Wunderschöne Ferienwohnung

Wunderschöne Ferienwohnung, die in einem schönen Ambiente, direkt am Fluss gelegen ist und den Blick in den schönen Garten, mit altem Baumbestand ermöglicht. Die zentrale Lage hat uns besonders gefallen, denn von dort aus hatten wir einen tollen Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen und Städtebesichtigungen. Die Wohnung ist sehr großzügig, modern und sehr hochwertig (mit Smart Home Technologie) ausgestattet, sodass wir uns wirklich wohlgefühlt haben. Die Vermieter haben uns sehr freundlich empfangen und uns stets hilfsbereit unterstützt (z.B. als wir uns ausgeschlossen hatten). Spontan war auch noch eine Verlängerung des Aufenthalts möglich. So konnten wir die Wohnung noch etwas länger genießen. Wir kommen gerne wieder und bedanken uns ganz herzlich für diesen tollen Kurzurlaub! Liebe Grüße Ehepaar Willach
