Deze charmante boerderij in Balkbrug is een verborgen juweeltje. De gezellige slaapkamers en ruime woonkamer maakten ons verblijf comfortabel, vooral met de houtkachel die ons warm hield op koude nachten.

Redelijk schoon; vreemd dat als je extra energie verbruikt omdat je gebruik maakt van de sauna en bubbelbad je in een lang weekend nog een fikse rekening krijgt voor overmatig energieverbruik. Voorts was het bubbelbad niet schoon.

Heerlijk weekje weg. Leuk huisje met alle gemakken voorzien. Wellness was heerlijk (geen gebruik van de sauna gemaakt wel de hottub). Bedden waren goed. Met ons gezelschap waren de slaapkamers prima... maar misschien ern overweging om de beschrijving van de slaapkamers te herzien. In huidige beschrijving (en fotos) hadden we niet verwacht dat je door de ene slaapkamers moest om bij de andere te komen. Al met al heerlijk weekje. Oh ja, eigenaar via telefoon en app ook zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

We hebben ontzettend genoten van ons weekje vol luxe plus een beetje meer! De verhuurder is super aardig en meedenkend. Erg prettig! Er zijn 8 volwaardige bedden en een kinderledikant. Er staat een grote koel vriescombinatie extra naast het tafelmodel koelkast in de keuken. Super fijn om alles koel te houden en ijsjes te kunnen opbergen. Een prachtige tuin waar onze kids heerlijk hebben kunnen spelen. Het huis ligt heerlijk vrij in de omgeving. Er zijn ontzettend veel prachtige vlinders in de tuin en de vliegen en muggen weten ook hun weg te vinden. Ik zou zeker een vliegenmepper meenemen. Kortom, grote aanrader om hier te verblijven!
