Ulrike was busy, but Manfred was an excellent host, picking me up at the dock and driving me to the house, and then back into town for a tour I had planned. He chauffeured me three times between the house, about 1.5 miles out of town (easy walk) and the town, took me for a hike up to a beautiful point, and shared the local history with me. The house was beautifully located, with many birds flying around in the trees.
Manfred also suggested hikes and local places to eat. Breakfast was excellent and varied. I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the stay!
