Restinn Warmenhuizen

At home at horticultural farm de Marlequi

Horticultural farm De Marlequi is owned and run by Koos and Margit Dekker. Together, they took over some 5 ha of land and a large cold store from Koos’s father in 1994. The business has undergone substantial changes, in terms of expansion and adjustments ever since. Today, the Dekker family of six lives and works here, on this beautiful rural location near the town of Warmenhuizen.

Sitting at one of the rustic picnic tables on the Dekker family yard, you can enjoy the splendid view of the Harenkarspel farmland. The growing of seasonal products being the main source of income, the farm itself hums with activity all year long. In springtime, you can find daffodils and potted grape hyacinths, whereas summer offers you fields of sunflowers and other outdoor cut flowers. Varieties of squash and ornamental cabbages or flowering kales are harvested in the fall. For further information, please check the website of the Marlequi (available in Dutch).

Things to explore

The – literally – picturesque artists’ village of Enigenburg, where the ever creative inhabitants produce wonderful art objects, is only two kilometers away. The remains of the Nuwendoorn citadel and the regional museum of Surmerhuizen are worth your visit as well. In short, plenty to do during your stay!
