"We had a wonderful vacation. Such peace and quiet. We rented a cottage with a fenced-in yard, which was ideal for our dog. Our horse had a nice stall with plenty of straw and hay. She also had her own pasture. We went on lovely walks and bike rides with the dog and the horse. You can go on beautiful trail rides with the horse. The dog got to swim in the pond. At the park, you could order bread rolls from the bakery, which you could pick up at the front desk in the morning. You could also get pizza or fries in the evening. Everything was well organized."
