About this property

Glorious views and Alpine meadows - perfect summer and winter retreat

'.....the Staubach Falls and Lauterbrunnen Valley in all their glory' - John le Carré, (Our Kind of Traitor)

A modern chalet apartment with stunning views of the spectacular Lauterbrunnen Valley that are genuinely unsurpassed. The Staubach Falls are over to one side, visible from every room, and alpine meadows lie straight ahead, the views of which are unobstructed by any other buildings. There is nothing to spoil the view.

Located next to open pasture, on the outside edge of a small modern chalet development, wide french doors open out onto a large sunny terrace, great for outside dining and barbecuing, but even better for just sitting and gazing at one of the world’s most dramatic valleys. Unsurprisingly, the area is a UNESCO world heritage site.

Inside is perfect for a self catering holiday - a large open-plan lounge and dining area with cosy underfloor heating, oak furniture and comfy leather settees. The well equipped kitchen is finished with granite surfaces and includes ceramic hob and oven, filter coffee maker, dishwasher and microwave, as well as all other essential equipment.

A large master bedroom with king size bed and solid oak furniture, has ample room for a cot, if needed. The second bedroom provides flexibility for families, with full size bunk beds and a single bed.

The level access throughout the property is often appreciated by both older people and those with young children.

Other features include free and unlimited WiFi internet, international cable TV, DVD, washing machine and drier, ski room and private parking garage. The price also includes all Tourist taxes, end of stay cleaning, bed linen and towels, heating and taxed rubbish/garbage collection, (ie there are no extra costs).

The property is situated well away from the traffic on the main road, but still only two minutes from the Post Bus which runs regularly along the valley. A small local store is only a short distance across the river, but a full range of shops can be found in the village, ten minutes walk away. 

As well as the trains to Interlaken, cable cars link to the international ski areas of Murren and Wengen, including the famous Eiger Northface cog railway to the Jungfraujoch. Further afield the excellent train and Post Bus service makes a car unnecessary.

In winter there is a regular free ski bus service two minutes away, which directly connects to the ski lift system. In addition a cross country ski trail skirts through the grounds of the chalet. 

Tennis courts are 200m away and there is an outdoor swimming pool in the village. Numerous hiking trails provide for all ages and abilities, each with their own spectacular scenery. Similarly cycling opportunities range from adventurous mountain biking to more gentle electric bikes, all available to rent locally. The Trummelbach Falls are an easy 20 minute walk, one of 72 waterfalls which tumble into the Lauterbrunnen Valley, and the gallery behind the Staubach Falls is barely ten minutes away.

In summary, the location is truly glorious.

(Our reviews will tell you a lot more, all of which have been written voluntarily by guests. However, if there is anything else that you need to know, please contact me. During your stay our local manager, who has lived nearby in the valley for many years, is multilingual and available to deal with any problems.)

Wonderful stay
We arrived at the Villa on a lovely sunny day to find a breathtaking view from the front balcony, the unit is in impeccable condition with everything you need for self catering, it is easy to catch the bus from the train station, it is only a 10 minute walk along a lovely river path to town, to shop or catch the trains or cable cars to the other villages around Lauterbrunnen, we had such a wonderful 5 days there, it has to be seen to be believed, Sue is a wonderful host, very helpful and always replied promptly to any of my Enquires.

A beautiful view and a great base
Loved our stay at the apartment. Had a very busy week making the most of all the activities Lauterbrunnen and surrounding villages have to offer. Apartment was nicely done and very comfortable (except small double bed in main bedroom that was a bit tiny for hubby and I) with everything we needed to hand. The unobstructed views down the valley were the icing on the cake - we weren't home much but loved watching the paragliders, choppers and clouds roll around the mountains. Sue was great too - quick communication and very helpful. Can highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Sue Creamer

Host profile image
I am very fortunate to have been able to retire early, along with my husband. Having been a college vice-principle, I was always able to find time to do a bit more traveling than most - now we do a lot, including visits to Lauterbrunnen for both winter skiing and summer walking. Having three grown up children (and a grandson), who equally enjoy being there with us, is an added bonus.

Why they chose this property

When we saw the chalet being built we didn't see the building, we just saw the view! The other chalets are equally great, but this is special. It's a family retreat which we hope will be appreciated by our children and grandchildren for many years to come.

What makes this property unique

Stepping out onto the terrace into the heart of the valley with nothing to spoil the view.
