Gaasterland is a unique landscape of gentle slopes, broad-leaf forests close to the shore of the IJsselmeer, the largest central lake in the Netherlands. 

Here you can find the Mirns Estate, which is a collection of modern buildings around a central court yard. The whole estate has a total size of 9.9 acres (42.000m²). It is situated in a sloping landscape with green pastures and view on the IJsselmeer.

Mirns is close to the old Frisian villages of Lemmer and Stavoren.

From Mirns to Amsterdam or Utrecht is an hour and fifteen minutes by car.
