Neighbourhood

You will certainly appreciate this family resort in the middle of the mountains where it is possible to do many activities without taking your car. As far as snow is concerned, be careful: we are at 1,000 meters, Hirmentaz culminates at 1,600 meters, so snow is not guaranteed. In case of good cold, there are snow cannons. Possibility to get on the snow groomers. In summer, and in winter if there is no snow, a chairlift open for mountain bike transport, mountain bike trail. Please read the last paragraph of our profile before contacting us. Possibility of cleaning on request (80€) Wifi with paid subscription with the tourist office 7€/day, 39€/week. As far as animals are concerned, we accept them on the condition that they stay on the ground floor, do not climb on beds, sofas, or carpets and do not disturb the neighbours, and as a matter of principle if you also accept animals. Inside the apartment, quite steep staircase. Possibility to put gates at the top and bottom for children, on request.

Getting to my home

Good news: possibility to come by public transport from Annemasse (bus 3 times a day) and also Thonon-les-Bains. (Bus line Habère-Poche-Bellevaux-Thonon Y03)

Denise

Denise and Marc (71 and 73 years old): we are retired and love to travel. We have carried out more than 100 exchanges since 2001, on another site that has evolved, and want to refocus on traditional exchanges. We are curious and we travel both in France and abroad. Outside of school holidays, we travel together and during school holidays with our grandchildren (8, 13 and 16 years old) and our daughter, who are therefore used to exchanges. We love hiking, cycling, museums, festivals, architecture, meeting people. We love to cook, read, play, craft... We are interested in birds, animals in general, and are members of the LPO (Bird Protection Line = BirdLife).
