Interaction with guest

We live in a cottage across the court yard from your apartment. We provide detailed written information about the operation of appliances and technology. You have your own keys and a separate entrance - so you can come and go and be completely independent, if that is your wish. if you want to "meet the locals" we are equally happy to share coffee and to talk about what there is to see and do nearby.
