Schönes und stets kühles Haus
Ein sehr schönes, altes, gut ausgestattetes Haus! Der Eigentümer kümmert sich rasch um jedes auftretende Problem. Die Zimmer sind schön und ansprechend eingerichtet. Die Küche verfügt über alles was man braucht und es gibt ausreichend Terrassen um zu jeder Tages- und Nachtzeit einen schönen Rückzugsort zu finden. Und die Sonnenuntergänge sind immer wieder malerisch. Lediglich die Zufahrt zum Haus ist wirklich herausfordernd und beschwerlich; man braucht schon einigen Mut um sie zu bezwingen! Wir würden gern wiederkommen, denn auch das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt. Danke für den wunderschönen Aufenthalt. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Fantastisch huis.
Geweldig huis op bijzondere locatie, midden in de natuur. Doordat het wat hoger is gelegen is de temperatuur in de zomer aangenaam. Het is een oud familiehuis en dat is zichtbaar in de inrichting. Alles is in ruime mate aanwezig! Klein verbeterpuntje: de koelkast is aan vervanging toe. Prachtig uitzicht vanaf de terrassen. De toegangsweg is niet gemakkelijk, maar met een niet al te lage auto lukt het wel tussen de rotsen door te laveren. Suggestie: een oude terreinwagen beschikbaar stellen aan de gasten voor het vervoer over het pad vanaf de weg. In de directe omgeving hebben wij geen levendige dorpjes gezien, maar Florence is goed te bereiken. Wij komen graag nog eens terug!

Ein traumhafter Platz zum Entspannen
Eine traumhafte Villa mit viel Platz! Wir hatten eine wunderbare entspannte Zeit hier. Die Gastgeber waren immer für uns erreichbar und sehr hilfsbereit. Der Weg durch Wald und Feld zur Villa ist ein wenig holperig, aber für einen normalen PKW kein allzugroßes Problem. Ich würde jederzeit wieder kommen.
