Un gustazo de casa de principio a fin. Nada mas llegar ya nos dimos cuenta de que habíamos acertado porque Amanda es un encanto. Todo facilidades y con una sonrisa en la cara. La casa calentita y super acogedora. Localización y acceso muy cómodo y el tamaño de la casa y de las habitaciones también. Camas comodas y ducha con agua caliente y buena presión. La casa por dentro es muy acogedora y la zona exterior es impresionante. Aunque fuera Enero comimos en el patio exterior y con el sol calentando y escuchando los pájaros la desconexion y relax es total. Hay muchos y caminos y rutas para andar por zona de bosque cerca que son preciosos. Volveremos!!
Todo estupendo, cómodo, limpio, no faltaba un detalle. La propietaria es encantadora. Todo son facilidades. El entorno precioso para hacer excursiones y relajarse. Sin duda volveremos en temporada de más calor para probar esa piscina maravillosa Recomendable 100%Recién
