Wir hatten eine wundervolle Woche bei Jackie :)
Ein Ort für absolute Ruhe mit einem wundervollen Ausblick.
Das kleine Häuschen bietet alles was man braucht, eine richtig gut ausgestattete Küche, hübsche Einrichtung, eine großartige Terrasse und den super süßen, lieben und gut erzogenen Hund Bosco.
In der Umgebung gibt es viel zu tun, Wandertouren, kleine Bächlein und Schluchten zum Baden und in 20min Entfernung in Pieve di Teco alles was man an Restaurants oder Einkaufsmöglichkeiten braucht. Alles fein säuberlich von Jackie in einem Hefter zusammengetragen.
