Contemporary chalet at the foot of the Risoux forest
Our atypical second home, designed by an architect, is located in the family resort of Les Rousses (just a few kilometres from the resort centre), in the Haut-Jura. We love coming here in summer and winter, because the light floods through from morning to night. This brand-new house is easy to live in as a family or as a couple: -cook your vegetables in front of the forest -enjoy your hot chocolate in the living room facing the Swiss mountains, in a comfortable XXL sofa enjoy an aperitif on the plant-filled roof top -sunbathe in front of the fir trees on the protected terrace go snowshoeing or cross-country skiing across the garden -go golfing 3 minutes away by car -go mountain biking in the Risoux forest -Take advantage of the family or sports tips left by the owners, who love their region. -wake up facing the mountains with your coffee/chicory under a warm duvet -let the children read in their alcove in the dormitory room -enjoy the view whatever the weather -enjoy our board games in bad weather

Nous avons passé un séjour excellent à Bois d’Amont. La maison est très accueillante, lumineuse et spacieuse. Elle est aussi très bien équipée et nous avons pu cuisiner notre repas de Noël sans souci. Nous avons bien profité des environs avec des balades en nature. Agnès et Stéphane ont été très réactifs et flexibles, merci à eux. On recommande sans aucune retenue.
Très bel emplacement, à proximité immédiate des sentiers de randonnées et de trails. Situation au calme sans être éloignée des commodités.Maison d'architecte, avec magnifique pièce de vie très lumineuse, et une belle vue. Grande cuisine bien équipée.Un super séjour, dans un cadre reposant !Merci à Alexandre et d'Agnes pour leur très bonne communication et leur disponibilité! A recommander!
très beau chalet; mention particulière pour le salon/cuisine avec sa vue transversale et son atmosphère extrêmement chaleureuse et invitant à un retour sur soi.
superbes randonnées de tous niveaux.
présence de beaux jeux de société
Nous avons passé un bon séjour dans le chalet. Les chambres sont petites, mais avec une literie de très bonne qualité, et la pièce de vie à l’étage est très agréable !
Nous n’avons pas eu de chance avec le temps mais avons pu nous retrouver en famille et faire de belles visites (en forêt, à la fruitière de Comté du fort des Rousses, au musée de la boissellerie à 10 min)
