Propriétaire charmante de très bon conseil pour visiter la région
Barque à disposition pour promenade sur les canaux
Logement parfait et très fonctionnel
Logement très bien situé....près du port fluvial...la mise à disposition des embarcations est un plus...les propriétaires sont sympas(merci Carlos pour les légumes).Le gros problème est la présence de nombreuses mouches dans le logement (ceci est sans doute dû au bac à compost trop près de l'habitation!!!).
