The chalet is in a superb and beautiful location for all mountain activities including skiing, mountain biking, walking, golf, para-gliding, tennis or just for relaxing. It is well located for easy access to Lake Leman (Geneva) with its attractive lakeside towns of Vevey, Montreux, Lausanne etc. or the beautiful villages of the White Mountains: Chateau d'Oex, Gstaad, Rougement, or the glacier at Les Diablerets.
The village is surrounded by farms, with cows grazing in summer, producing the milk for the famous Gruyeres Cheese and the truly delicious Cailler chocolate, made and sold in nearby Broc, where you can also visit the factory.

Cozy quiet Swiss Chalet as advertised. Great location for many day trips or Moléson mountain activities. Unfortunately pool heater was out and beds were ok, but overall a fun place to stay. Thank you for hosting us.

Everything was excellent. We had a wonderful stay and Sarah our host was brilliant and very responsive both in advance of and during our stay. The chalet is in such a beautiful location and having a morning swim and sauna was a real treat that sets you up perfectly for the day. Highly recommend the 5 minutes walk to take the trip up the funicular for lunch at the summit. Beautiful fondue, of course! Be very aware of the recycling and rubbish requirements in Switzerland. Far more personal responsibility regarding discount disposal is needed than in the UK. (All very well explained in the chalet welcome pack.)There were 9 of us staying and every one of us would return without hesitation.
