    The accommodation is clean and nice. The Host replied massages quickly. He also has a lot of information about a town. The fee is affordable. There were fresh raspberries and nice trees in the yard.

    A friendly and helpful host with deep knowledge of the area. The cabin is well set up, with a mini-fridge and microwave. Very cosy inside, with a nice space to relax outdoors, weather permitting. Easy distance to the Millenium walking/biking...

You must climb up a ladder to access the loft. The futon can accommodate 2 persons. This little cabine is equipped with a mini-fridge. Linen and towels included with access to the common area inside the house as you wish. You also have access to the yard, bicycle rack, patio, picnic table and the BBQ. Motorcycles are NOT welcome. We are also featured on the great VRBO site. Coffee and tea is free in the kitchen. Wifi in the north is not unlimited, please limit to emails and minimal browsing.
