C'est tout de suite jugé, j'y retourne chaque année !
Review by: AS, Aou 14 2012 11:22AM
Découvert pas hasard sur Internet, nous y retournons chaque année depuis 2008 pour un court séjour. C'est un endroit vraiment agréable, tant par le lieu, le confort et l'accueil, où il n'y a jamais rien à redire. Si vous passez par là, n'hésitez pas une minute.
2 jours formidables en mois de juillet 2010
Review by: U. Stremlau, Sep 16 2010 11:47AM
Wir haben mit unseren Kindern 2 wunderschöne Tage bei Fam. Schewe verbracht. Der Empfang ist ganz persönlich, Frau Schewe hat uns sehr gute Tipps zum Weinkauf gegeben und die Kinder hatten sofort Anschluss.
Die Zimmer sind sehr liebevoll ausgestattet, das Frühstück eine schöne Mischung aus franz. und dt. Art und der Garten lädt einfach zum Entspannen ein.
