You can relax and unwind here. The children are looked after and pampered with a huge adventure playground in the forest with a slide and running water. The lake invites you to cool off and there is also an area for the little ones. You can rent pedal boats so you can enjoy the relaxing view from the water. And you can enjoy your time with a little refreshment of your body with good home-style snack food or even a piece of cake with coffee.
