Our cozy chalet is located in the mountain village of St. Cergue in the Swiss Jura, less than 850 kilometers from Utrecht. The surroundings are fantastic, with stunning views and plenty of activities nearby for all seasons. The chalet, featuring a cozy fireplace, a balcony that runs the entire length of the building, and a large garden all around, is situated on a dead-end street in a quiet neighborhood. The sunny balcony overlooks the La Dôle ski, cross-country skiing, and hiking area. The chalet is divided into two interconnected sections, separated by an outdoor staircase. There is no indoor staircase. Each section has its own amenities and a private bathroom and toilet. Upstairs is the living area with a double bed; downstairs there is a double bed and two single beds.

The charming little village of St. Cergue, with a variety of shops, is a 10-minute walk away; the train station is an 8-minute walk away and connects St. Cergue to La Cure and Nyon, with connections to Geneva (airport) and Lausanne, among other destinations. Public transportation in the area is free with the “Carte Explore” In the immediate vicinity, there are many marked (GR) hiking trails, mountain bike trails, and cross-country ski trails in the winter.

The cottage itself is divided into two floors, each with its own front door, which took some getting used to. We thought the railing around the house was perfect; we spent a lot of time sitting there, gazing at the mountain peaks, soaring birds of prey, and thunderstorms.
We did find the cottage’s interior and appliances to be outdated and in need of an update.Het huisje zelf is opgesplitst in twee verdiepingen met eigen voordeuren en dat was even wennen. De balustrade rondom het huis vonden wij perfect, Daar veel gezeten en gekeken naar de top van bergen, zwevende roofvogels en onweer.
Het interieur en de apparatuur van het huisje vonden wij wel verouderd, toe aan een update.The location was great: in a small-scale “residential neighborhood” just outside St. Cergue, among other single-family homes with plenty of space between them. A quiet area and within walking distance (10 min) of the train station and the center of St. Cergue. We took frequent trips on the free train using the Carte Explore to Nyon and Lake Geneva; after half an hour, you’re in Nyon, and it’s an easy walk to Lake Geneva.
De locatie was prima: in een kleinschalige ‘woonwijk’ net buiten St. Cergue tussen andere vrijstaande huizen met veel ruimte ertussen. Rustige omgeving en op loopafstand (10min) van het treinstation en het centrum van St. Cerque. We hebben veelvuldig gebruik gemaakt van de gratis trein met de Carte Explore naar Nyon/meer van Genève, na een halfuurtje ben je in Nyon en loop je makkelijk naar het meer van Genève.

It was great and just as described; I enjoyed my two-week stay.
Goed en conform omschrijving, met plezier twee weken verbleven.
Our experience at the cottage was fantastic; the four of us (older kids) had a great time and did a lot of things.
We enjoyed relaxing on the balcony in warm weather, and when it was cooler, there were plenty of activities to explore in the surrounding area; we went on quite a few trips in the region, both in Switzerland and in France. The train station, within walking distance, is convenient, and we used it several times to visit Nyon.
The chalet is surrounded by a beautiful garden, with cows and their familiar bells in the background—and we even spotted a chamois. Otherwise, it matches the description perfectly.Onze ervaring met het huisje was fantastisch, met z'n vieren (oudere kinderen) hebben we een goede tijd gehad en veel ondernomen.
Bij warm weer op het balkon genieten, bij koeler weer genoeg aan uitdagingen in de nabije omgeving, aardig wat tochten gemaakt in de omgeving zowel in Zwitserland als in Frankrijk. De trein op loopafstand is praktisch en meerdere malen gebruikt voor Nyon te bezoeken.
Het chalet heeft een mooie tuin rondom met op de achtergrond de koeien met welbekende bellen en zelfs een gems die zich heeft laten zien, verder komt het overeen met de omschrijving.This text is automatically translated. -

Super cozy cottage. Would definitely recommend it. However, not with small children. Upstairs and downstairs is split with a different front door so you have to go through outside to the kids. Certainly not ideal for the nights. Apart from that very verbreden. All present and quiet.
Super gezellig huisje. Zou het zeker aanraden. Echter niet met kleine kindjes. Boven en onder is gesplitst met een andere voordeur waardoor je via buiten naar de kindjes moet. Zeker niet ideaal voor de nachten.
Los daar van heel verbreden. Alles aanwezig en heerlijk rustig.Super cozy cottage. Would definitely recommend it. However, not with small children.
