Het familiehotel is van binnen statig gezellig en mooi onderhouden.
Wij hadden een prachtige kamer met een zitruimte, open haard en groot balkon.
De familie die het hotel runt is erg vriendelijk.
Ondanks dat wij als enige in het hotel waren (buiten het seizoen), hadden we een uitgebreid ontbijtbuffet.
De ligging is heerlijk rustig, iets buiten het centrum maar slechts 15 minuten lopen.

Great stay
Family-run place. We were the only guests. For dinner, since it was raining and we didn't have a car, they ran and got us food from a restaurant in town. Fantastic fireplace too!
