Great stay

very nice Charlet. On arrival everything was perfectly prepared and we immediately felt very comfortable. There was enough space for us (7 people). Despite the very practical location (100m to the supermarket entrance) very quiet. The kitchen was exceptionally well equipped. The contact with the landlady was very pleasant and uncomplicated via whatsapp.

Super gastvrije eigenaar. Chalet is helemaal top top in orde! Met een lekkere open haard voor een top wintersport ervaring. Wel een hele drukke weg in de tweede week van de kerstvakantie richting de lift in Chatel. De 3 minuten rijden werd soms wel drie kwartier.

La montagne en été

Superbe chalet bien rénové propre et couchage super confortable, proche des commodités tout en étant au milieu de la nature et au calme. Très chouette séjour. Pour les vacances d’été une terrasse extérieur pouvant accueillir le nombre de couchage serait un plus à l’avenir
