Charming Mountain Cottage

We loved everything about this charming home! The owners were extremely friendly, helpful and informative. The trailhead for the hike to the Chalets du Tourrond that the owners recommended was steps from the home. I would highly recommend this home for its close proximity to wonderful hiking, it’s beautiful setting and because the owners were so helpful.

Rest, beautiful view, back to basic.

We had a very restful vacation in a very beautiful environment where chalet from the hosts Helene and Stephane is situated. The first vacation where we choose to not make use of WiFi -> we can recommend it to everyone :) We made some nice hikes in the mountains where you can start from you're front door ! Places you can visit are: Pont-du-Fossé (bread, cheese, small supermarket). Prakic, a very old village where you can make several nice hikes. Thank you Helene and Stephane for using your chalet and the good care !! Kind regards, Danielle and Jurgen

Beautiful house with a marvellous view and in an amazing area.

We have stayed for 14 days in this beautiful characteristic French house. It is located in a very small village with only a few houses and at the end of the road. A very nice place to get some rest and take some distance from your work. Also a very good starting point for trips (on foot) in the mountains. The hosts are living nearby and are very kind and helpful. We have enjoyed our stay very much! Margret and Kees

Perfect for a rural peaceful retreat.

Helene and Stephane were perfect hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the traditional alpine house. The view from the terrace was spectacular and we enjoyed the tranquil setting. Helene spoke extremely good English and was able to recommend local walks. She was very quick to respond to our questions when we booked the property and thoroughly answered our queries.

Petit coin de paradis dans la nature.

Le gîte "Chez Louisette" est un petit coin de paradis pour ceux qui cherchent le calme, la nature et un lieu authentique. Hélène et Stéphane nous ont très bien accueillis. Ils ont été très gentils et disponibles. Nous avons passé une semaine magique au milieu des montagnes enneigées. Nous avons pu faire des balades en raquettes, du ski de fond, du ski de piste, du patinage. Les enfants ont adoré, nous aussi. Nous reviendrons !
