The house
Welcome to our family home. The house has been in our family for several generations and was fully renovated over the last ten years. Our parents put their whole heart into giving it a new life, as a place for gatherings and shared memories. We ask you to treat it with the greatest respect, as you would your own home.
Party hall and garden
The party hall and the garden are the ideal place to get together as a family. The former garage, converted into a party hall, has a large table for 20 people, a bar, a fridge, a lounge area, a table-football table and air conditioning.
In the garden, games are at your disposal: two football goals and a ball, a croquet set, a volleyball net with badminton rackets and shuttlecocks, tennis balls and hockey sticks. The Ofyr barbecue, with its large plancha for meat and vegetables and its small pizza oven, is the centre of summer evenings.
The house
The dining room's open fire heats the room very well in winter. The house has a large bathroom with shower, a sauna and a laundry room behind the kitchen. A large gravel car park is laid out behind the garden.
