The house is 25 minutes by bike from the center of Amsterdam, outside of all the hustle and in a lovely green area called "het Tuinen van West" (the Western Gardens). We have a sunny garden with fruit trees and flowers, and the house is light and comfortable. There are sleeping arrangements for a up to 4, kids ok. I have indoor plants which will need water once or twice a week.
We have one dog, a 4 year-old black lab mix. We walk her twice a day, usually morning and evenings. There are many green areas around here so the walks are quite nice. It would be great if you have a bit of experience training dogs to establish good recall with her. She is not aggressive at all, rather she can get nervous sometimes with external stimulants (like when a motor scooter passes on the path, and bigger dogs) and it's good to know how to distract her and maintain her calm. I can outline all of this in detail, it's not too complicated. Playing with a ball is her favorite thing and I use this to train her. She's very loving in general and is always very affectionate with people, so you will have good company!
There is never a shortage of things to do in Amsterdam in the summer, between music and food festivals, museums, tours and cultural events. I am happy to give you any tips for what's on if you're interested, otherwise it's great to enjoy a relaxing time in the garden!
