Inizialmente ero scettica, poiché il luogo si trova in un posto abbastanza fuori mano dalla strada, poi una volta entrata, mi sono catapultata in un posto magico, ricco di bella gente, bell'ambiente e belle attività. Alice e Martina hanno coccolato i nostri figli, gli hanno fatto coltivare le lattughine, gli hanno fatto fare giochi interattivi e altre belle attività. Raccomandatissimo
