Schön in einem kleinen Dorf ohne Durchgangsverkehr

Ideal für Ruhesuchende. Kein Verkehr, aber auch keine Action. Baden kann man gut und die Liegestühle des Nachbarhotels kann man mitbenutzen.

Gute Lage für Beginn od. Ende einer Rundreise

Nur 2 Tage, aber sehr angenehm. Evtl. ist es günstiger Halbpension zu buchen.
