Great family experience on a beautiful island
Dear Antonia and Mike We enjoyed your hospitality from the first day on. Already the mailboat cruise to your place was very impressive and the kids loved it a lot. We felt immediately at home in your cosy school cottage. All the more as you, Antonia, also involved the children from the first day on in feeding the animals, collecting eggs or walking the dogs. Mike, thank you for all the tipps and tricks around the fishing and for providing us great fish, as we weren't so succesful. It's just a pitty you do live on the other side of the world. We'd be there every year!! A big hug from all of us :-)
