About this property

Newly renovated comfort in a rustic mountain farmhouse on the Tour du Mont Blanc

Trient is located in the heart of the Mont Blanc region at 1,300 meters, set in a valley nestled below the Trient Glacier. Easy to access but delightfully peaceful, The Trient House is a haven for nature lovers and outdoor sports enthusiasts - the Tour du Mont Blanc trail runs through the garden! This newly renovated two-bedroom apartment accommodates five people and is perfect for families seeking the tranquility of a self-service mountain holiday. As part of a farmhouse built in 1900, the apartment combines modern comfort and rustic authenticity.

Upon arrival, you'll enjoy convenient free outdoor parking and the flexibility of self-check-in (via a combination security key box). The apartment has a fully equipped kitchen including a dish washer and washing machine and a spacious combined dining and living room area with a cozy electric fireplace. For those planning to enjoy a traditional raclette or fondue meal, you will find a raclette machine and fondue set in the kitchen. There is free wifi and both international and USB outlets. There are two bedrooms, one room with a double bed and balcony, and the other room with one single bed and one double bed. Bed linens, bathroom towels and kitchen towels are provided. Storage space is available for skis, bikes and other sports equipment.

• Hiking: With the Tour du Mont Blanc passing right through the garden, you have the convenience of many beautiful hikes starting right at your front door. Nearby, walk along the Bisse du Trient, search for the glass nymph in the Gorges Mystérieuses (2.5km) or ride the VerticAlp to the Emosson reservoir (15km).
• Cycling: For cyclists, secure indoor bike storage is available on the ground floor.
• Snow sports: This is the perfect place to stay away from the crowds but with easy access by car to skiing: 8 km to Vallorcine, 9km to Le Buet and 24km to Chamonix. Trient has a free téléski for children and a shuttle to a 2km groomed sledge run that is just a five-minute walk from the house. There is a 2.6km groomed trail for cross-country skiing around the village and designated snowshoe paths through the forest.
• Food/Groceries: There is no grocery store in Trient, but we recommend a visit to the local self-service farm shop (1 km) which offers meat, cheese and other local seasonal products (payment with cash or Twint). Also in Trient, the Yourte des Amis is our favorite place to enjoy a meal or a drink (reservations recommended due to seasonal availability). There is a small grocery shop located in the village of Finhaut (8 km), or many shopping options in Martigny (23 km).
• Trient is accessible by public transportation (Bus 213 from Martingy).

About the host

Hosted by Tim J

Host profile image
Tim and his family are originally from the US (Seattle) and after working in Hungary for two years, they moved to Switzerland in 2014. The Trient House is a multi-year project of renovation, restoration and conservation as they combine their passion for DIY, their love for the mountains and their respect for the history of this wonderful house and lovely little village.

Why they chose this property

We bought this beautiful old house in 2018 from the grandchildren of the original owners, who built it in 1900. The owners raised eleven children here and many cousins, neighbours and friends grew up visiting this house and filling it with happy memories. Over the years, the family raised cows, smoked sausage and made cheese in the cellar and handcrafted wooden skis in the attic workshop. You’ll find these memories preserved in the construction and décor during your stay, including restored barn wood features and vintage skis.

Now that this house belongs to our family, we are renovating it ourselves with great care so that its history can be preserved and it can be filled again with families and friends. As our dreams are still in progress, you’ll find the exterior of the house and entrance to be rustic, but you’ll enjoy the modern comfort of the newly renovated apartment.
