Although the sun did not always shine and it rained occasionally, it had a special charm. The temperature was mild, perfect for local wine tastings and nature walks.
TeunSunny but not too hot and light rain. In the evening it can cool down a bit, so wearing a sweater is recommended.
IlseDuring the day it was sunny and pleasant, but at night it cooled off a bit. There were a few rainy days, but that was to be expected.
LianneBeautiful sunny days were often followed by cloudy and cool days. The weather did not keep me from being active, but nice weather was no guarantee.
