Charming House with secure bike garage and WiFi, in the heart of Bourg d'Oisan

I was one eight lads who stayed for a weeks cycling holiday. The accommodation was clean and ideally situated.

The rooms are big enough and the separate bathrooms was a god send. The only slight negative was lack of storage space but this was known in advance and our cycling gear stored nicely under the bed in the boxes supplied.

The living area was comfortable and the projector was a nice extra, good for relaxing and watching yours days ride which had been caught on a go pro.

The dining area was ample, the kitchen is a little tight if more than 2 are preparing food, but as we had no budding chefs it was brilliant for us. The bike storage was sufficient and good piece of mind that everything was stored secure and out of the way.

The location was superb, within a 2 minute walk you have bars and shops all of which are decent. A 5 minute walk and you’re at the large super market, (cheap wine, very cheap). The location was excellent for cycling, so many routes in different directions, probably no need to drive once you arrive, depending which iconic routes you want to ride.

Overall extremely happy with the accommodation, highly recommend.

Thank you.

I was in Bourg d'Oisans for just one night, but it was lovely to be able to stay somewhere so comfortable and welcoming. Thanks!

We stayed at Helen and Phil's house for the Christmas week and we had a wonderful holiday! We arrived to a warm cosy, very well set up home. The bedrooms are very spacious and comfortable and the fact that we all had our own bathroom was a bonus too - it meant that we could all get ready for the slopes at the same time without having to fight for showers.

The kitchen has excellent facilities but for 6 of us it was a bit tight on worktop space. I understand that Helen and Phil are thinking about changing it around and maybe extending it soon so hopefully even more space will be available for preparing, eating and lounging around! The lounge was very cosy and comfortable and with the log fire roaring when we came in from the slopes, we couldn't have asked for a better Christmas atmosphere!

The location is excellent, in a quiet street, but within 2 minutes walking distance to all the facilities of the town, including a smashing bar - the Cafe De Paris which we loved!

Bourg Oisan was exactly what we wanted, be in the Alps, away from the buzzling of a ski resort, although at a close reach of it. Alpe de Huez and Les deux Alpes, are two large ski reorts at easy reach, and even in a severe winter, with a normal car, we could move around most places. The Boulangeries inthe village were excellent. Could not say the same for the level of the restaurants. However, there are good places around with niecer food (Allemont, Villard Reculas and of course Grenoble).

The house is in a peaceful area in the village, walking distance to everything. Very nice!!! The facilities are great, and the house is warm, very important in hard winters, and the wood burner in the small lounge works beautifully, heating the ground floor and a room upstairs. The rooms are all spacious, great surprise. The area in the kitchen to eat is a bit tight but workable, you get use to it. If you stay for a long time, a washing machine would be quite nice. However, there is a laundry real close. Our falmily had a great time and the owners were very tollerant with our excitment sometimes when the good wine was playing its role!!!

All in all, I recommend it if you want a relaxing holiday, as we were looking for.

We really enjoyed our week at Helen and Phil's property. The house is bright, comfortable and well appointed, and in a fantastic location right in the heart of town. Perfect for those who are undertaking a cycling holiday with storage space for bikes and excellent day rides in/out of Bourg. Helen and Phil offered excellent advice to us both prior to arrival and also during our stay - definitely aiming to return! Thanks.
