Review Submitted: December 06, 2007, Date of stay: December, 2007
A huge thank you to both of you for letting us your fantastic apartment over Easter. It was just a divine break for us both. Stunning scenery, lovely meals, lots of Swiss chocs and wine. The main things though were the walks - some 3 hours long through deep snow! We just loved it all and will want to make a return trip. All so clean and fresh and healthy - I even persuaded Stephen to attend a wonderful Easter Service!
