"Stunning cottage in beautiful surroundings, the perfect getaway."

10.0

Beautiful cottage in a stunning peaceful location. If you want to escape the rat race this spacious cottage will more than meet your expectations. Cosy ambience, log burner, and stunning views from the balcony. We didn’t want for anything and the hosts even provided dog treats which was a lovely touch. We will definitely be returning to this cute cottage.

Nothing.

Very nice and comfortable cottage for a resonable pice

If you book from home from a desktop it is probably no big issue, but if you book from the road in the next village with actually no internet or phone connection in general, it can give you a hard time to get the keys! It took me almost 3 h to get the keys out of the locker, because they need a deposit viva credit card, that was unfortunately not possible, because of an web page error (tried it with 3 different credit cards). I found 1m² on the property to call the landlord (which seems to be a quite big company with lot's of apartments) and they provided an email adress to transfer the deposit via PayPal (after quite a few discussions). Later, after ~ 3 weeks, it was pretty challenging to get the deposit back, because nobody was able to recall that transaction.
