By far the best place I have ever stayed at. Felt like a luxury resort but also like home. The owners and their parents were so sweet. I would recommend this place 1000%. Thank you Anthony and family for the experience of a lifetime!

An absolute beautiful property with everything you could need in a stunning location. Giving us peace and tranquility. Immaculately clean, everything was to the highest standard and the beds were the best I Any question we had been asked shortly and the owners were loved. We cannot wanted to visit again especially in the winter because it felt like a Christmas village.

Wir waren sehr sehr zufrieden mit dem Haus und der Organisation rund herum. Sehr unkompliziert. Alles kurz erklärt und uns dann sehr schnell ankommen lassen. Der oberste Stock wurde von uns ganz rodssen und nicht genutzt. Da hatte ich eher das Gefühl alles ist auf 2 Etagen vertilt, aber hat überhaupt nichts gemacht, da alles sehr sehr schön war. Kann ich empfehlen.

Die Unterkunft ist wirklich sehr schön und wir haben unsabsolut wohl gefühlt! Die Ausstattung war wirklich hervorragend und es hat an nichts gefehlt. 😊 Die Kommunikation empfand ich immer als sehr freundlich, aber auf Dauer auch etwas aufdringlich, da imer wieder extra Leistungen angeboten worden sind, obwohl man diese schon mehrfach abgelehnt hat. Zudem waren die Infos über den Chat etwas widthsprüchlich mit der Anzeige und auch der Infowebseite die man später zugeschickt bekommen hat. Für die Terrace würde ich empfehlen Hausschuhe mit zu nehmen, da man sich leider super leicht Holzsplister einläuft. Nichtsdestotrotz, wirklich ein tolles Airbnb und wir würden es jederzeit weiterempfehlen! 😊

Wir waren 13 Personen in diesem schönen Haus und haben uns von Anfang an sehr wohl gefühlt. Wir konnten sogar ein wenig früher das Haus beziehen und es wurde uns alles genau gezeigt und erklärt. Der Whirlpool mit der wundervollen Aussicht war das Highlight. Leider wurde die Sauna nicht richtig warm. Das war der einzige, kleine Wermutstropfen. Als der TV nicht funktionierte, war Anthony innert 1 Stunde da und hat alles zum Laufen gebracht. Wir haben wunderschöne Stunden zusammen verbringen dürfen. Vielen Dank!

We had the pleasure of staying at both Whypers and Spencers, for two weeks and each property had its own unique charm. Our family would have asked for a more comfortable stay. The homes were beautiful maintained, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, with every detail taken care of. With five bedrooms, a sauna and jacuzzi, a gym, and a modern kitchen, the spaces were truly self-sufficient. We could even order food directly, and all information was provided at our fingertips.From the very beginning, Yannick and Meg went above and beyond—checking what we would like to order, responding promptly to every request/calls, and even trying to arrange transport for us at the last minute. Their attentiveness made us feel completely at ease. The guidebook was incredibly useful, and the personal walk-through gave us full confidence that we were in good hands.We felt relaxed and at home throughout our visit, making it a true home-away-from-home experience. Yannick and Meg are exceptional hosts, and we are free for the care and thoughtfulness they put into every detail of our stay.

One of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. We stayed here for a week with a group of 12, five kids (two 1-year olds) and seven adults. The week was simply perfect, the cottage offers everything you could wish for. Meg and Yannick The view, the jacuzzi, the sauna, all is made to create previous memories. I could not have wanted for more. Of course it is not cheap, but it is absolute worth it, and a great price for what you get! I would recommend this for every family or larger group. The five bedrooms are all equipped to provide sufficient privacy to escape the busy atmosphere of the living room, the kids playground upstairs is suitable for young and old, and the sauna and jacuzzi are just a treat, every single day. We had the preference to prepare our own meals, the kitchen (including barbecue) 😊) is suitable for facilitating this for larger groups, and also the provided take away dinners from peakeat are perfect! Location wise, it is very easy to get to the different starting points, bus stops in front, and is still mostly empty. Many thanks for a lovely week, that we will never forget!
