Absolutely perfect! The hosts are so thoughtful and went above and beyond in anticipating your every need. The bed is huge and super comfortable, the kitchen is very well equipped and we loved the fresh eggs, bread, bacon and local wine! The jura coffee machine was an added bonus! The accommodation is close to town and wineries, all around 5-10 mins away. The cabin is super cosy, spacious and quiet. We are already planning our next visit and have recommended to all our friends!
