Please note that the apartment is only available for responsible adults and does not allow children or pets. On occasion, the owner's Border Collie named Eddi may visit guests, although he may not always understand that he is not the king of the castle all the time.

The pool, located in the fully fenced lower garden, offers stunning views facing west over the valley. It is open from June to September, with a possible extension into October if there is an Indian Summer.

The apartment can accommodate a maximum of four adults, with two double beds (including one sofa bed). The pricing is inclusive of electricity, hot water, and central heating (if applicable). Bedding and towels (excluding pool towels) are provided at a laundry charge of 15 euros per bed per week. If only one or two guests rent the apartment and do not utilize the sofa bed, a 25% discount is applied to the tariff rate. A security deposit of 300 euros is required upon arrival, payable in cash, and will be fully refunded if no damages or losses occur during the stay. Guest liability is not limited to the level of the security deposit.
