Estivemos pasando a ponte de Semana Santa nesta casa marabillosa. O caseiro foi moi amable e estivo pendente de nós cando necesitamos. A casa é espectacular, reformada e equipada con todo o necesario. Moi agradable coa chimenea no inverno, o caseiro deixou leña suficiente para a chimenea e a calefaccion. Súper recomendable. Repetiremos seguro!!!!
