Modern age meets architectual tradition in a gulfhouse on the Ostermarsch dyke
Norden
Up to 2 guests
1 bedroom
Friederike and Helmut's Ostfriesenhaus is located in the middle of fields and meadows, within walking distance of the Lower Saxony Wadden Sea Natural Heritage Site. A haven of peace that invites you to unwind. The twittering of birds, the call of oystercatchers, grazing sheep and the sound of the sea are your daily companions here.
Enter through the old barn door into the hallway, which is up to six meters high, and be enveloped by natural materials such as linen, wool and wood to create a warm, homely feeling. In the spacious bedroom with a double bed, a small writing corner with a view of the dyke provides a place of inspiration. Adjacent is one of the two bathrooms. The second one even has a bathtub with a view of an old apple tree.
The focal point of the house is the large, open kitchen with living area and an opening to the dining room. Read a good book on the corner sofa in front of the wood-burning stove or enjoy a cup of East Frisian tea in the matching, typical East Frisian "Kahla" cup for a real coastal atmosphere. You have a fantastic view of the garden through the white lattice windows.
Speaking of the garden: this enchanted place between old trees and beautiful flower beds not only offers you a sun terrace, a small seating area with a view of the house, but also a place with a view of the sunset and the dyke. The barbecue and a tree swing for daydreaming complete the beautiful places at this house.

Highlights from Friederike
Host since March 2023
- The detached property is surrounded by endless expanses and allows a view over the untouched nature to the dyke
- The traditional "Gulfhaus" has been lovingly renovated and combines modern with typical East Frisian elements
- In the dreamy garden, you can forget time and space between old trees in absolute peace and quiet
I'm Friederike and my husband Helmut and I are regular guests in our beautiful farmhouse right in the Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park. We come here to recharge our batteries and immerse ourselves in a different world far away from everyday life. I'm particularly proud of our kitchen, which was renovated in 2022. I spent a long time planning it until it looked the way I imagined it. When I drink my first coffee here in the morning with a view of the garden, I know that the day can only be good. My favorite thing to do is to go on a dyke hike directly from the house to the "Red Pile". From here you have a breathtaking view of the islands of Norderney and Juist.
