"insgesamt ein sehr schöner Urlaub im riesigen und sehr schönen Park mit der Residenz - Wohnung sehr großzügig geschnitten und die Küche perfekt ausgestattet ... einzig schade war, dass der Steg am See baufällig und nicht benutzbar war - Zugang in den See zwar möglich, aber optisch nicht schön ... super großer Pool mit Duschen, WC und sogar Getränkestand - alles in allem empfehlenswert ..."
