    Très bel appartement plein de cachet

    Très bel appartement en excellent état. Le séjour est particulièrement agréable et on s'y sent tout se suite bien. On ne manque pas d'espace. La cuisine est très bien équipée.
    Le hameau est très calme mais on rejoint vite la civilisation (Samoëns à 5 min de voiture).
    Seul regret, l'ensemble est peu lumineux et pas de vue depuis l'intérieur (seulement du balcon). Mais en hiver ce n'est pas vraiment gênant.
    Nous reviendrons avec plaisir tant le séjour à été agréable.

    Magnifique Séjour

    Oui le parfait existe....Un lieu, un homme une ame...Denis a su rénover la ferme de son grand père avec gout, chaleur et qualité d'équipement irréprochable. Un séjour parfait pas loin de Samoëns et du grandiose cirque de Fer à Cheval dans un petit hameau très calme. Nous y reviendrons avec plaisir!!!

    Great location in the mountain

    Great gite to spend some days in the middle of the mountain. Really small commune with few houses and direct access to mountains.
    The house is quite big with capacity for 6 people. Big common area (kitchen, dinning and living all together). Rooms are also big with wardrobes. It's literally 3-4 minutes drive from both Samoens and Sixt fer a cheval
    The owner, Richard, is super available and trying to help. He lives downstairs of the house so always ready to help when needed. A lot of local tips and recommendations, we did some of them and were great
    Free parking in front of the house
    Internet is not working quite fine, it seems still fiber did not arrive to these group of houses but working on it. But it was very easy to go to a workspace in Samoens for our needs to do some work (bar Fabio in Samoens is great)
    To consider that you would need to take small local road uphill to arrive to the house, so in winter with snow/ice you must need winter wheels or chains
    I would recommend 100% this nice house for your holiday in French Alps!
