Run by the delightful Davras sisters, 'Lake' Pension has a true welcoming ambience and six sparkling clean, comfortable rooms with decent-sized bathrooms, some with balconies. The two attic rooms with sloped ceilings share a big private terrace and can be joined together – useful for travelling families or groups of friends. It usually opens for the season from late April.
