Un chalet tout confort…

Trois jours de pluie battante (et de bourrasques tempétueuses) n’ont pas terni notre séjour où tous les atouts et les espaces du chalet ont été largement exploités. Tous les équipements sont au top. Vu la quasi impossibilité de sortir, notre petit « huis clos » familial s’est excellemment passé et chacune et chacun a trouvé son bonheur… Ce chalet est la solution optimale pour parer à des conditions météorologiques extrêmes dans un magnifique environnement ! Seul bémol, indépendant du chalet lui-même, la construction d’un petit chalet sans âme à quelques mètres, qui entrave significativement la vue vers le lac depuis le living… une véritable coup de poing dans l’œil et une faute urbanistique et patrimoniale pour ceux qui l’ont autorisée ! Heureusement, cette magnifique vue est préservée aux étages, en particulier la vue panoramique depuis le 2ème étage.

Chalet très agréable.

Accueil très chaleureux, le chalet était comme sur les photos du site de location. Nous étions un groupe de 10 personnes et nous avons passé un super week-end malgré le mauvais temps. Avec l'espace spa et les jeux mis à disposition nous avons profité un maximum. Merci pour votre gentillesse et votre confiance.
