Very nice owner. Everything you need is there, but it could use some maintenance and cleaning.
Hele aardige eigenaar. Wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig, maar het verdient wel wat onderhoud/schoonmaak.
Beautiful surroundings.
Mooie omgeving.

That's perfectly fine with us because everything is on one level
Voor ons heel ok omdat alles gelijksvloers is
Simple, no frills, but everything you need is there for two people.
There’s air conditioning, which came in very handy with the heat we’re having right now.
Paul is a helpful host—still a little shy, but that’s part of the charm.
For us, it was a lovely, peaceful location with shady spots, birds chirping early in the morning, and a chorus of frogs in the evening.
In short, we had a great time.
Thank you, Paul.Simpel, geen luxe maar al wat je nodig hebt is er voor 2 pers.
Er is airco die nu met de hitte heel goed van pas kwam .
Paul is een behulpzame verhuurder, nog klein beetje onwennig maar dat maakt het mooi.
Voor ons was het een mooie , rustige locatie met schaduwplekjes,vroege fluitende vogels, savonds kikkerconcert.
Kortom, wij hebben ons geamuseerd.
Dank u Paul.This text is automatically translated.
