Alles war wie beschrieben und auf den Fotos gezeigt.
Die Vermieterin ist sehr nett und hat immer schnell auf meine Nachrichten reagiert.
Zudem war sie sehr tolerant, was unser Lärmpegel anging.
Wie hatten alle eine schöne Zeit und können einen Aufenthalt in der Villa Foree wärmstens empfehlen.

älteres Haus (Ringhörig) aber sehr sauber und mit tollen, grosszügigen Zimmern.

Die Villa ist ideal für eine Jugendfreizeit, weil sie liebevoll gepflegt ist, man aber nicht viel kaputt machen kann. Wir sind mit der Küche, den Zimmern und den Gemeinschaftsräumen sehr gut klargekommen und konnten auch unsere Technik gut einsetzen. Einziger Nachteil: 5 Duschen für 64 Personen kann tricky werden und der Pizzaofen kann immer nur 2 Pizzen gleichzeitig backen. Aber wir hatten eine tolle Zeit und die Vermieter sind sehr nett, hilfsbereit und geduldig!

Das Haus ist perfekt für mehrere Familien. Es hat diverse Zimmer mit unterschiedlicher Anzahl Betten, die Küche ist grosszügig bestückt, der Aufenthaltsraum riesig... sogar zwei Tischtennistische (drin/draussen) hat es. Es hat genügend Platz, damit man auch eine ruhige Ecke findet. Im Sommer wäre der Garten bestimmt ein riesiges Plus. Uns hat es jedenfalls sehr gut gefallen.
Die Hausbesitzerin hat immer sofort auf Fragen geantwortet und uns bestens betreut. Herzlichen Dank!
