Entspannter Familienurlaub
Und hat es hier richtig gut gefallen. Das Haus ist wunderbar, schön gestaltete Zimmer, top ausgestattete Küche. Wir haben uns über den großen Tisch gefreut, der zum gemeinsamen Essen mit der ganzen Gruppe einlädt und über den Ofen im Wohnzimmer, der einfach ein gemütliches Ambiente schafft. Die Natur draußen ist toll und die Ruhe ringsum sehr entspannend. Auch vor dem Haus und auf der Wiese gibt's ausreichend Sitzmöglichkeiten, Platz für die Kinder zum toben und mit dem Whirlpool ein bisschen Luxus. Die Gastgeberin ist sehr herzlich und wir haben uns willkommen gefühlt. Gerne kommen wir wieder.

Tolles Haus in ruhiger, ländlicher Umgebung
Unser Aufenthalt mit insgesammt 12 Personen war für uns alle ein tolles Erlebniss. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man sich vorstellen kann. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber, die Betten bequem. Einige Zimmer haben sogar ein eigenes Bad/WC. Außen gibt es mehrere Terassen, eine Tischtennisplatte, einen Whirlpool etc. Für alles ist gesorgt. Die Vermieterin, Gabrielle, ist sehr nett, zuvorkommend und jederzeit ansprechbar. Auch schon im Vorfeld war die Kommunikation hervorragend. Wir hätten keinen schöneren Ort für unser Familienwochenende finden können.

Sehr schöner Kurzurlaub
Wir sind rundum zufrieden. Die Vermieterin ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Haus ist am Ende einer schmalen Straße und liegt sehr ruhig. Häufig kommen Wanderer vorbei. Ist absolut weiter zu empfehlen.
