Close to birdwatching, cycling, and more, this welcoming vacation home brings it all within reach. There's convenient onsite parking, so you can leave your vehicle behind and let your feet make short work of the 10-minute walk to Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park or the 15-minute walk to Seashell museum.

This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom rental features a BBQ grill and a fireplace. Connect to the free WiFi, or get cozy in front of the cable/satellite TV; there's also a DVD player and a stereo. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, a microwave, and cookware. And thanks to the washer and dryer, you'll even be able to travel light. Other amenities include an ironing board, a phone, heating, and a dining table.
