Sehr liebevoll eingerichtetes, schönes, großes Cottage. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter war unkompliziert und sehr nett. Die Umgebung ist sehr ruhig und schön. Ein Ort zum Abschalten und den Trubel zu entgehen. Es gibt in der Umgebung viele Möglichkeiten zum Wandern und auch für Kids zum Entdecken.
