10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2026
The place was perfect and easy to access, with very clear instructions. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. There were plenty of beds and blankets for everyone, and a fully equipped kitchen for cooking. The kids loved the Dinosaur House, which was only a 10-minute walk from the house.

Great little bach for a central plateau get away. Excellent value for money, especially for larger groups. Water pressure in the shower was lacking but at least the wet back on the fire meant we could all have hot showers after a hard days skiing.
