Wohnung ist klein aber schön hat all das notwendige was man braucht. Die Lage ist sehr schön, pure Natur, Berge und Wälder, man kann wandern jeden Tag. WLAN ist gut, ohne Probleme. Jean-Marc der Besitzer ist nett . Würde wieder kommen
Die Decke über dem Bett ist niedrig. Da muss man ein wenig aufpassen. Es ist dort schön ruhig und kühl (wir waren im Juli dort). Es ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen, und eine sehr schöne Gegend. Sehr symphatischer Vermieter.

Vielen Dank für Ihren Kommentar. Die Wohnung ist 3m70 hoch, dadurch gab es die Möglichkeit die 9m2 Mezzanine einzubauen, die 1m51 hoch ist. Mehr ging leider nicht, aber dadurch konnten wir viel Platz gewinnen.
Herzliche Grüsse, Sie sind jederzeit wieder willkommen !
