Wonderful Spot!

This place was absolutely lovely, very clean, and well stocked with essentials. The location was perfect for us, just a little walk to where our family lives down the street. Giez is just an absolutely stunning place and this VRBO was everything we could have asked for in a rental. The host was responsive whenever I had any questions and check in/out were easy.

Heel leuk huis met fijne tuin.

Net en schoon vakantiehuis. Met heerlijke tuin, met voldoende schaduw in de zomer. Gelegen in een rustig dorpje op ca. 10 min rijden van het meer van Annecy. Van alle gemakken voorzien. Keuken zeer compleet, zelfs spelletjes/ speelgoed. Goede communicatie met verhuurder. Badkamers zijn wat kleiner, maar prima te doen. Fijn dat ouder slaapkamer op begane grond is, kinderen kunnen boven slapen.

Lovely family home in a perfect location in the middle of the peaceful, historic village of Giez

Just back from two weeks stay at the property and I can't sing it praises enough....the house was perfect for us (two adults and three teen children) the kids monopolised upstairs (two bedrooms and lounge) and my wife and I downstairs with our own bedroom and en-suite. Living "areas" outside were spot on too...the garden is not directly overlooked and perfect for a bit of a chill out and eating outside (we BBQ'd every night). The cycle trail is about 1 km away and local shops etc a 10 minute drive. Being in the centre of the village was very colloquial but also peaceful....the cows commute through the village every day and are close enough at night for the bells to usher you to sleep. Well equipped with all you need (including WIFI, bikes and locks, golf clubs).....REALLY REALLY recommended ..... thank-you the Dent Family/

Nous avons adoré la terrasse super agréable l'été avec la vue sur les montagnes. La maison est accueillante, chaleureuse, bien équipée et bien située. A signaler, les chambres des enfants sont en enfilade (pas gênant si enfants) et il fait un peu chaud la nuit en cas de fortes chaleur (des ventilateurs sont a disposition). Tres bon sejour.

Très belle maison

Parfait. La maison est très mignonne très bien aménagée. Nous y étions comme chez nous, très confortablement installée. Un peu éloignée des premiers commerces mais idéale pour nous qui avions un mariage à la ferme de GY située juste au-dessus. Je recommande et garde l'adresse pour y retourner.

About the host

Hosted by Natalie Shepherd

Host profile image
We are an Franco-anglo couple, my husband is French and I am British, we have 2 young boys 4 & 6 years. We have travelled extensively over the year but decided to make our home in Annecy, its my husbands home town and I fell in love with the area before we had even met.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the property even before it went up for sale, its has so much character and charm and the garden is perfect for our 2 young boys. Its close to all local amenities, lake, ski fields and the golf course!

Giez is such a pretty village, traditional giving a true feeling of being in the mountains, close to the lake and to nature. Its a great location with small children, safe and quiet with lots of things to do on the doorstep.

What makes this property unique

We like to think our home will give you all the comforts of home whilst being spoilt by the beautiful countryside and town of Annecy. We hope to make your stay as stress free as possible.
