After exploring all the cultural, historical and natural wonders this region has to offer, you’ll surely need a comfortable holiday home to unwind in.

Let all your worries float away and relax completely when you stay at this restored barn.

Be sure to bring along an extra towel and some slip-on shoes if you want to take a soak, as per the host’s advice.
Lounge on the wooden swing in the garden to soak in the fresh air. You can also curl up in the nook by the window that catches sunshine through the glass windows. Whip up meals in the well-equipped kitchen and dine al fresco on the picnic bench outside. Several lakeside parks, a spa and a fishing park are just 15 minutes away by car.
