Farmhouse

Four-bedroom farmhouse in the countryside. All of the four double bedrooms are en suite with luxury shower and bath. Farm kitchen with barbecue, tables and chairs outside. Great for groups of friends. The supermarket is half an hour by car and you can take a train from the village into the city. Escape from normal life for a few days as we have … NO INTERNET and you can only use mobile phones at the bottom of the garden!

I prefer a house in the countryside, because I want to rest in the calm.

Actually, i'd choose something like farmhouse. I like to spend time without phones and social media. In this moment you can talk to with your friends or play. It's really cool option for me, also beautiful nature give me more energy. At the moment i'm in my hometown. Near my countryside we've mountain and healing lake. In my childhood we already went to this places. Farmhouse is the best place for spend time with family or friends!

For me, I would choose a farmhouse. I like large , quiet and airy places. I holidays, I wanna take a rest with friends talking about works, relationship etc, and cooking food whether it 's delicious or not. At nights, we would play guitar, sing and dance. I think a farmhouse is better than a flat for above reasons.

Which place would you choose for a holiday?
No matter where I choose for a holiday, it will be fun if I am with my bf.
We have loved for 2 years and have travelled many places, but I love 2 places following: Da Lat city - a beautiful city with cool weather and many flowers, Thuy Chau ecotourism park where we camped, had lunch and spring bath. The next holiday in August, we are going to visit Da Nang city. This is the first time I fly to go there. I'm so excited about it!
