Perfectly situated and beautiful location

The cottage and, above all, the surroundings are beautiful – you have a sea view from the window and can see the impressive mansion and its gardens next door (which we were able to visit on Open Monument Day, definitely worth seeing). The holiday flat is equipped with everything you need; there is also an outdoor area with a natural terrace in the shade, where a soothing little stream flows. A special bonus: dogs are allowed. We were greeted very warmly and shown around. There were also pastries for us and treats for the dogs, wonderful! Philippe, his family and employees are charming hosts. We can recommend the accommodation and the location.
