Sonja August 15, 2025 General rating:Very nice week had in the house with great location.
Hele fijne week gehad in het huis met geweldige ligging.
Nature, peace & environment:Nice quiet place with beautiful garden. The house itself is also very nice and everything is there. Furnishing we found charming and authentic. It is not very modern. Stairs to upstairs bedrooms are steep so it is not convenient for everyone. There is a bedroom downstairs.
Mooie rustige plek met prachtige tuin. Het huis zelf is ook heel leuk en alles is aanwezig. Inrichting vonden wij charmant en authentiek. Het is niet heel modern. Trap naar slaapkamers boven is steil dus dat is niet voor iedereen handig. Er is een slaapkamer beneden.

Alles prima!
Nature, peace & environment:We had a wonderful week, the garden was wonderful to stay there with children, the cottage simple but very comfortable. A welcoming place!
We hadden een heerlijke week, de tuin was zalig om er met kinderen te verblijven, het huisje eenvoudig maar zeer gerieflijk. Een gastvrije plek!
