Free parking is available outside the historic city center.

Where you’ll be
Our apartment is situated in the historic city center of Leiden ( 3 minutes cycling to Breestraat or 4 minutes cycling to Haarlemmerstraat - main shopping streets). French bakery, traditional fish shop & flowers are just around the corner. There are many student houses around, so the atmosphere is nice. The apartment is situated on the first floor of house-monument. There is no garden, but we have a very beautiful park Plantsoen in front- so it is nice for running, reading book or having a picnic.

Getting around
The supermarket is 20 meters away from the house. 100 meters in front, there is a beautiful park - Plantsoen - with a track to run, benches for a picnic, a small Aviary (bird zoo), and a playground for kids. For snacks or takeaway dinner, there is a very nice fish shop at block corner. If you want to try Dutch traditional food ask for Kibbeling and, if you are adventurous, ask for herring. For fresh bread, there is a french bakery behind the house. You are in the historic city center, so there are dozen of restaurants, bars, and snack bars around.
