Emplacement top mais inadapté enfants bas âge et personne à mobilité reduite
Gîte sympathique très bien situé mais il manque une précision sur l annonce
Escalier raide sans rembarde donc pas adapté aux enfants surtout en bas âge et aux personnes à mobilité réduite
Cela devrait être précisé (surtout si accident récent)

Great location BUT......... House poorly managed. It needs some TLC both inside & outside; several items were broken or dangerous, like the slippery shower & electric kettle without a lid! With Long COVID the 40 steps up from the road & 10 minutes walk to get the car were not fun!
Das schöne Haus ist sehr ruhig gelegen und dabei sehr zentral. Der Parkplatz ist zwar nicht direkt vor der Haustür. Aber wir fanden es nicht schlimm, ein paar Meter laufen zu müssen.
Zum Haus gehört ein relativ großer Garten, teils schattig, teils sonnig.
Die Betten sind gut. Die Dachfenster in den Schlafzimmern lassen sich sehr gut verdunkeln.
Die Ausstattung ist vollständig, nur sollten einige Töpfe und Pfannen durch neue ersetzt werden (Beschichtung defekt).
Das Ferienhaus hat eine ideale Lage, in Stadtnähe, aber ruhig. Wir haben abends die Terrasse genossen. Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin war sehr gut. Es gibt einen Punkt Abzug, da im deutschen Inserat nicht drinsteht, dass für Bettwäsche und Handtücher eine Pauschale anfällt und der öffentliche Parkplatz ca. 200 m entfernt ist. WiFi wäre noch schön. Ansonsten aber zu empfehlen.
