Charmante maison de montagne

Cette maison de montagne était charmante et spacieuse…. un rêve ! C'était propre, bien équipé et le propriétaire était gentil et a répondu rapidement. Nous avons acheté des repas, du pâté et de la confiture à Roselyn et Thiery. C'était une option très pratique et les repas étaient délicieux, à base de viande de chasse de Thiery et d'ingrédients frais et locaux. Nous reviendrons certainement. Merci.

Superbe chalet en pleine nature

Très bon séjour dans ce chalet tout confort. Tous les équipements nécessaires et produits de bases sont présents. Propriétaires super agréables et au petit soin, ainsi que Sonia et son époux qui peuvent s'occuper de "réceptionner" les locataires. Bref tous les ingrédients sont réunis pour passer un excellent séjour. Station de ski la plus proche, le mourtis à 30 min de voiture. Petite station familiale très agréable. Bref, merci à tous 🙂

Superbe logement

Nous avons passé un week-end en famille et l’ensemble des participants ont apprécié le logement. Tout est absolument superbe : le chalet, la décoration, le lieu, le paysage, la literie, les équipements . Les matériaux sont de qualité. Les nombreuses ouvertures vitrées permettent de profiter du paysage à tout moment et de se sentir proche de la nature. La disposition des pièces permet à chacun d’avoir son propre espace. Tout est fait pour que l’on s’y sente bien. L’accueil et la communication avec les propriétaires ont été facilité et agréable. Je recommande fortement ce logement qui permet de se réunir à plusieurs en tout confort. C’est une adresse incontournable ! Merci à Karin et Bruno pour leur gentillesse.
