Heerlijke spannende vakantie gehad in Riviersig
Fijn en ruim huis op afgesloten eigen terrein.
Alles is aanwezig wat je maar nodig kan hebben.
Wij hadden gelijk de eerste avond een power outage te pakken van 3/4 dag, wellicht handig om hiervoor wat instructies te geven over waar je kaarsen of noodlampen kan vinden voor t geval dat.
Een trekker voor de douche die wordt erg nat in de kleine badkamer
Een ventilator buiten zoals sommige andere huizen hebben ivm muggen
We hebben een klamboe (handig met power outage ivm airco en ventilator uitval) en opblaas figuur achtergelaten voor eventuele andere gasten.
