Our philosophy: that your stay in one of our gites is a highlight of your stay in Alsace! Our guests, some of whom have become friends over the course of their stays, want to savor every moment of their stay in Alsace.
Having had the chance and the privilege to restore these houses steeped in so much history, set in such a beautiful setting - Riquewihr, a listed medieval village is among the most beautiful in France and Europe - we wanted to do more than a place to sleep.
We wanted that, at the end of a busy day of visits and discoveries, you find pleasure in spending a moment of comfortable relaxation in an apartment that is your home during your stay.
We wanted to honor a remarkable site at the same time as all aesthetes and epicureans, lovers of good and beautiful things, who will know how to savor the place and the moment.
