    Holidaying Here

    The ground floor consists of an open-plan living/dining/kitchen area and bathroom. The living area has a large comfortable couch that converts to an equally comfortable double bed, making it possible for this Chalet to comfortably sleep 4 people.

    The kitchen is fully kitted out with all the necessary essentials, including a fridge/freezer, cooker & washing machine. Gas is the main source of energy for heat/hot water & cooking, while a wood-burning stove in the living area, is an additional heat source or simply a therapeutic experience for a chill out evening (note: the building is really well insulated so lighting the fire in summer can be too warm).

    The circular dining table is situated in front of the double french doors, leading to the deck. This connects you with the outdoors and the south-facing valley views, adding to your dining experience. The outdoor table is also another dining option, with a mobile BBQ also provided (charcoal is not provided and guests must bring their own).

    The tastefully designed compact bathroom is fully functional and quite charming. It could be characterised as the cutest room in the house.

    The building of this chalet was a very thoughtful and detailed process. Not only was the focus on a comfortable, warm and fully functional space but the feel good factor was an essential part of every aspect. It's very much focused on the experience, providing good well-being, allowing you to unwind, relax and switch off.
