We had a wonderful week, the house, grounds, views and lake were all amazing. The wine selection available to buy was a big hit. Alexandra and her Father were a great hosts and really added to our experience. We would definitely love to stay again.

Parfait week-end entre amis. La villa est fidèle aux photos et les gérants sont très gentils et serviables.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Bagatelle. The Villa itself is absolutely perfectly situated on the lake with beautiful views, walking distance to both Menthon-St-Bernard, and Veyrier-du-Lac. The house is perfectly designed to be incredibly comfortable for a large group (we were three adults and three children). The pictures are an absolutely faithful representation of the property. What they miss is the added value of Alexandra's and Michel's hospitality. Alexandra has put together an incredibly useful book of things to do in the area in every possible area of interest. She recommended a private chef who was the best, and the most reasonably priced private chef we have ever used. She went to the grocery store for us prior to our arrival, to ease our entry. She arranged a boat rental for us, and recommended a wonderful outing for lunch to Col de la Forclaz, which the whole family loved. Michel, too, was so generous and friendly, greeting us with two bottles of wine, and even showing my car-obssessed son his car collection. Oh, also, Michel has an excellent wine cellar with excellent vintages from excellent producers throughout France. We stopped at Beaune on our way to pick up wine for the trip, but that was totally unnecessary, as we could have simply had a wider range of choices (including even mature Haut-Brion) that were also very reasonably priced, and properly stored. Annecy was the highlight of our trip, and one of the favorite places we have visited ever. There was so much to do, from hiking, to boating, to eating, to swimming, to shopping, and beyond. The hospitality of the Montants and their beautiful property were essential to making it such a lovely stay. We hope to return!
