Fun at lac du bourget

This area is stunning, very laid back with friendly people. The lake is so peaceful and just feeds the soul to be there. It’s our second year at one of Sarah and Claude’s properties so I think that speaks for itself x

Sehr schöne Unterkunft in schöner Lage

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Woche im Haus von Sarah und Claude. Der Pool war gefüllt und wurde gereinigt, war im April aber eiskalt, was die Kinder nicht davon abgehalten hat, trotzdem reinzuspringen. Im Sommer ist er sicher ein Traum. Sarah hat uns bei der Ankunft empfangen und war sehr nett. Für 7 Personen + Hund war genügend Platz, Haus, Garten und Terrasse sind groß. Es gibt sogar eine kleine Sauna, Tischtennis, Billard, Dart und Tischfußball. Die Umgebung ist sehr schön! Insbesondere für Radfahrer, aber auch zum Wandern. Lyon ist einen Besuch wert, man erreicht es in etwas über einer Stunde. Vielen Dank an Sarah und Claude, dass wir in ihrem schönen Haus wohnen durften.

We were impressed and felt so comfortable

We arrived very late, which was no problem for the landlords. From the first moment we felt very comfortable in the beautiful house. There was wine for us and juice for the children as a gift on the table and fresh flowers in the vases. The next morning, when we looked out the terrace with its incredible panoramic view, we were completely blown away. Everything was designed and made with love. We enjoyed playing table football and spending hours at the pool. The equipment is very good and everything is clean. The whole house invites you to stay. Everything can be reached within a few minutes by car. The owners are very nice and answered all our questions very quickly.

Tolle Woche in einem tollen Haus

Wir hatten mit Freunden und 2 Hunden eine prima Woche in diesem tollen Haus mit einer wunderschönen Terasse und einem schönen Pool, die wir ausgiebig genossen haben. Sarah ist eine sehr nette Gastgeberin und hat uns viele Tips für die Umgebung gegeben. Die Umgebung ist sehr schön und mit den Hunden optimal. Man kann direkt vom Haus aus spazieren gehen. Falls es uns nochmal in die Gegend zieht, würden wir das Haus auf jeden Fall wieder buchen. Liebe Grüße Michaela

About the host

Hosted by Les Gites de Sarah et Claude

I am (Sarah) English and Claude French. We have four children, a dog, cats and two ponies. We arrived in the Bugey in 2004 and have been renovating the forge du Perou ever since!
After a very successful season with "the gite de la Forge"(https://www.ownersdirect.co.uk/gd/dash/661.6518378.3833690) we had the oportunitiy to buy the Old school house (we fell in love with the house and it's position https://www.ownersdirect.co.uk/accommodation/p6938841).

We feel this area is very special, we have travelled widely and we are always pleased to get back to the Bugey. We want to share this undiscovered beautiful part of France that the French and Swiss neighbours have been keeping for themselves. In 2018 we bought the Gite du Grand Colombier, a more contemporary house. Open plan with a ground floor ensuite bedroom and a stunning terrasse with unique view, we felt that we would enjoy a holiday in this house !!!

Why they chose this property

The house has a French tropical atmosphere in a contempory style; Ideal for get togethers for family, friends and fun.
South facing landscaped garden.
