We would particularly like to highlight the large, well-maintained pool and the beautifully landscaped garden – a true oasis of peace and relaxation.Upon arrival, we were greeted incredibly warmly by the owners – we have never been welcomed so warmly in a holiday home! Maria and Fouli had great tips for excursions, which allowed us to explore the surrounding area to the fullest.The house itself was very clean and functionally furnished. Every comment or request was responded to immediately – the service was simply great.A particularly nice moment was the farewell: Eva surprised us with freshly baked cheese pies and small farewell gifts.An all-round successful stay – we can highly recommend this holiday home and will definitely be back! ##### Frank B.
