Herzlichen Dank für die freundliche Begrüßung in diesem wunderbaren Cottage an die Gastgeber. Selbst an das Osterfest wurde gedacht. Das Cottage ist liebevoll gestaltet und lässt keine Wünsche offen. Alles sehr sauber und komfortabel. Die Betten sind super. Check In völlig unkompliziert. Über den Kontakt zu Laura und Steven können wir nichts sagen, da wir keiner Hilfe bedurften.
