    Repairs are needed in several places

    Landlord’s response:
    Thank you for your feedback.

    We’re sorry to hear that your stay didn’t fully meet your expectations.

    Regarding accessibility: it was clearly stated to you in advance that the property consists of different levels and multiple flights of stairs. For someone who is completely dependent on a wheelchair, assistance and support are indeed necessary.

    In a large vacation rental that is rented out almost continuously, there may unfortunately be minor issues that need to be repaired from time to time. We try to have these addressed as quickly as possible, depending on the availability of professionals. These are not issues that significantly hinder your stay.

    We certainly take your comments regarding cleanliness and lighting to heart and will check them again.

    Plenty of space, but loooads of stairs: a problem for our guest with limited mobility. It took a lot of help to “lift” her from one room to another; even the ground-floor bedroom was separated from the bathroom/toilet by four stairs and was inaccessible to her!!!!
    Furthermore, it wasn’t 100 percent clean, so after we cleaned up, we left it cleaner than it was when we checked in. Several light fixtures were also broken, so we had to make do with the multiple floor lamps that were available.

    We stayed in the cottage with 17 people the first weekend and with 9 people the following days. The cottage is big enough for a large group, but you do have to be comfortable sharing rooms. There are several seating areas, making it easy to gather in smaller groups, but there’s also plenty of space for the whole group to sit on the couches or eat together at the table. The kitchen is a bit small, but thanks to the extra refrigerator in the pantry, the air fryer, oven, and 4-burner stove with large pots, it’s perfectly possible to cook for large groups. Unfortunately, there’s only one cutting board available.
    On rainy days, we had a great time with the pool table, table tennis table, and sauna. There are also two whirlpool tubs (one reclining tub, one sitting tub), but unfortunately, the jets in the reclining tub weren’t working. Thanks to the sauna, however, we didn’t really need them.
    The pool with lounge chairs and the field behind it with swings is wonderful for hot days!

    Response from the host:
    Thank you for your review and feedback. We’ll make sure to provide additional cutting boards and have the jets checked as soon as possible. You’re always welcome!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Even though the nature house is located in a small village and has neighbors, you still get a sense of peace and freedom. The village is very quiet, and the woods and the river are just a short walk away.
    The surroundings are beautiful, and thanks to its spacious interior and outdoor areas, the cabin is perfect for use in any weather.

    For the price, you simply have to expect more. The house gives off a run-down and unfinished impression. Some of the rooms are haphazardly furnished and, partly for this reason, seem to serve no purpose. It gives the impression of a youth hostel that has seen better days. Some rooms have no natural light (the ground-floor bedroom facing the street).

    The pool has no lighting aside from a quartz spotlight that is very glaring in the evening. The pool cover itself and the mechanism for rolling it up and down are old and, in some places, badly damaged and rusty. The stones around the pool are loose.

    The property surrounding the house looks somewhat neglected. We swept it ourselves after arriving.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The surroundings of the house were very pleasant. It’s in an incredibly quiet and green location. Although the house is right next to other properties, you can’t really hear or see much of the neighbors. The starry sky is phenomenal.

    Landlord’s response:
    The property is an authentic, well-maintained historic building that is about 350 years old, which is why its character and interior cannot be compared to a modern vacation rental. Practical details such as light switches, bedding, and how to use the property were communicated in advance. The unusually dry weather was the reason the garden had dried out. The temporarily repaired pool cover (pending delivery of a new, custom-made cover) and the special tile installation (not glued or traditionally grouted, so that water can drain away easily) were also deliberate choices and were explained in advance.
