Review for stay from 28 August 2022 to 04 September 2022

Chalet propre avec bel équipement et une vue bien dégagée. Seul inconvénient, il faut être sportif pour monter les nombreuses marches depuis la place de parc au bord de la route et le chalet isolé. [English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Clean chalet with good facilities and good views. The only drawback is that you have to be sporty to climb the many steps from the roadside parking space and the isolated chalet.
