Cozy Village Home
This property is charming and its location in a quiet village is hard to beat. The rooms are warm and clean with all the amenities. The owners are lovely, easy to communicate with, and very responsive. If you are looking for an authentic stay in the French Alps, this is for you. Merci beaucoups to Natalie and Francois!

A pleasant stay
We enjoyed our stay in Giez in this very comfortable house. The house was as described on the website, with a view of the mountains. The village is a very typical small French village; we found it very peaceful. We made good use of the patio and bbq area. There was lots to do around the lake; our children particularly enjoyed the high ropes course in Talloires and the toboggan at La Sambuy. Thank you very much.

Lovely family home in a perfect location in the middle of the peaceful, historic village of Giez
Just back from two weeks stay at the property and I can't sing it praises enough....the house was perfect for us (two adults and three teen children) the kids monopolised upstairs (two bedrooms and lounge) and my wife and I downstairs with our own bedroom and en-suite. Living "areas" outside were spot on too...the garden is not directly overlooked and perfect for a bit of a chill out and eating outside (we BBQ'd every night). The cycle trail is about 1 km away and local shops etc a 10 minute drive. Being in the centre of the village was very colloquial but also peaceful....the cows commute through the village every day and are close enough at night for the bells to usher you to sleep. Well equipped with all you need (including WIFI, bikes and locks, golf clubs).....REALLY REALLY recommended ..... thank-you the Dent Family/

Well appointed Family House near Annecy
Quiet location apart from the maniacal bell ringer!! Well equipped and clean. Upstairs shower room was very cramped and with children in mind, for which the cottage catered very well, the water was dangerously hot. Natalie and Francois were very helpful following our lost luggage saga. Great location for visiting the French Alps.

Lovely house, great location for the lake and skiing.
We stayed at the property for a week during half term as an introduction to skiing for our 3 children. It is ideally located for a 20 minute drive to the slopes of La Sambuy, or you can catch the bus that goes there twice a day. So we spent the mornings at Lake Annecy and the afternoons skiing! The accommodation is lovely, well decorated, warm and cosy and with lots to keep the kids amused. Thank you to Natalie for meeting us the next morning after we arrived late the previous night due to the drive from Calais, to help settle us in and orientate us to the area. You have a gorgeous house and just let us know if it comes up for sale!

Quiet, cosy, traditional French experience with the comforts of home, suitable for our family of 4
We loved the house and village and appreciated the attention to detail that Natalie has made. We drove each day to the snow, returning to our quaint little village home each night. The boys loved their upstairs rooms and it was all comfortable and well equipped. We would stay again any time if the year! Thankyou

Spontaner Trip in die Berge
Wir haben kurzfristig am Freitagabend beschlossen wegzufahren, da das Wetter zu Hause schlecht war. Ein Anruf und das Haus war gebucht. Nathalie ist sehr nett und unkompliziert und hat ein wirklich tolles Ferienhaus. Alles ist sehr ordentlich und sauber und die Lage einfach top. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder nach Giez fahren. :-)

Très belle maison
Parfait. La maison est très mignonne très bien aménagée. Nous y étions comme chez nous, très confortablement installée. Un peu éloignée des premiers commerces mais idéale pour nous qui avions un mariage à la ferme de GY située juste au-dessus. Je recommande et garde l'adresse pour y retourner.

Heel leuk huis met fijne tuin.
Net en schoon vakantiehuis. Met heerlijke tuin, met voldoende schaduw in de zomer. Gelegen in een rustig dorpje op ca. 10 min rijden van het meer van Annecy. Van alle gemakken voorzien. Keuken zeer compleet, zelfs spelletjes/ speelgoed. Goede communicatie met verhuurder. Badkamers zijn wat kleiner, maar prima te doen. Fijn dat ouder slaapkamer op begane grond is, kinderen kunnen boven slapen.
