Perfect in every way!

This comfortable, well equipped haven, set in the most tranquil of valleys gave our three days away something extra special. In addition to a beautifully furnished house with its two patio areas, the owner had laid on little extra touches with such thoughtfulness it made our little family reunion really special. We'll be back!

Geweldig locatie als je rust zoekt!

Het huis is nieuw, fris, comfortabel, van alle gemakken voorzien en het ligt vooral op een prachtige locatie. De eigenaresse woont in het aangrenzende huis maar je hebt eigen ingang, tuin en ze geeft je alle privacy.
