So, it turned out that this was our 21st Airbnb booking, and while that may not be an event worthy of celebration, staying at Veronika’s place made it so.
Yes, the house is a beautiful architectural statement of the “minimalism-meets-nature” period of the 1970’s, and yes the gardens surrounding the house are stunning, but the highlight is neither of those things. It’s Veronika, who went out of her way to make us feel at home. From meeting us in the cold and dark with a torch to steer us down the driveway to the fire already going in the fireplace, we knew it was going to be something special. Veronika went out of her way to make us feel at home and comfortable, and spending a cold Saturday night in front of a fire in such beautiful surrounds was the highlight of a romantic weekend.
We’ll be back!
