The cottage is simple, but has everything you need. Some things a little different from home, but as far as I'm concerned, that's partly the charm of vacation.
Het huisje is eenvoudig, maar heeft alles wat je nodig hebt. Sommige dingen wat anders dan thuis, maar dat is wat mij betreft ook deels de charme van vakantie.
We had 2 wonderful weeks in this cottage in the middle of nature and by the water. Not very luxurious, but everything is there and very comfortable. In the area there is much to do and see. A beautiful area to discover. In short, cottage, place and environment make it worth coming back again.
We hebben 2 heerlijke weken gehad in dit huisje middenin de natuur en aan het water. Niet heel luxe, maar alles is aanwezig en heel comfortabel. In de omgeving is veel te doen en te zien. Een prachtig gebied om te ontdekken. Kortom, huisje, plek en omgeving maken het waard om nog een keer terug te komen.

Due to lack of info on heating (accumulation) a difficult first evening.... Old house with all the necessary comforts.
Door het ontbreken van info over de verwarming (accumulatie) een moeilijke eerste avond.... Oud huis met alle benodigde comfort.
After finding the house, everything went smoothly
na het vinden van het huis is alles vlot verlopen

Furnishing basic, but all the necessary comforts are present. Location is fantastic.
Inrichting basic, maar alle nodige comfort aanwezig.
Ligging is fantastisch.Beautiful place. A little paradise. Totally peaceful and yet within walking distance of stores.
Prachtige plek. Een klein paradijsje. Helemaal rust en toch op wandelafstand van winkels.
