The cozy Alpine chalet vibe, equipped kitchen, and breathtaking mountain views left us in awe. the atmosphere was welcoming, peaceful, and perfect for a family getaway.

My wife says that a playground area for kids would have been a great addition.

Located in a picturesque setting with beautiful views of tussock fields and beech forest, the accommodation offers a cozy vibe with a well, equipped kitchen. Guests appreciate the sustainable approach and friendly service. the shared bathroom is clean, and extra blankets are provided for colder nights.

Some guests may find the off, grid location and solar, powered aspect inconvenient.
