CHARMING HOUSE IN THE COUNTRY

Charming gite for 2/7 people, renovated in 2011, in Birkenwald, a typical little village in northern Alsace (on the border with the northern Vosges mountains, 35km from Strasbourg), famous for its castle, its deer park and its two restaurants popular with connoisseurs.

ENVIRONMENT:

All shops 5 km from the village of Marmoutier and 11 km from Saverne.
