Cozy and secluded chalet

A comfortable and well-equipped rental. It had everything imaginable in terms of kitchenware, recreational materials (games, cards), tourist brochures, cleaning materials, and bathroom supplies. The tourist information was solely in French as well as all instructions for the use of appliances. We highly recommend an English version, especially for the appliances, for those who have little to no French. Unfortunately, we had an issue with the owner about charges for linen and towels. The VRBO English site indicated no extra charge for this. It seems that the French site did. This is a serious oversight/problem. Beware users of the English website before you book! However, Corinne was very amenable and understanding about this issue and we resolved it amicably. Overall, the accommodation is very good. And visiting such a beautiful volcanic landscape was an unforgettable and once in a lifetime experience. Merci, Corinne.

Lovely and quiet location and accommodation

The place was easy to find. Very spacious and well equipped. In a lovely quiet setting with views of the woods and mountains. Bakery was 5 mins walk away. Other small shops were in a similar location, providing basic items. Many signposted walks near by. We were very impressed with the surrounding areas and would happily stay in the accommodation again.

CHALET CONFORT POUR UN SEJOUR REUSSI

Equipements - isolation - déco - propreté - canapés+tv+couchages de qualité (très rare en locatif estival) - accès et localisation - calme - et temps clément, autant d'éléments essentiels et positifs qui nous ont permis d'apprécier nos 15 jrs cet été, en faisant peu ou 0 km pour de belles randos à faible dénivelé pour les genoux. Terrine et bière en guise de bienvenue ! Boucher-traiteur + boulanger à 10 mn à pieds. Voisinage immédiat par chance discret. Pas de rencontre physique avec les propriétaires éloignés mais contacts fluides et retours rapides et efficaces. Quoi demander de plus !
