We weren't expecting to have to spend as much time inside, but we had a wonderful time. The owners brought us candles since the wind was too intense to have a fire in the fireplace, and there were plenty of pots, pans, dishes and glasses for us to cook up a feast. We felt at home. So much so that we plan on coming back during the summer, so that we can enjoy the barbecue and all the outdoor furniture and games available. It is the perfect place if you're looking for hiking and bicycle trails that will bring you to the dunes, the beach and lovely woods and farms. ##### Bettina B.

Alles was man als Selbstversorger braucht, ist da. Wir wurden von der Vermieterin sehr nett und freundlich empfangen. Wir sind mit 2 Pärchen plus Kind plus Hund gefahren. Mein Mann und ich haben oben geschlafen. Der Auf und Abstieg ist ein Erlebnis 😄 wenn's geht nüchtern bleiben 😉. Auch sollte man als große Person auf den Kopf aufpassen...das rummst ordentlich 🙈. Was wir sehr vermisst haben, ist Stauraum. Wir waren 4 Erwachsene und ein Kind. Oben gab es gar keinen Stauraum und unten nur einen kleinen Schrank und eine kleine Kommode. Wir oben haben also alles im Koffer gelassen. Der Tisch in der Küche ist ziemlich klein für so viele Leute. Wir mussten unseren kleinen Klapptisch dazu stellen, damit wir Platz für den Aufschnitt hatten. Wir waren mit unserem Hund da. Der musste an der Schleppleine bleiben, da das Grundstück nicht geschlossen ist und der Nachbarshund auch gerne Mal vorbei schaute. Das Grundstück an sich bräuchte mehr Pflege. Die Umgebung ist sehr schön und lädt zum spazieren gehen ein. Den Weg zum Strand sind wir nur mit dem Auto gefahren. Der Weg ist zu weit, um alles dorthin zu schleppen. Die Strände sind toll 👍. Grade auch der Hundestrand ist sehr tief und breit. Und super sauber. Vor allem hat man dort auch viel Platz, da dort wegen der Hunde kaum einer liegen möchte. ##### Marina H.

Wir sind sofort wieder nach Hause gefahren. Es war furchtbar, kein Urlaub möglich!!! Durchgelegene Matratzen in den Betten, ein Garten für Hunde ohne Zaun zur Straße! Ein Esstisch, an dem sich Menschen über 1.70m nicht bequem hinsetzen konnten. Es gab keine Garderobe, um Jacken aufzuhängen. Alles in allem: Horror - eine Ansammlung von Sperrmüll!!!
