Great views, peaceful relaxed atmosphere :)

Review Submitted: July 26, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
An amazing part of the world, this apartment was really cosy, in a lovely block just off the beaten track, it was exactly what we were expecting, and the addition of a TV made it perfect for the night we were snowed in!
The peaceful, relaxed atmosphere was perfect for an off season get away, with Annecy and Fergerves just 20 mins away we found the mix of the quiet mountain villages and larger towns perfect. We did alot of walking around the hills and mountains right outside the apartment with trails going in all directions, up and down! We also ventured into Fergerves for some ace mountain biking. There is so much to see and do in the local area. We found some great restaurants and bars in the local towns, we visited in the early season so some of the mountain top restaurants were not yet open but we are assured by the locals they are great!
The owners were very efficient with all aspects of the holiday booking, really friendly and easy to deal with.
We would recommend this apartment to anyone, it is very peaceful and picturesque, and we will definitely be back :)

Paragliding/Relaxing Holiday

just B Manchester, England
Review Submitted: October 7, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We were very familiar with the area, my husband having flown from Col de la Forclaz on many occasions. Having usually camped in Faverges we were looking forward to some creature comforts. We were not disappointed. The appartment is clean and neat and very quiet with all the facilities necessary. The bedroom contained a bunk bed and the double bed was the sofa. There was adequate linen for the beds.

It is a long drive to get provisions though. Another drawback was the lack of mobile reception which gave our friends some problems in getting hold of us.

My husband liked the place so much he stayed for another two weeks after I left, lucky devil. I was just glad not to get wet every time there was a storm and I could spend hours on the balcony looking at the mountain.

We would definitely stay again and recommend it to anyone with a good car who wants a quiet retreat within reach of all the tourist sites.

Holiday in appartment L'Oree du Bois,Montmin

Hus Windermere,Cumbria
Review Submitted: August 12, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2008
In May 2006 we had a relaxing week in this quiet, functional appartment in the mountain village of Montmin.The small town of Annecy with its beautiful lakeside setting,romantic canals and famous Sunday market is only a 20 minute drive away.The centrally located shopping centre"Courier"caters for every taste.We were very pleased with the quality and service of the lakeside restaurant "Chalet du Port" in nearby Menthon St. Bernard.Chamonix(about an hour's drive) offers numerous walking/hiking paths for all ages and the trip from Chamonix village in the "Montenvers" cog wheel train to view the "Mer de Glace" glacier was spectectular.
We have no hesitation to recommend a visit to this beautifully located appartment.
Hans and Rachel.
