Motorrad Tour

Insgesamt hatten wir eine gute Woche in Presseck. Allerdings mit ein paar Abstrichen. Die Betten und Matratzen sind vielleicht etwas für Kinder, für Erwachsene überhaupt nicht geeignet. Durchgelegen, knarzend, quitschend und zu klein. Das ganze Haus knarzt bei der kleinsten Bewegung, bei den ganzen Durchgangszimmern sehr ungünstig für jeden Schlaf. Es gibt kein Öl, Salz, Pfeffer, auch keine Streuer dafür, keinen Mixer, keine Mikrowelle, keine Bürste, keinen Schwamm, keine Stühle, keine "Möbel" für draußen, außer der überdachten Bank, aber je 2x Kühlschrank, Ofen, Wasserkocher, Kaffeemaschine und genug Geschirr, Besteck und Gläser. Ingsesamt zu zehnt so gerade noch ausreichend, bis auf die Betten/Zimmer, mit mehr Personen kann ich es mir so gar nicht vorstellen. Garten kaum vorhanden, Aussicht vom Haus auch nicht direkt gegeben. Eine Burg oder ein Schloss sollte man auf keinen Fall erwarten. Wir würden das Haus nicht einfach so weiterempfehlen.

Tolles Haus für Sportliche

Das Haus war sehr sauber, Küche und Bäder neu und gut ausgestattet. Aus unserer Sicht, war es für unsere Reisegruppe nicht ideal. Sehr steile Treppen, Hellhörigkeit und Durchgangszimmer waren für kleine Kinder ungünstig. Auch für ältere Personen, die mit steilen Treppen Schwierigkeiten haben, finden wir das Haus eher ungeeignet. Für Menschen ohne oder mir älteren Kindern, ist das Haus aber durchaus eine Reise wert. Sehr ruhig gelegen, gut für Abendteuer in der Natur.

Unser Aufenthalt in Schlopp

Unser Aufenthalt mit der Familie in der Ferienunterkunft Schlopp war sehr schön. Die Unterkunft war wie beschrieben historisch, aber trotzdem modern eingerichtet und sauber. Wir hatten super Wetter. Die Umgebung ist sehr ländlich und setzt eine gewisse Mobilität voraus. Die unmittelbare Nachbarschaft machte jedoch auf uns einen ungepflegten Eindruck (z.B. großer, uralter und instabil wirkender Langholzstapel), was u.E. für das mühevoll renovierte "Minischloss" nicht vorteilhaft ist.

Das etwas andere Ferienhaus

Rustikal und gemütlich. Für 12 Personen optimal. Drei Bäder mit super neuen Duschen und noch zwei WC extra.
