An excellent stay
The house is well situated for visiting the country via bus/train. Pascal gave us his advice on where to go & what to see, depending on the weather and/or crowds. I have stayed in many VRBO homes over the years and this house is probably the cleanest I have had the pleasure to rent.

Beautiful place great location in Interlaken region
Pascal and Cindy’s house was perfect for our family of 4 (2 kids ages 8 and 6) for our 4 night stay. Kids love the beds/rooms in the attic area. We had lots of space to use. This place could easily accommodate up to 7 adults (3 Queen beds and 1 single). Very clean, great location, excellent water pressure with lots of hot water. Washer/dryer was great. We didn’t use the sauna as it was high summer but can see the attraction for a cooler time. Highly recommend!

Perfect
I couldn’t have been happier with our decision to stay here. Wilderswil is a charming, peaceful town that has great views of the mountains and easy proximity to all the fun of the region, without the crowds of Interlaken. With the train station only a 10-minute walk away, plus free parking at the house, it was easy for us to get to activities in Interlaken, Giessbach, Lauterbrunnen, Schilthorn, etc. and come back in the evening to have dinner and stroll through the small, picturesque streets of Wildswil. There are several restaurants near the house. We also bought groceries and cooked several times at the house. The house itself was the perfect size for our family of four, and had everything we needed. Hosts Pascal and Cindy were very helpful and responsive. Remember to ask for the regional tourism card—that will give you free train and bus rides to Interlaken, as well as discounts at Harder Kulm and other spots. The house has two comfortable bedrooms (one with a queen bed, one with a double bed). There is also a loft with a double bed, but note that it has a low ceiling—so, it’s perfect for kids, but probably not comfortable for an adult couple.

Swiss adventure
We have recently returned from our family holiday in Wilderswil and although we had a fabulous time, we were a little disappointed with our accommodation. For the money we paid I don’t think it represented the quality of the apartment. It was much smaller than what the photos show. The dining area was very small when 6 people were eating. There was insufficient kitchen equipment. i.e., 5 cereal bowls for 6 people, not enough of the right size cooking pans for 6. The glasses were a miss match. On arrival, the cutlery was dirty with dried egg on the forks and there were nail clippings on the bedside table. The poor quality of bed linen that did not match, broken zip in the pillow case, none of it was ironed, and the curtains did not fit the windows and let in too much light in the mornings. Outside space for us to sit was lacking and one night the owner lit a Bar-B-Q fire right under our windows with wood producing enough smoke to require us to close all the windows. The owner came and told us to make sure we turn off the lights as soon as we had arrived and not unpacked and settled in. We were provided with two benches 1 chair and a table after we asked to use the bar b que and garden. The outside appearance of the chalet was a real disappointment; lots of weeds and looked unkept and unloved, not by any means a traditional well looked after chalet. This holiday was a special treat for our family and I was embarrassed and disappointed that it did not come up to my expectations. To cap it all, the owner at 9.30 the night before we left, presented us with the tax bill which he required in cash, not card or BACS. Fortunately, although this was a correct charge, we had forgotten about it and only just had enough Swiss francs left to pay it. It would have been better if this had been presented within a few days of our arrival whilst we had plenty of cash.

Rothenfluh is the only cave castle with preserved wall remains in Canton Bern and was already a ruin in 1577. Today the site belongs to the citizens of Wilderswil Municipality. In 2003/04, the Wilderswil Heritage Society and the Archaeological Services of Canton Bern carried out partial restoration and provided new access. As a section of the trail known as the Cultural Path at the Entrance to the Lütschine Valleys, the Castle Path (Burgenweg), joins the two ruins (also Unspunnen Ruins) in the municipality of Wilderswil.
