Great family skiing chalet
Everything was well thought out to make an ideal base to stay at during out skiing trip. The only thing to note would be garage was a very tight fit.. width wise if you have a large car. Plenty of length & height but thought the driver may need to climb out through the boot!. ( we have a VW Touareg) Having said that its great to have a garage and once there we had no need to get it out until we left.

Fabulous stay in a fabulous setting!
We have stayed in various apartments and homes and this is by far the best equipped EVER! The apartment had everything and more to make our stay comfortable and the location of the property was just about perfect with views from the patio of the mountains and the Staubbach waterfall. Diarmuid came to greet us and gave us useful advice about the apartment and the area. The bus stop was less a minutes walk and this whisked us to the station in Lauterbrunnen in only 4 minutes. From here everything in the local area and beyond was easily accessible. Our favourite was taking in the fabulous views from Harder Kulm whilst having a relaxing drink! This part of Switzerland is a spectacular and special place made better by having such a comfortable place to come to at the end of each day.

Lovely location near but outside of Lauterbrunnen
My wife and I, and our two grandchildren stayed here for a week. The location, less than a mile from downtown Lauterbrunnen, is ideal, quiet, residential, and far from the bustle and noise of the many tourists in town at high season. The apartment is ideal for 4, with two bedrooms, a living room with dining area, and a well equipped kitchen. The bathroom has a good washer and dryer. There is also parking nearby, and with a bus stop only 100 feet away you can get into Lauterbrunnen to the train station within a few minutes; buses run every 30 minutes during the day. It was very hot; so, we set off early and tried to return by midafternoon before it got really broiling. Because it cooled at night, we could open the windows and doors to cool the place, and when we closed things in the morning, the apartment remained quite cool throughout the day. We purchased food at the well stocked COOP and cooked all of our dinners, made breakfast, and packed sandwiches for lunch on our outings. You can get to all of the mountain places by train from the Lauterbrunnen train station. We went to the Jungfraujoch, Murren, Gruetsalp, Grindelwald First, and went down to Interlaken to reach Brienz and the Brienzerrothorn. We had a glorious time, and the property was an ideal staging point.

Five day family vacation
Spent five days and four nights in Lauterbrunnen, and just loved this property! Well equipped, convenient location, easy parking and very clean. Perfect place for us to return to after our adventures that have us way more space than a hotel room. Owners are very helpful, quick to respond, and excellent t hosts. Highly recommend!
