Great!

We really enjoyed our time @ this tiny home: it was cozy and very well decorated! You really feel like you're the only one in the world with all the space around you. The garden and surroundings are amazing and very spacious. The fact that the house has no electricity was a little bit of a surprise (found that out via another posting), but there is a battery available and we made it work! All in all: we enjoyed our time there a lot!

Traumhaus im Grünen

Wir haben eine wunderbare Woche mitten in der Natur verbracht. Wer die Stille vom menschengemachten Lärm wie Verkehr haben möchte, ist hier genau richtig. Den Tag kommen und gehen sehen, mitten auf einer Wiese, die uneinsehbar von außen ist. Ein kleines Häuschen, gut ausgestattet. Ein sehr freundliches Ehepaar betreibt diese gute. Beide sehr sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Sie haben für alles eine Lösung, einfach anrufen, sie kümmern sich am selben Tag. Wir haben gleich für das nächste Jahr wieder reserviert, dann 2 Wochen in dieser Idylle. Vielen Dank!

Kleines Haus in traumhaft schöner Landschaft

Wir durften eine wunderschöne Zeit in einer wirklich wunderschönen Gegend haben. Wir sind am Anreisetag recht spät angekommen, aber es war kein Problem, die Gastgeber haben alles ermöglicht, dass wir in das Haus konnten. Die Gastgeber sind sehr herzlich.und sehr nett! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt! Das Haus ist nicht besonders groß, enthält aber alles, was man benötigt: Schlafmöglichkeiten, ein Badezimmer und eine kleine Küche mit Kühlschrank und Backofen. Strom gibt es im Haus keinen, aber es sind ausreichend Laternen im Haus und auch draußen vorhanden, welche es erleuchten. Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt!
