Eemswolde - How it began
|
A Bed & Breakfast was for neither of us a long-cherished dream. But the confluence of circumstances eventually led to our B&B that we are secretly proud of. We bought a tiny farm (tiny compared to 'Brabantse' farms) in Delft. The previous owner was a retired veterinarian and part of the property was an old clinic for pets. What should we do with all that space? A 'mancave', dance room, inhouse-cinema and other ideas didn't make it. In the end, only the idea of a B&B remained intact. After a number of drawings by top architects, many visits to the hardware store and shopping malls, and a large renovation by a top contractor, the B&B was finally a fact. Then the name for the B&B. We thought it would be nice to use a reference to the history of the area. Via Wikipedia we found out that Abtswoude is a degeneration of Popta's Wolde. That seemed a funny name for a B&B initially. But soon we found it a weird idea to call it to the settler Popta. This beautiful part of the 'woods' is not Poptas, but: Erwin & Marions, so 'Erwin en Marions Wolde'... Eemswolde. The rest is history in about 30 years ;-) |
