This farm is located in the mound village of Piaam just behind the old sea dike between Makkum (2 km) and Workum (8 km). The centuries old 'pleats' has a special atmosphere and an incredibly beautiful view. It is possible to sleep with up to 20 people in 9 bedrooms (possibly expandable to 11 rooms for 24 pers.), 4 of which have private bathrooms, the others with shared luxury sanitary facilities. There is also a sauna. Downstairs is a spacious cozy living room in the stable and a comfortable farmhouse kitchen overlooking the large barn. Both the stable and the barn have French doors to terraces surrounding the farm with a flower meadow and orchard. The whole place is heated sustainably. In the restoration of the national monument, reused and sustainable materials from the environment were used as much as possible. The farm is operated by an ANBI foundation that also organizes (cultural) meetings (max 85 pers.). Please inquire about the possibilities.
Nature and surroundings
The grounds around the farm have been redeveloped. There is a mound meadow with native wildflowers and shrubs to promote biodiversity. Because of its location next to a Natura 2000 bird area, it is especially important to pay attention to promoting insect populations. Every autumn hundreds of thousands of geese fly over Piaam towards the south. They spend the night on the fields surrounding the mound village. The outer dike nature reserves in the IJsselmeer just across the dike near Piaam are a well-known spot for bird watchers. Just across the dike near Piaam is the Ral Bird Viewing Hut, named after the water bird. The bird hide offers views of reed marsh, the IJsselmeer and the shallow water of the Piaam channel. The nature house is located in the protected reclamation area of two 17th-century duck decoys. These duck decoys used to be the property of the decoyman, who caught ducks here to sell as delicacies. The Buismanskoai can be visited with a guide from It Fryske Gea.
