Definitely the best holiday home we have stayed at in Hungary. Lots of space including lovely big dining tables both inside and out. Excellent facilities in the kitchen and useful having a DVD player. Plenty of space in the garden and an excellent location for visiting lots of places around Lake Balaton.
