"Wir waren hier in unseren Urlaub öfter zum essen. Reservieren empfohlen. Zum Hotel kann ich nichts sagen, aber im Wirtshaus war der Service sehr net, schnell und aufmerksam. Das Essen kam schnell, in großen Portionen und hat super lecker geschmeckt. Die Preise waren der Qualität angemessen. Es gibt einen schönen Innenhof und eine liebevoll eingerichtete Gaststube."

"Der Schmugglerhof ist definitiv kein Schmuggler Gasthof von überhöhten Preisen und schlechter Qualität von Speisen. Wir waren sehr begeistert vom Essen und der Preis dafür war absolut angemessen. Ein toller Innenhof gab einem ein einladendes Ambiente und der Service war schnell und zuvorkommend. Das Essen hatte einfach auch noch die Qualität die man aus früheren Zeiten kennt und somit kann ich in dieser Rezension beruhigt schreiben, es schmeckte wie bei Oma! Jedem der in der Region Urlaub macht oder unterwegs ist empfehle ich einen Abstecher in den Schmugglerhof zu machen, denn es lohnt sich :)!"
