Three generations of family getting together to celebrate my wife’s 50th birthday. The house was perfect for a family gathering with superb open social areas and amazing panoramic views.
Raum, besonderer Komfort und überragendes Freizeitangebot
Erschöpft abends im Dunklen angereist, wurden wir mit einem Präsentkorb voller willkommener Leckereien überrascht. Am darauf folgenden Morgen überwältigte uns die Aussicht. Viele Stunden am Panoramafenster mit einer Tasse Tee und einem guten Buch in den überaus bequemen Stressless Sesseln und lange Spaziergänge in der direkten, reizvollen Umgebung im Wald und am Ufer waren pure Entspannung. Per PKW unternahmen wir interessante, sehenswerte Ausflüge in die weitere Umgebung. Ein Auto ist unbedingt empfehlenswert, da vor Ort keine Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind. Das Wetter war die ganze Woche über abwechslungsreich. Es gab von allem etwas. Bei unseren täglichen Outdooraktivitäten waren wir mit Regenkleidung und Zwiebellook bestens gerüstet. In den wenigen Stunden, die man zu Hause besser aufgehoben war, gibt es im Haus mit TV inclusive Netflix, X-Box, Wii, Tischtennis, Kicker und einer umfangreichen Spielesammlung vielfältige Freizeitangebote, die nie Langeweile aufkommen lassen. Die Betten sind sehr bequem, und die ruhige Umgebung fördert den erholsamen Schlaf zusätzlich. Die gut ausgestattete Küche lädt zum Kochen ein und am großen Esstisch kann man anschließend bequem essen.
Die Woche in Braesyde hat jeder und jedem von uns fünf Erwachsenen gut getan. Ich kann diese Unterkunft mit bestem Gewissen empfehlen.
