    The location was only a 5 minute walk from the town and there were plenty of places to eat close by as well as a bakery next door. The campsite was small but ‘cosy’ with a lovely countryside view at the back of the property. The facilities for cooking and laundry were very good. The swimming pool and hot tubs looked inviting.

    Host is friendly. The location is beautiful, minutes away from the city centre. The cottage is clean. My boys love playing in the field right outside our cottage. The hot tub is very near to our cottage. It is like a sauna that is quite enjoyable during the cold days.
