Roughing it again...Schloss Basthorst

A drive into the middle of nowhere was rewarded with a lovely hotel based in, and around an old Schloss. We are in an ornate room in the East wing, with a high ceiling and bathed in sunshine from a south facing window. After settling in, we put on our hotel supplied dressing gown's and slippers and headed to the Spa and pool. We had a bit of trouble finding eachother after going into the changing rooms, which caused Pilar to come searching for me in the Men's, whilst I was stood outside the Female's calling for her. All very Laurel and Hardy, but we finally met up and went laughing together for a swim in the indoor pool. Outside in the garden were various Sauna's which I worked my way courageously through. Whilst Pilar sat commenting on the naked people as they came out of the Sauna. We finished off the afteroon with a beer on the sunloungers. Lovely relaxing afternoon.Read more
