Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Nicole Douard
The chalets and the barns: as the fire dangers were high in the farm, the family built an attic, a separate wooden building that was isolated from moisture and rodents. It was used to preserve the most precious goods: seeds, Sunday clothes, provisions, some papers and family jewels.
Terraced along the slopes, there were small barns fully made of wooden and without openings to stock the collected hay waiting for next winter.

Why they chose this property
This rental has been a family house for generations. It has been fully renovated to meet your comfort expectations. From Christmas 2016, the attic will get bigger. It will have 2 bathrooms, 2 toilets and a large separate kitchen opening onto the living space.
What makes this property unique
Shaped by nature and men, the Vallée d’Abondance is a glacier valley in mid-mountain areas rhythmed by the “adret” (south-facing slope) and “ubac” (north-facing slope) that are called “adroit” and “envers” here.
