Staying at a very historical place, in the original buildings but with all modern comfort, with catering that melts your mouth, has lots of parking space, very friendly and helpful staff. Super for cycling and walking. Close to the Fochteloerveen nature reserve.

- No vegan option on the card! - Micro TV screen and no way to connect my Amazon FireStick. No DisplayPort, no USB on the TV, no free current socket by the TV - Very steep stairs with steps that are far too short.
