Res a destacar

Rustige locatie, beetje aan de rand van dit prachtige dorpje. Een heel mooi oud vakwerkhuis van meer dan 400 jaar oud, en ook het interieur hebben ze in die stijl gehouden. Wij zaten in 'Le Brocard'

Het tweepersoonsbed was mooi maar ook aardig kort, ik ben 1,86 m en kon er maar net in liggen en heb daardoor niet zo lekker geslapen, terwijl de matrassen heel lekker lagen. Ook de inventaris in de keuken (met name glaswerk) viel wat tegen.

Easy check-in with clear instructions. We were 2 couples staying in La Chouette & L'Écureuil and enjoyed it. The stovetop espresso maker & coffee grinds were greatly appreciated.

Just mentioning that the stairs are narrow & steep, so higher floors not suitable for anyone with mobility issues (no problem for us, but wanted to share).

We stayed in the Apartment with Terrace. It is next door to the house and is spread over three floors, linked by a spiral staircase. The bathroom is on the ground floor, the kitchen and sitting room on the first floor and the bedroom on the second floor-we suggest you be aware of this-and the spiral staircase - when booking. The apartment is well fitted out, clean and warm, with excellent wifi. The street outside is charming and full of character and could hardly be more convenient for the town centre. We were treated with nothing but kindness at the Restaurant Dolder when we arrived cold, wet and upset after a difficult arrival. Onion soup is a miracle cure! If you want to experience life at the heart of a mediaeval town, you could hardly do better!

When we booked, the property description said that the bathroom was “en-suite”, but as the apartment is spread over three floors, with the bathroom on the ground floor and the bedroom on the second floor, this was not the case- this description has now been changed. No mention is made of the spiral stairs in the property description. The bathroom needs a shower curtain too -water goes all over the floor if you use the shower head! The streets are very narrow and though we were told to bring the car and cases to nearby the property, I think this advice should be changed. We had a small hire car and struggled to turn in an unfamiliar setting in the dark, in pouring rain. We parked without difficulty outside the gates as recommended, and chose to walk our cases back over cobbled streets when we left, rather than drive down them again. On reflection, we would have preferred the main house, but inaccurate information did not help us decide.
