Best stay ever

Highly recommend this cute comfortable and very homely batch which had equate supply of everything anyone will need. It was home away from home. We enjoyed our stay and looking forward to come back again. Our shih tzu enjoyed the secured yard. Kids had a great time.

Cozy House

The area and the house are very cozy. The dining room and the balcony welcomed us with a nice sunshine. The house has everything you need (BBQ, HeatPump, Oven, WiFi, TV, etc) and is located meters from the lake. I highly recommend this place if you want to stay on a quiet town.

Fabulous Cottage!

Janna's cottage is so clean and tidy, perfect! everything we needed., lots of fluffy towels, even condiments in the fridge. Our italian greyhounds were welcomed too. The backyard is fully fenced so was.a god send for us dog owners. Close to the lake, very quiet and a lovely sized get away, Bbq on the deck, was a great stay we will be back.
