Thomas

"Un petit chalet très bien agencé, avec une vue panoramique sur la montagne. On est à la fois loin de tout, dans un silence majestueux et proche des commodités et multiples activités de la région. Nous reviendrons."
August 2026

Andrew

"We had a wonderful stay. The chalet is located in a truly picturesque and peaceful setting, surrounded by nature and offering breathtaking views of the Grand Combin. The air is incredibly fresh, making it the perfect place to unwind and disconnect. The location is quite secluded, so having a car is essential. Verbier village is only about a 10–15 minute drive away, making it easy to enjoy the resort while returning to the tranquility of the mountains. If you're looking for postcard-worthy scenery, absolute peace and quiet, and an authentic alpine experience away from the crowds, this is a fantastic place to stay. We would happily come back."

Imke

"Fantastic location, very, very nicely furnished cottage with magnificent views of the mountains. Everything is as described in the advertisement. The contact with Laurent was super nice, and Laurent is very, very helpful! I'm sure we'll be happy to come back."

"Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour dans ce mayen à Sarreyer. Le logement est très bien équipé, il y a tout ce qu'il faut et il est situé dans un endroit paisible avec une magnifique vue sur la vallée. Les instructions étaient très claires et la communication avec Laurent également. Nous y retournerons !"

Liz

"A cosy, welcoming mayen, with breathtaking mountain views from every window. I have never stayed in such a well equipped holiday place. Each time any of us thought we needed anything or wished that we had remembered to bring something we discovered it was already there and easy to find. Laurent and Helen are perfect hosts and always available to help. It was a beautiful place to stay and I hope to go back soon."

"Lovely location, calm and authentic. Magnificent view of the Combins and other valley peaks ✨ The electrical system works perfectly, the wood stove heats very well and immediately creates a cozy atmosphere 😉 We'll very likely come back."

"Nothing to say since we return with the same pleasure as those who discover a beautiful place. In addition, we had a visit from a pretty fox in the evening at the fountain on the path that did not run away and the doe with her newborn trembling on her little legs! What could be better than Peace?"

Charlotte

"We had a wonderful stay at Laurent's and appreciated the peace and beauty of the mountains. The terrace overlooking the mountains was fantastic. We had a lovely hike (and came across deer) and also went snowboarding (20 minutes by car to the lift with free parking when buying a ski pass). The fireplace was particularly comfortable. The kitchen was also very well equipped (coffee, raclette machine...). In short, we had a fantastic stay."

Jannis

"We had a lovely time in this beautiful mountain chalet! The chalet is very cozy and the views are spectacular. Comms with Laurent has been very pleasant and timely and you can tell that both hosts care deeply about guests in their home. The ride up to the chalet requires some nerves haha, but nothing to be worried about."

Simon-Pierre

"Amazing nature stay with amazing views. We were very happy and very lucky to be able to spend a weekend in this very nice place. The accommodation is simple but very well arranged and equipped. We were able to take advantage of it for cross-country skiing and downhill skiing. Laurent is very welcoming and responsive, and did everything to make our stay enjoyable (like starting the stove before our arrival). Thanks again!"

Hervé

"From the already heated interior arranged before our arrival, to the late departure made possible when asked, our hosts always did more than expected to ensure a smooth and exciting week-end. The cottage was one of the best out there. Merci encore :) hoping to come back soon"

"This is amazing old-style cabin with unavailable views and near breathtaking hikes and cute small old towns. Laurent was super helpful when needed. Overall, a fantastic experience and we hope to come back in the future."
