Firstly the hosts are excellent! Great communication and extremely friendly, you could not have better hosts! The property itself was very clean and had all amenities needed for a week stay! We stayed over New Year for a skiing holiday! The village itself is long and the property is at one end! It is a 2 minute walk to ski hire shop (only one in village from what I could tell). Although we never used the ski bus to the ski lift is also a 2 minute walk! The lift is not a walkable distance. The village is quiet, a few restaurants (need booking in advance) and a couple places for a beer! The only pizzeria is next to the ski lift so not walkable! Cervinia is a much more likely village with loads of places to eat (need to book). We used our car to drive to Cervinia each morning as my youngest son had lessons booked(no spaces in Valtournenche). There is plenty of free parking but need to get there early. The skiing was fantastic, a great area for beginners and intermediates! Wide slopes and we had loads of snow! If you have young children learning to ski then Valtournenche has better facilities! The ski passes are expensive(than was expecting)! I would strongly advise not to buy the international pass to get to Zermatt! Only buy the daily upgrade! During our stay the connection to Switzerland was closed every day due to high winds so we never got to ski on the Matterhorn glazier or into Zermatt which was the only disappointment of the holiday!

Soggiorno gradevole

Proprietari cortesi e puntuali anche per fornire consigli su trekking da compiere durante il soggiorno. Alloggio funzionale e fornito di piccoli comfort (caffè carta igienica sapone...). Ottimo soggiorno per la scoperta della valtournenche

Tutte le caratteristiche per sentirsi "a casa". Complimenti !!!

Einen Tag vor Anreise erfuhren wir,der Check in ist um 18Uhr! Die Bitte um einen früheren Termin wurde abgelehnt.wir warteten vor dem Haus bis 18.05! Als wir im Nebenhaus klingelten kam die Tochter der Vermieterin, die schon seit Stunden zuhause war, und übergab uns den Schlüssel mit dem Kommentar Mutter muss arbeiten. Das „Doppelbett „ ist maximal 1,30 m breit mit einer erhöhten Holzumrandung. Die Matratzen stark durchgelegen. Diese Kombination führte dazu, dass wir nur sehr schlecht schliefen, und uns beiden der gesamte Rücken wehtat. Die „Couch“ im Wohnraum ist ein Zusatzbett und so hart, dass man auch hier nicht lange sitzen konnte, es blieben nur die Stühle. Die Vermieterin haben wir in den 10 Tagen nicht einmal gesehen! Die Kücheneinrichtung ist alt und unzureichend z.B. kein Dosenöffner. Es hätte auch darauf hingewiesen werden müssen, dass die Zufahrt von der Hauptstraße für große PKW sehr schmal und bei Schnee nur mit 4WD oder Ketten befahrbar ist. Wir sind wegen unserer starken Rückenschmerzen vorzeitig abgereist!

Had a perfect skiing holidays! Fireplace in the apartment is very romantic.

Casa Mentò è un delizioso appartamentino su due piani, situato in una zona tranquilla, silenziosa e lontano dal traffico della statale, alle porte del paese di Paquier Valtournenche. Ci si accede tramite una breve stradina un po’ stretta ma percorribile e con la possibilità di parcheggio proprio davanti casa. L’appartamento è ben tenuto, curato e molto pulito, dotato di tutto l’occorrente. Valentina e la sua famiglia sono stati molto discreti ma allo stesso tempo estremamente gentili e disponibili nel venire incontro ad ogni nostra necessità. Sul retro della casa c’è un giardino con diversi giochi (dove la nostra bimba si è divertita tantissimo) e uno spazio riservato con sdraio per prendere il sole + tavolo e sedie dove poter mangiare all’aperto o fare una grigliata. La zona è ben servita, a pochi passi dal centro del paese e a ns. parere un ottimo punto di partenza per poter visitare tutta la Valle. CONSIGLIATISSIMO!
