Good to know

Our gîte is spacious and comfortable, cool in summer and well heated in winter.

The countryside is rich in biodiversity and depending on the season flies can be present and in summer the cows and their famous bells are outside...

Here, we do not guarantee snow or sun, but a beneficial change of scenery in a nature that is still so beautiful and preserved!

The Gîte

In an old typical Vosges farm, the gîte is an independent two-storey house,

near our farm, converted into a group gîte.

Completely renovated, very well equipped and comfortable, you can enjoy the fireplace in winter

or the terrace in summer with a direct view of the Val d'Argent, its surrounding nature,

its mountains and the Haut-Koenigsbourg castle!

A kitchen, a washing machine and a furnished living room with a library where you will find regional and tourist books, novels and board games. The house is located in the middle of an exceptional landscape of meadows and forests shaped for centuries by Man, a stone's throw from the family farm with its hens, official egg suppliers and its vegetable garden

Discover the region

On foot or by bike, the farm is located in the immediate vicinity of many mountain bike and hiking trails and departures can be made from the house. You can also choose to join more distant trails by car, such as on the Crêtes.

To see:

Crest roads with its farm inns,

Lac Blanc resort (hiking, mountain biking, bike park, adventure park, barefoot trail, luge on rails...)

Haut Koenigsbourg castle, eagle aviary and monkey mountains

Alsace wine route

AT THE GATES OF THE GITE:

Col des Bagenelles

Une parenthèse hors du temps

Nous avons passé un superbe week-end entre amis grâce à ce gîte spacieux qui domine la vallée. Tout le monde a adoré son séjour ainsi que la visite de la ferme. Un grand merci à Michelle et Guy-Lou qui sont des hôtes adorables et très attentionnés.

Wunderbares Wochenende!

Das Gîte liegt sehr ruhig am Fuß der Vogesen mit einer herrlichen Aussicht, nach abenteuerlicher Zufahrt. Das geräumige Haus bietet viel Platz mit 4 großen Schlafzimmern und zwei schönen, neu renovierten Badezimmern, sowie weiteren Aufenthaltsräumen. Wir waren dort mit 6 Erwachsenen und 3 Kindern. Die Gastgeber, M. und Mme Botter, sind überaus hilfsbereit und gastfreundlich: frisch gebackener Kuchen und eine Flasche elsässischer Wein erwarteten uns als Willkommensgruß. Wir kommen wieder.
