accessibility

Because we believed that everyone should be able to stay at “kop noch staart”, it was logical for us to adapt the building to the needs of people with a disability.

Our space has been adapted for someone with a disability, accompanied by a fellow traveler. (The kitchen is less accessible because the shape of the building and the old trusses did not allow proper adjustments to be made in the kitchen.)

Do you want to know if we meet your needs? Below this page you will find all the changes we have made. Is something not clear? We are happy to provide all necessary information.
