Comment from Philippa Burne
If it’s the picture-postcard Holland of women in traditional floral dresses, striped pinafores and pointed white lace caps and men in baggy, woolen breeches that you’re after then it’s to Volendam that you need to travel. This is a small fishing village on the shores of the IJsselmeer (the IJ), just near that famous cheese town Edam.
