Beautiful and comfortable

We enjoyed our stay very much. Only thing it would be nice to have more kitchen items. I know most people eat out but for us we wanted to dine in one night. But we worked it out. Two towels only was a challenge and no coffee, no dishwasher or laundry pods. That would have been a great bonus to have. I think overall nice.

We hebben 5 nachten verbleven in chalet 16. De ontvangst was erg vriendelijk en gastvrij. Het chalet zelf was ruim, en van alle nodige middelen voorzien, Een compliment daarvoor. Iets minder vonden wij het gebrek aan privacy rondom het chalet. Daarnaast was de nare geur in het chalet. Dit hebben we gemeld. Naar later bleek was er een leiding onder het chalet stuk. Deze is meteen gerepareerd.waarvoor onze dank. Maar de stank bleef helaas wel in het chalet hangen tijdens ons verblijf. Verder hebben we een fijn verblijf gehad.

Tolle Unterkunft

Total gemütlich und urig Unterkunft mit schönen Möglichkeiten draußen zu sitzen. Wunderschöne Lage mit Blick auf die Grachten. Die Vermieterin ist sehr herzlich, wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. Das tolle Frühstück wurde in eine ganz besondere Zimmer mit viel Atmosphäre serviert auch hier hatten wir wieder den schönen Ausblick.
