Verified review
A beautiful house, great view on platberg indeed, and very friendly, pretty and helpful hosts. One small detail that could use a little improvement: door slamming is rather easy to hear. Perhaps some of the workers should be reminded of that fact when starting work in the early morning. However, a great finish to a great holiday alltogether.
