Agreement on the renovation of and new construction at the Wiidpleats
On Wednesday, May 15, the municipality of Tytsjerksteradiel and project developer Zwanenburg signed a preliminary agreement for the renovation of the Wiidpleats in Earnewâld. Now the zoning plan can be adjusted and approved. After that, the project developer can start with the renovation of the Wiidpleats and the new construction of recreational homes.
Great collaboration for a tourism boost
Project developer Zwanenburg plans to renovate the old Wiidpleats in part. The catering facilities will be improved and 30 hotel rooms will be added to the building. In addition, there will be 19 recreational homes. The area between the hotel and the recreational homes will become a green area with a terrace. "This development fits within our ambition to grow as a tourist municipality," explains Alderman Berber van Zandbergen. Owner Erik Zwanenburg is proud of the active cooperation to make the Wiidpleats beautiful again: "Together with the municipality of Tytsjerksteradiel, we have sought connection with Dorpsbelang Eernewoude, surrounding Owners Associations and the residents of Earnewâld to give the village a boost in the field of recreation and tourism. We are now looking forward to the realization.”
History of Wiidpleats
De Wiidpleats is located in the middle of the It Wiid recreation area in Earnewâld, surrounded by the campsite and bungalow park. Former owner It Fryske Gea used to run educational programs and excursions to the Alde Feanen National Park from here. Before that, the Agricultural Museum was located in the farm.
