Comfortable
A nice and clean cottage with a very friendly hostess. Kitchen is well equipped and suitable for 8 persons. Plenty of spoons, dishes and so on. Parking space for 2 to 3 cars. 2 separate living rooms with a lot of space, literature and games. Outside lies a terrace near a waterfall. Romantic, but a bit noisy. We were very satisfied with the cottage.
Trotz des durchzogenen Wetters haben wir unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Das Haus ist liebevoll und gemütlichceingerichtet, die Betten sind bequem und die Küche ideal mit Geschitt für 8 Hungrige... Der Garten ist paradiesisch schön und die Brück über den Bach von der wir den grossen Krebs beobachtet haben ist macht den Ort perfekt. Auch unserem Hund Sarmos,hat es git gefallen und er genoss die Spaziergänge über die weiten Feöder der Region.
Insgesamt gibt es gar nichts zu Beanstanden und wir können es vorbehaltslos weiterempfehlen.
Ein wunderschönes Haus mit einem zauberhaften Garten. Super freundliche Vermieter, die uns mit vielen Tipps für Ausflüge versorgt haben. Kommen jederzeit gerne wieder
