This contemporary cabin makes it easy to experience the majestic beauty of the Alps' valleys. Outside, you can enjoy incredible mountain views onto the Parmelan, Annecy's imposing limestone plateau. There’s a barbecue for alfresco dining and you’ll find all the essentials you could need to settle in and unwind. Inside, the rooms are simple, family-friendly and with plenty of space to socialise and stretch out. You will need a car to get around here, but it’s less than a fifteen-minute drive to Menthon-Saint-Bernard beach as well as the centre of Annecy where you’ll find a great selection of amenities.
