Good stay, an investment in new beds would make a big difference in the experience.
By Thor on 25-Aug-2024Things that were great : The friendly and helpful owners, Wifi connection, good fridge with integrated freezer, parking in front of the door, fresh towels & bed linen included, quiet village, remains relatively cool indoors in warm weather, spacious house. Not so great : Well, if I'm gonna mention something that didn't work out... -the beds, these have no slats, but a good pocket spring mattress, which makes up for a lot. I don't want to mention anything else. Comment from owners 2025 : we have invested in a brand new quality king size bed and guests are very happy !
