We really enjoyed our week long stay in the charming holiday house in the picturesque Grengiols. The house has maintained its picturebook old charm with wooden beams and original features whilst boasting all modern features like double glazed windows, modern heating system/kitchen/bathroom/washing machine/tv/broadband etc.
Upon arrival we were greeted by the kind hosts personally. Our children were especially impressed with the original 1818 ceramic ovens. The holiday apartment was spacious with beautiful views upon the village and mountains with a large living room, kitchen/dining area,, and lovely bedrooms. The highlight for the children was the modern mezzanine balcony loft which was a wonderful extra. As the balcony loft was only accessible by a modern ladder the kids quickly claimed the balcony loft space as theirs bringing all the board games, books and i-pad to their ‘kingdom’ whilst leaving us with the whole apartment. We really enjoyed the skiing nearby in the Aletsch arena as well as in the picturesque villages a short drive away. We also enjoyed a very good dinner in the local restaurant with food made from fresh local produce and based on local specialities. Of course we couldn’t leave without sampling the different sorts of cheeses made at different times of the year in Greniols and surrounding area. Grengiols and the holiday house was really a wonderful place to soak in the beauty of nature and unwind whilst providing a great starting point to do skiing.
We look forward to returning, and can thoroughly recommend this lovely property and the hosts.
