Great stay in the Alps at Le Tournesol
We had a really excellent family holiday at this lovely chalet. The location, amenities, space, view - in fact everything about it - were just right. Very happy to recommend Le Tournesol.

Unforgettable memories with family and friends in Alps
Me and my family with friends had an amazing experience in the challet. Incredible views and an amazing house which surprised us in a positive way. I recommend it to families with kids at different age.

Très bien
Chalet confortable et spacieux. Un peu sombre dû aux ampoules à led nécessitant une chauffe. Dommage qu'il n'y ai pas de service à raclette et à fondue ( pays du fromage ) ainsi qu'un grille-pain ( nous avons emmené nos appareils avec nous ). Nous avons passé un excellent séjour et comptons y retourner dans les prochaines années.

Fijn verblijf!
Wij zijn twee weken met ons gezin in de zomervakantie in deze woning geweest. Heerlijk ruim, rustig gelegen, compleet ingericht, hartelijke eigenaren. De omgeving is vooral ingericht op skiën, maar ook voor natuurliefhebbers zijn er voldoende mooie plekjes te vinden. Aanbevolen!

Séjour inoubliable
Nous recherchions un grand chalet montagnard pour réunir toute notre famille. Le chalet était au-delà de nos attentes, tant au niveau de l'équipement et de la très belle décoration, des couchages et de la situation géographique. Bien adapté pour 12 personnes. Nous avons passés un très agréable séjour et recommandons vivement cette location ! Merci aux propriétaires toujours à l'écoute.
