Oscar from Den Haag,
Mooie vakantieplek. Woning is authentiek en zeer compleet met vaatwasser en wasmachine. Een ruime eigen tuin met hek eromheen. Het terrein is mooi opgezet met zwembad en voldoende speelmogelijkheden voor kinderen. Ook hier weer een hek/muur om het terrein heen. Veel mogelijkheden in de omgeving.
Hans from Hedel,
Mooi domein (met een chateau/grote villa) met meerdere gites, zodanig geschakeld dat je geen overlast van elkaar hebt. Oudere Engelse eigenaresse, maar zoon William en een medewerkster runnen de zaak, op een plezierige manier. Complete, smaakvolle inrichting (ook vaatwasser en wasmachine). Mooi zwembad. Erg tevreden over alles. Ligt redelijk dicht bij allerlei stranden en voorzieningen.
