Wonderful cottage very thoughtfully renovated and beautiful. We loved the relaxed comfort it offered both inside and outside (the animals, fruit trees, flowers, pet dog ...). And all the amenities for cooking were much appreciated.

This was a fabulous place to begin our holiday. It is clean, warm, and cute with a magical outlook. It has everything you need including a gorgeous open fire and a soothing bath which was much appreciated after a day on the slopes. Hosts are incredibly welcoming and even though they live nearby, they totally respect your privacy. Highly recommend
