The house itself, quite large, rustic, but with a very nice luxury shower and sink. Top, hear!!! An ideal fenced garden, (full of beautiful flowers) for our labrador "Thor" It also reminded us of the past, because there is less traffic, including from the yard. The sound of mooing cows, seeing so much forest around us. Everything within minutes from this beautiful location. Also the village with neighborhood supermarket, butcher, bakery, and top ice cream store!!! Where you also for a nice bakkie with pastries, or sandwiches can eat. Sosss, highly recommended! Greetings Bas, Astrid and Thor, van Rooijen
