The perfect getaway

Highly recommended for anyone seeking peace and tranquility in the most beautiful natural surroundings. My cottage was beautiful, and had been lovingly restored to offer a very high standard of accommodation. The host Emma provided a service second to none. Very happy customer who will be returning to Natura Cottages.

Okay mit Einschränkungen

Als wir ankamen, waren wir zunächst etwas enttäuscht. Ja, wir wussten, dass das Cottage Teil einer Anlage ist, aber nirgendwo in der Beschreibung steht, dass es sich um eine Art „Reihenhaussiedlung" handelt. Man wohnt dicht an dicht mit den anderen Gästen. Wenn diese draußen vor ihren Häusern sitzen, muss jeder andere Gast auf dem schmalen Gang vorbeilaufen. Die „Terrasse“ des Hauses ist klein und überdacht. Man kann nachts nicht mal die Sterne sehen. Außerdem hat man immer nur Schatten. Es gibt keine Stelle, an der man sich einmal auch in die Sonne setzen könnte, geschweige denn Liegestühle. Okay, das Häuschen ist hübsch, rustikal und wirklich liebevoll eingerichtet wie man auf den Bildern sieht. Auch Maria, die alles sehr gut in Schuss hält, ist wirklich sehr nett und freundlich. Das WLAN funktionierte einwandfrei, man konnte problemlos auchFilme gucken. Noch einmal herkommen würden wir jedoch sicher nicht, zumal das Preisleistungsverhältnis überteuert ist.
