We liked:
Wij verbleven met onze kindjes voor de eerste keer bij jullie op het prachtig mooi en super proper kasteeldomein! En het zal zeker niet de laatste keer zijn ☺️
We werden hartelijk verwelkomd en werden begeleid naar onze cabanes.
Wat een prachtig verblijf! Super netjes, alles voorhanden en lekker rustig gelegen, maar toch op wandelafstand van het zwembad, speeltuin etc ☀️❣️
Ook het restaurant is een echte aanrader! Heerlijk gegeten !!!
Benoit en Valerie zorgen dat alles goed verloopt en het zijn echt super lieve en hartelijke mensen ❣️
We did not like:
Goh niet echt iets , maar als ik dan iets moet zeggen misschien een droogrekje voor handdoeken etc aan te hangen bij de cabanes.
Eventueel extra kapstokhaakjes voor keukenhanddoeken ☺️

De rest was echt perfect!!!!
