Ist book a bach

This was our first time with book a Bach and we were not disappointed. The unit was modern, clean and a pleasure to stay in. Basics (tea,coffee etc) were supplied and there was even a wonderful tray of fruit. We were greeted by Amanda and she was just lovely and so helpful. A wonderful stay.

Rural Paradise

Totally recommend staying in this property. From the booking, to check-in to meet and greet with David it was faultless. The place was spacious and immaculate. Just a shame we were only there for the 1 night. Wohld love to stayagain should the opportunity arise.
