Little things that make a difference


At De Oude Huize Yard, we offer accommodation with a difference. 
Our furniture is historica, each piece with its own story to tell.
Our rooms are unique and each tells its own story.  

It's the little details that are vital.  
Little things make big things happen.
-John Wooden

Taps with a difference

Special 

Bird cage and flowers 

Entrance hall with antique golf set, hat and cloves 

Santos Dolls and Roses 

Pillow, keys and a little lock 

Soap set given to my Gran on a special occasion in 1936

Part of a costume from the musical Carmen 

Old military boots during my hubbies air force days 

Just to say we're ok

My handmade quilt on a guest room bed 

Queen Ann for heating in a guest room 

Little scape books and old handles

Shoes made for walking - the good old days 
The front door is always open to everyone. 

We will be have a wonderful time at the following wonderful parties.

  8. Hi Sandra, what a beautiful place you have! And so full of antique flavour... I could live there too! (in fact having a B&B in the country or by the sea has been my dream for years...) Thanks for visiting my blog and for your sweet comment, you´ll be always welcome.
    Hugs,
    K.
