Vielen Dank für die tolle Bewertung - und vielleicht mal wieder demnächst in einer der im Bau befindlichen Ferienwohnungen.
Es war wunderschön, wir sind tiefenentspannt. Sehr ruhige Gegend, schön ländlich, viele Wanderwege. Die Wohnung war ein Traum, wir sind zu 100% begeistert. Gerne wieder :)
Wir haben zu viert die Saunawohnung gebucht und sind völlig begeistert; unglaublich durchdachte Wohnung, bis in alle Einzelheiten sehr hochwertig ausgestattet und das Bad mit Sauna und Whirlpool ist ein Traum.
Wir kommen sicher wieder, dann aber länger!
Wir haben uns zu zweit eine spontane Auszeit gegönnt um dem Winter und dem Schmuddelwetter im Januar zu entfliehen - und haben uns die Saunawohnung mit Whirlpool zum entspannen und relaxen gemietet. Und wir hätten nichts Besseres machen können, auch kein teures Beauty- und Wellnessresort hätte dieses kleine, exklusiv und sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtete Wohnung toppen können: tagsüber eine kleine Wanderung in der Sächsischen Schweiz, dann Glühwein getrunken und ein kleines Abendessen in der vollausgestatteten Küche gezaubert und anschließend in Sauna und Whirlpool gutgehen lassen - was will das Herz mehr. 5 Sterne reichen eigentlich nicht - aber mehr stehen leider nicht zur Verfügung!
Wir hatten die Saunawohnung im Dachgeschoss mit Sauna+Whirlwanne im Bad. Sehr stilvoll eingerichtet und alles da, was man braucht. Man kann sich alle Optionen einzeln buchen oder auch sparen indem man z.b. eigene Bettwäsche mitbringt - super! Ein- und Auschecken funktioniert dank Schlüsseltresor super easy und unkompliziert. Gerne wieder!
