    Schöne Unterkunft

    Tolle Lage! Prima Betten! Uns hat die Veranda sehr gefallen! Es war ruhig und gemütlich!

    Auch wenn vorab vom Host geklärt ist, dass keine Küche da ist: der „Ersatz“ ist einfach kein Ersatz! An allen Ecken und Enden wird ein Spülbecken, ein größerer Kühlschrank, eine Arbeitsplatte vermisst! Auf dem Tisch wirkt das Ganze sehr improvisiert und sehr unbefriedigend!

    A beautiful property - would be very happy to stay here again. Wished we could have stayed longer.

    The host was excellent in terms of communication. Everything was as expected. The location is amazing and the view is absolutely stunning. It was in the middle of winter and it was so warm inside including the bathroom. We thought we would need a heater as the outside temperature was very low with a frost. But we were very warm. We really appreciated the hosts allowing us to check in early as we were attending a funeral - this was very kind of them.

    Just need to be aware that access to the unit is down some stairs at the side of the house which may be an issue for elderly people or people with poor mobility. A handrail would be helpful. We were very please that security lights came on at night so that we could see the path and steps.
