About

Horsmeertjes, on Texel, sits at 1797 SB Den Hoorn in the Netherlands, on the island's southern side. Den Hoorn is one of the villages on Texel, with Den Burg, De Koog, Oudeschild, De Cocksdorp and Oosterend all within reach across the island.

First-time visitors to Horsmeertjes can expect a viewpoint in the dune landscape near Den Hoorn, where the surrounding terrain opens out toward the coast. Visitors have given the viewpoint a 4.1 out of 5 average across 14 reviews. Reaching the address from the main resorts and villages is straightforward, since Texel's road network connects Den Hoorn to Den Burg and the rest of the island.

Texel is one of the Dutch Wadden Islands, and the group has a maritime North Sea climate with mild summers and cool, changeable winters. Ferries run from Den Helder, Harlingen, Holwerd and Lauwersoog, with crossings of one to two hours, so arrival by sea is part of the trip.

Dutch is the main language, and Frisian is spoken on Terschelling and Schiermonnikoog, which matters little for a short visit but shapes the character of the islands. Island festivals, village weeks and markets fill the summer calendar, giving a stay on Texel plenty to fill the longer days.
