    Quietly located within extensive garden with lot's of trees and birds, giving impression we were in the midst of a forest even though the accommodation was practically located within town. Comfortably appointed, everything one needs for a simple holiday home, abundant space, high quality toiletries, beautiful posters and well-taken photos in living rooms. Excellent selection of TV programmes. Friendly host. PS: This reviewer is biased because he likes nature, trees, birds, gardening, and landscape photography.
