    Een aanrader!
    We werden hartelijk ontvangen door Jo en Nick, buitengewoon aardig en behulpzaam. Het huis was schoon en comfortabel, ruim voldoende voor zes volwassenen. Alle gemakken voorzien in en rondom het huis. Helaas was het weer matig maar er is een overdekt zwembad , een extra ruimte waar o.a gepoold kan worden en het terrein is ruim genoeg voor andere activiteiten. Ook in de omgeving is er veel bezienswaardig, kortom een fijn verblijf!
