Great! We knew the place, but it was the first time we slept here. Great and in case of rain.
Great!
We really liked it there despite the bad weather. Paradise for children and rest for parents. Everything maintained, only people don't appreciate it. I recommend it to everyone
Nice place - lots of space, nice little tower, peace and quiet, fire and wood available, caddy and paper. We booked at the last minute due to a car breakdown and everything went without a hitch. All has been said before - shame the view is worse than the tyres and you can smell the manure at times. But nothing terrible, it was fine for us. Thanks!
A beautiful place by a magical lookout tower. Nice view, quiet place, everything you need - dry toilet, fireplace. We slept perfectly here. Thank you ❤️
I will stay in: (What should I select in my case?)
