Un havre de paix et de ressourcement

Très belles randonnées, ascension des cols, super balades dans belle Dame Nature. Joie de voir des chamois, des aigles et des marmottes. Une maison confortable où il ne manque de rien.. le plaisir de profiter d'un grand calme, de lire des heures, de se reposer, de jouer... bref de vraies vacances. Merci à Madame Claire Sugier

Au cœur de la montagne

Charmante petite maison typique, dans un hameau calme et séduisant ou il fait bon vivre, au cœur d’une vallée merveilleuse. Idéale pour les amoureux de la nature et des randonneurs. Nous y avons passé de belles vacances. Déconnecté de tous réseaux, idéale pour se ressourcer et apprécier la nature au cœur de merveilleux paysages de montagne

Malerisch und wunderbar ruhig

Ein ganz besonders Haus in einem malerischer Weiler, umgeben von hohen Bergen. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen und wir möchten gern wiederkommen. Der einzige Nachteil war, dass bei starken Windböen Aschewolken aus dem Kamin den Wohnraum vernebeln und es auch bei Kälte keine Alternative gibt, da der einzige Heizköper im Bad ist.

Beautiful town!

The village is wonderful. Very quaint. The house is rustic but served our needs just fine. It had everything we needed. It was well described in the listing. Alise was very helpful and friendly. Fantastic hiking in the area.

Simple but sufficient accomodation. Superb location.

Our stay was far too short and we plan to return to stay for a much longer period.

Rustique maison au fond de la vallée

On a passé deux belles semaines dans la maison de Claire à Valsenestre. Sa maison a une âme; on a s'installé avec l'aise, on était "chez nous". Un plaisir de retrouver le petit jardin après la randonnée en régardant la montagne et du ciel jusqu'au soir. On était que deux personnes mais la maison est adaptée pour récevoir une grand foule!
