Wunderschöner Aufenthalt

Das Haus ist sehr geschmackvoll und liebevoll eingerichtet, die technischen Einrichtungen funktionieren bestens, die Internetverbindung erwies sich als gut genug für eine Online-Konferenz, die Aussicht vom Balkon ist herrlich, eine sagenhaft gute Taverne ( Golden Cage) ist zwei Minuten zu Fuß entfernt, die nächtliche Stille ohne Motorengeräusche ist sehr entspannend, und die Kommunikation mit Julie war reizend, überaus herzlich und hilfreich. Der Aufenthalt hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Jederzeit wieder!!
