    Great location, very friendly and welcoming hosts, pet friendly. Parking slot is for an additional fee. Good breakfast in the garden. The house is very special. It doesn’t suitable for you if you are a fan of five stars hotels, but definitely...

    I like how natural this property was. It is actually a home with rooms like a hotel. The owners are delightful and the food homemade. The rooms are very comfortable.
