Very nice area and great to see the vulcanic rural areas.
An diesem wunderschönen Ort, findet man maximale Erholung. Abseits vom Trubel lässt sich die Insel von hier aus sehr gut erkunden. Mir hat es an nichts gefehlt und ich komme gerne immer wieder hier her. Obrigado!
Et au milieu coule une rivière. ......qui veut le calme bercé par le bruit de l eau est au bon endroit. Nous, on a adoré. Un vieux moulin à eau réhabilité avec tout le confort nécessaire. Pas besoin de plus. Seul le lit serait à revoir mais après les randonnées, nous y avons quand même trouvé un sommeil réparateur. À recommander pour les amoureux de nature et de calme.
This is an amazing place for nature lovers. The House of Susanne and Jan is a reconstructed windmill right in the river with water streams all around the house. The house is well equipped with private kitchen and toilet, very clean and extremely cozy. This is a great place for a couple.
Susanne war eine herzliche Gastgeberin und die alte Mühle am Fluss ein traumhaft schöner Ort mitten in der Natur. Das Häuschen hat alles was es braucht und ist liebevoll eingerichtet. Holt euch die Tipps von Susanne, sie sind es auf jeden Fall wert!
