Haus war sauber und ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Gute und ruhige Lage. Ausssentreppe und Geländer sind mangelhaft. Geländer biettet im Ernstfall keinen Halt, weil es garantiert abbrechen wird. Holztreppe im nassen Zustand glatt. Türschloss (ist nicht der Schliesszylinder) war defekt wurde nach einigen Diskussionen aber ausgetauscht. Durchlauferhitzer zu schwach dimensioniert. Bei Warmwasserentnahme in der Küche wird es unter der Dusche kalt. Für 85 € pro Tag grenzwertig.

Urlaub wie gewünscht
Perfekt! Die sehr gute Kommunikation mit dem Verwalter war prima, uns wurde alles bestens erklärt. Die Ausstattung des Objektes war gut durchdacht, wir haben nichts vermisst. Sehr gut in Erinnerung sind unsere morgendlichen Spaziergänge mit unserem Hund zum nahegelegenen See. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Erholung pur im Frankenwald
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Die Ruhe und die Lage im Grünen bieten beste Voraussetzungen für eine entspannte Erholung (insbesondere die Terrasse mit Blick auf Waldrand). Das Haus ist der optimale Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen durch den Frankenwald. Allerdings hätte sich unsere Tochter an den vereinzelten Regentagen W-LAN gewünscht. PS: Die Betreuung vor Ort war wunderbar. Viele Grüße an Familie Guth und Charly

Alles prima!
Das Ferienhaus ist sehr sauber und es fehlt an nichts. Wir haben uns wohlgefühlt. Der Kontakt mit der Verwalterin war sehr nett. Nur die Nachbarn sind leider Hunden nicht so zugetan.
