About this house rental
nenufar, guest house - Doubs Regional Nature Park
Holidays "differently"?
Feet in the water, in the middle of nature?
Breathe, take a nap under a tree in the forest?
Live at your own pace, prepare your meals at the "singing" hours?
Be curious about a refined and tastefully decorated interior?
Drift over the water in your canoe?
Picnic on a small wild beach?
In the summer, swim in the river, right in front of the house?
Hope to see the splendid kingfisher?
Watching the light draw your dreams to the surface of the water?
.... nenufar is for you!
Welcome !
Our guest house is an old school, built in 1920 on the banks of the Doubs in Switzerland.

Swimming in the Doubs right in front of the holiday home - the most beautiful natural pool you can dream of! Firming effect guaranteed, given the relative coolness of the water temperature ...
Walks in a wild and preserved nature, VTT, fishing ...
An exceptional house

Natur, Ruhe, Wohlfühloase
Der Empfang der Besitzerin war charmant und unkompliziert. :)
Das Haus ist ein Juwel an einem wunderschönen Fleckchen Erde am ruhig dahinfliessenden Doubs. Die Ruhe da ist einzigartig. Wir werden wiederkehren!

Traumhaus am Traumfluss
Wir haben eine Woche hier verbracht und jede Sekunde genossen! Das Haus ist noch schöner und größer als man es sich vorstellt! Wir haben uns alle sofort wohlgefühlt!
Die Natur hat uns auch überwältigt!
Der Doubs fließt so langsam, dass es den Eindruck hat, als wäre er ein See. Ein langer, spannender, abwechslungsreicher See! Wir haben Eisvögel, Enten und Blesshühner mit ihren Küken gesehen, Hechte und viele, viele andere Fische! Wir haben die Woche mit Kanufahren, Schwimmen und Wandern verbracht und freuen uns auf ein Wiedersehen!
Nathalie und Christian waren sehr nette und zuvorkommende Gastgeber!
Rundum: alle Daumen hoch!

Stunning house in stunning location
You aren't renting a house you are borrowing a home! We were amazed how lovely this house really is. It is exactly like it's description (plenty aren't!!) on the website. Beautifully styled and renovated house in a tiny hamlet on the edge of the river. Nathalie, the owner, is delightful and welcomed us with a tour of the house, explanation about how everything works and offered us drinks and snacks. You definitely need a car to stay here as it is in a remote area but a large town is only 15 minutes drive away. Our three children (14,11 and 9) loved the holiday too. Lots of canoeing/kayaking in the river along with swimming. Wonderful experience at the little restaurant next door having fondue- not to be missed! I can't recommend this place highly enough.
