Die 4 Übernachtungen im Ferienhaus Apfelbaum haben uns richtig gut gefallen. Krinau ist ein süßer kleiner Ort mit tollem Dorfladen. Das Haus war für unsere Bedürfnisse sehr gut ausgestattet, insbesondere die Küche hatte alles, was es zum Kochen braucht. Die Ausstattung ist reduziert aber sehr gemütlich. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt.
Es war warm und gemütlich. Nach ein paar Stunden mit Kachelofen war es in der Stube allerdings warm wie eine Sauna 😉
Wir sind dann aufs Schlafzimmer ausgewichen.
