    Super vakantie, ideale woning/studio voor 2, 60m2, zeer uitgeruste keuken, leuk welkomspakket voor eerste ontbijt, proper, leuk om te zitten en mooi zwembad. Wij hadden supergeluk want zwembad was voor ons alleen, andere 2 gites waren niet verhuurd door Corona. Leuke buurt, maar je moet wel van de rust en natuur houden. En Ian, jouw mirabellen-gingerconfituur is verrukkelijk, wij kregen zelfs een extra potje mee. Bedankt.
