In brief

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small property, limited rooms — With only 7 rooms, availability can be tight, and the homestay may not suit those seeking a full-service hotel with restaurant and reception.
  • Check-in ends at 22:00 — Standard check-in is from 14:00 to 22:00, so late arrivals need to arrange with the host (guests did arrive at 2.30am, but it required waiting on their part).
  • Shared facilities — The kitchen, lounge, and garden are shared among guests. Those wanting full privacy in a private bathroom room may find common areas a drawback.
  • Off the main centre — The homestay is an 18-minute walk from the ski resort and a short drive to the town centre. Guests mention using minibuses for some trips, so a car or bus is useful.

“The owner greeted us warmly and gave detailed instructions about the house and the area. The home was very well equipped and the beds were comfortable. Even for one night we had a memorable stay and plan to return longer. The mountain view from the balcony and the garden barbecue were highlights. Having a river in the back garden was amazing. The hosts were so friendly they sometimes joined us for meals. Clean, beautiful setting, with a bus stop and supermarket close by.”

“We had a fantastic stay. The owner was kind and waited until 2.30am for our late check-in. The room was comfortable with a spacious bathroom and cosy pillows. Location was perfect for ski resorts and the river view was lovely. The lounge with big windows over the stream was a relaxing spot. The shared kitchen was clean and well equipped, with shops and restaurants within 1km. The owner arranged pick-up and drop-off transport, and parking was free and easy. A minibus nearby connects to hiking trails.”
