Großartige Lage, ursprüngliches Haus, kunstvoll eingerichtet

Wunderbare Aussicht, nah zum Skilift, Langlaufloipen in der Nähe und Schlittenfahren vor dem Haus möglich. Sehr netter Vermieter, den man auch am Silvesterabend anrufen kann, wenn ein Steckdosenadapter fehlt. Das Kochen auf dem Holzofen (elektrisch geht auch) haben wir geliebt, das Ofenfeuer wärmt das Haus und ist eine besondere Erfahrung (wir haben die elektrische Heizung nicht gebraucht, es war immer schön warm). Ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt!

Excellent séjour en famille

Chalet idéalement situé pour visiter la région. Environnement très calme et superbe vue sur les montagnes depuis les hauteurs de Marécottes. Les départs de randonnée sont à 2 pas du chalet. Nous avons passés un excellent séjour en famille, et nous avons été très bien accueillis, nous le recommandons.

Fantastisch!

We werden hartelijk welkom geheten en wegwijs gemaakt door de eigenaar. Je kunt zien dat Yves zowel meubelmaker als kunstenaar is. Het huisje is prachtig ingericht! Als je de deur uitstapt ben je in het gelijk in het bos waar je veel wandelingen kunt maken. In de buurt is van alles te doen. Een aanrader dus!

Super séjour

Notre hôte a été à nos petit soin lors de notre arrivée... une personne authentique autant que son jolie mayen tellement dépaysant et reposant ! Les nuits étoilées était fabuleuses et les ânes au petit matin font de cet endroit un petit paradis... Merci à notre hôte nous y reviendrons c’est certains Sandra Kammerer

Het ultieme genieten

Als je helemaal tot rust wil komen in de fantastische natuur, dan is dit DE plek! Super, hier is het écht stil en 's-avonds nog donker... Het huisje zelf is knus en voorzien van een super terras, waar je 's-morgens al heel vroeg van de zon kunt genieten van de heerlijke omgeving en de hoge bergtoppen om je heen. Vuurtje stoken buiten: geen probleem, er is genoeg hout. Ook binnen kun je een vuurtje stoken, maar dan in het authentieke, houtgestookte, fornuis: super (er is trouwens ook een combi magnetron en er zijn 2 kookplaten als je dit makkelijker vindt). Direct bij het huisje beginnen allerlei wandelroutes en telkens zie je de natuur weer op een andere manier. We zijn verliefd en komen hier zeker terug! We werden heel gastvrij onthaald door Yves, de gastheer, die ons wegwijs maakte en allerlei uitleg gaf over zijn huisje, zodat je al direct een gevoel had welkom te zijn!
