About this house rental
In the small hamlet of Crétaz, near (200 m) Cogne, the most famous municipality of the Gran Paradiso National Park, nature reserve where you can find the typical fauna of the high mountains such as snow hares, ibexes and golden eagles, this part of a two-family house awaits you in a former barn made of wood and stone from the 19th century. The accommodation is on two levels, on the mezzanine floor there is the living room with dining area and fireplace, an equipped small panoramic terrace, a small kitchen and the bathroom. The upper mansard floor (minimum height 1.50 m) is reached by a wooden staircase, here there is a double bedroom, a room with bunk beds and the toilet. From the outside you have access to a small garden equipped for outdoor dining, shared with the apartment below and overlooking the river. Stone barbecue (wood). The balcony offers a charming view over the entire valley. Good starting point for excursions to the valleys of Grauson and Arpisson, popular destination for ski mountaineers and ice climbers both in summer and winter. The wide basin of Cogne offers more than 70 km of ski slopes and the nearest are only 500 m from the house. Possibility to: trekking, rafting and ski. From Crétaz you can reach the famous Courmayeur at the foot of Monte Bianco (50 km) or Gressonay (100 km), the vibrant heart of Monte Rosa, with its large ski area (170 km of slopes), which connects with Alagna. Ideal starting point for visiting the ancient castles in the area, such as Ussel Castle with breathtaking views of surrounding mountains and valleys. For ice climbing enthusiasts, only 2.5 km from the house are the famous waterfalls of Lilaz: more than 50 waterfalls at 1700 m above sea level, with up to 250 m of climbing.

8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2016
Location agréable, bien située, au calme, bien équipée,propre. Proche de Cogne et de départs de très belles randonnées.
Bon accueil et disponibilité du couple chargé des clés, de la liaison, de l'entretien.
Jardin commun, aménagé, barbecue : petit espace et pas d'accès pratique pour un repas si ce n'est pique-nique.

La maisonnette est très bien située, dans un hameau au calme. Idéal pour les familles car il y a un parc de jeux et un torrent accessible. En revanche les équipements électroménagers - lave-vaisselle, machine à laver- sont fatigués. Il est marqué dans l’annonce qu’il y a un sèche linge: c’est en fait une machine à laver séchante de 1980 qui n’assure pas du tout la fonction séchante. Dommage.
Le velux d’une des chambre est condamné, et l’autre rideau occultant ne ferme pas jusqu’en bas. Dur dur si on a l’habitude de dormir dans l’obscurité.
Sinon les paysages sont magnifiques, les randonnées adaptées pour les familles. Les balisages sont très précis et les sentiers entretenus. Les villages typiques sont accueillants et les glaces délicieuses.
C’est un endroit très agréable et nous en sommes contents.
