Nice spot on the lake

We stayed for 3 nights and loved the location! The check in process involved a form and uploading of ID which was a little off putting and possibly due to bad experiences with previous tenants. The coffee machine was also broken when we arrived and make sure you bring all your essentials - milk , tea coffee etc. The bed was super comfortable and the location right on the lake is superb. I ran with the dog by the lake and he loved it. Also great for cycling and you can hire a boat if you’re feeling adventurous.
