Ook onze 2 kinderen (jongens 5 en 7) werden hierin zeker niet vergeten. Er is een airhockey tafel, een grote tuin met speelhuisje, veel spelletjes en als klap op de vuurpijl mochten ze elke dag de 2 ezels voeren die er naast staan in het weiland. Voor hen was de vakantie daardoor bij de start al geslaagd. Daarnaast is het gehele huis ruim opgezet met mooie ruime kamers en heerlijke bedden. Buiten is een heerlijke overkapping waar wij elke dag heerlijk van ons zelf gemaakte ontbijt en avond eten hebben genoten. De ligging van het appartement is ideaal op 20 a 25 minuten rijden is er van alles te doen voor kinderen, daarnaast beginnen er op een kleine 10 minuutjes rijden al van allerlei wandelroutes maar wandel je ook zo vanaf het appartement al de bossen in. Kortom wij hebben echt genoten van onze vakantie en ons vakantiehuis. Een groot compliment ook voor onze gastheer die het huisje verhuurd. Zeer prettig in omgang en bij vragen of andere zaken staat hij meteen voor je klaar. Bedankt namens ons en onze kinderen 😀 PERFECT 😀😃🙂 ##### Stefan D.
