"We've stayed in many self catering cottages and had a very different experience in this one. On VRBO the gite is advertised as having a lake view, its no where near a lake! After we'd paid for the gite the owner contacted us for €300 cash deposit, and told us about additional electricity charges per day. There was no mention of this on VRBO, so the owner waived the charge. We arrived at 4pm on a Sunday and immediately had to find a supermarket as no basics/welcome pack was provided e.g bread,...

"I wanted something different than the ordinary. I was struck by the photos and descriptions. Even though a wide angle lens was used, but I knew that. The house was nicely furnished with virtually all one could need in the kitchen. My sister and I are both over 70 and the stairs were a bit challenging as they were steep. The WC is on the bottom floor only so keep that in mind if you have any mobility issues. But that is very clear in the information. Our hostess was very kind and available!!...

"We spent 14 very relaxing days in the house of Severin and Frederic. The main house as well as the "chicken coop" have been prepared with great attention to detail and great effort. The kitchen is certainly expandable (dishwasher, full oven) but still absolutely sufficient, especially since outside a grill is available. The two hosts are very reserved, have great tips for exploring the area and are there when you need them. A house, highly recommended if you are looking for peace and...

"Der Aufenthalt litt unter Dauerregen, wofür die Gastgeber natürlich nichts konnten. Nur dafür ist das Appartment zu klein und unkomfortabel eingerichtet, das Terrassendach undicht und die Terrasse somt nicht nutzbar, die Sitzgelegenheiten unbequem und zum Trocknen der Sachen keine Hängemöglichkeiten. Die Küche auch nur äußerst sparsam bestückt. Ansonsten toller Garten, alles sauber, herrliche Vorgebirgslandschaft. Bei Sonnenschein sicher alles etwas positiver."

"Great"

"We enjoyed 2weeks of total relaxation"

"Literie très moyenne. Location de vacances plutôt pour été mais en hiver c’est pas très grand . Eau chauffant que la nuit et fin de journée plus d’eau chaude pour douche …."

"Very happy overall"

"We werden aangenaam ontvangen door de lieve gastvrouw ook al waren we vroeger dan afgesproken. Er was een vlotte communicatie. We genoten ook van de aangeboden verse eitjes. Het huisje is praktisch ingericht en de nodige voorzieningen om er een fijn verblijf van te maken zijn aanwezig. Echt een plek om tot rust te komen. Dankjewel voor de fijne dagen."

"As two families with 5 young children between us we wanted somewhere with things to do on site for them. We booked this property as we thought it would be a great place to stay for our children. It is described as a luxury holiday cottage, it is definitely not! We arrived after midnight (having informed the owner we would be arriving late) to unmade beds which we then had to make up for the 9 of us. There were cobwebs, insects and flies everywhere. You can't lock the house. The next day...
