaxing location yet close enough to the city
visited following a friends' suggestion. extremely relaxing and great possibility for moving around if you so wish. having Chef Timothy taking care of us was an additional bonus

Beautiful B&B in a very pretty village
I really enjoyed my stay at Inn on the Lake. We arrived early in the morning and Pamela gave us a very warm reception, stored our luggage for us and set us up with bus tickets and an itinerary to explore the nearby towns of Volendam and Edam - this helped us with our jetlag (as we had come from Australia and Singapore) and gave us a beautiful introduction to Broeke, rather than get caught up in the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam city. The breakfasts were wonderful - I highly recommend the Pamela egg :) and the view of Napoleon's tea house from the breakfast room was gorgeous. After breakfast, take a walk around the town of Broeke - the town is so pretty, the houses look like dollhouses and the lake so soothing. We were lucky to be in Amsterdam for King Day so we got to celebrate with the locals - they invited us to sing the Anthem in the church next door and we got to watch the children play musical instruments and sell/recycle toys, clothes and books they have outgrown. And the whole of Amsterdam seemed to be dressed in orange!

Erholungsurlaub pur
Liebe Gastgeber es war ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt in Ihrem tollen Gästehaus am See. Oft sind die Bilder besser als die Wirklichkeit, bei Ihnen ist es noch viel schöner als auf den Bildern zu sehen ist. Wir wurden bestens versorgt und haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt. Eine tolle Bootstour mit dem Chef durch die bezaubernde Umgebung wird uns für immer in Erinnerung bleiben. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder !!! Liebe Grüße Astrid und Roland

Wunderschönes Hotel am See. Einfach Bezaubernd.
Das Frühstück war im Wintergarten mit Blick auf den wunderschönen See. Das Hotel hat einen unvergleichlichen Charme. Das Haus selbst ist 400 Jahre alt und von sehr lieben Gastgebern geführt. Die Gegend lädt zum entspannen und Sonne tanken ein. Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Wir haben leider verschwitzt ein Abenddinner zu buchen das soll sensationell sein. Aber dann beim nächsten mal. Wir wollten gar nicht nach Hause :)

Romantischer Ruhepunkt
Romantic Hide-Away im Norden Hollands; weniger geeignet für Stadt- als für Land-Reisende; sehr steile Treppen im denkmalgeschützten Gebäude; wunderschöne Umgebung; persönliche Betreuung
