This is a lovely peaceful gîte with pretty mountain views. A well-equipped property, with nice furnishings and a good kitchen. Comfy beds and adequate heating for those chilly mountain evenings! You definitely need a car here, placed as it is, but it’s great for hiking and a 30 minute drive from Aix les Bains and 50 minutes from Annecy. Small gripes: Only one mirror (in the bathroom) in a property which sleeps 6. It would benefit from a mirror in the bedroom. Annoying automatic lights in the stair area and WC. Perhaps it’s a safety feature, but it’s too bright in the middle of the night for WC visits. Pellet stove is cosy, but very noisy so it’s hard to watch TV when it’s on. The main annoyance was the fact that the listing did not specify linens and cleaning were not included. The gîte is managed by a company, so the fault probably lies with them and not the host with this omission. We arrived without bedding or towels, which the host kindly provided when it was mentioned, but I had carefully checked the gite listing on the Vrbo app prior where there was no mention of this. Additionally, come check out time the host ‘reminded’ us we had to clean the property as it wasn’t included. Nowhere up until that point had there been mention of this need - not on the terms and conditions in the listing, nor at time of booking. I don’t mind cleaning not being included but feel this should be made clear during the booking process.
