Fantastic property and location
We really enjoyed a great week at the chalet. The accommodation was well maintained and clean and had everything we needed. Nice outside space to sit and enjoy the wonderful view. The owner was very welcoming and helpful and gave us good advice for activities in the area. Excellent location for hiking and exploring the Mercantour National Park. Overall we had a really nice time and would definitely recommend it.

Eine wunderschöne Wanderwoche in Le Boreon
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt im Chalet sehr genossen. Der Empfang durch den Besitzer war sehr freundlich. Alles war perfekt vorbereitet. Das Chalet ist sehr gemütlich und man vermisst nichts. Das Chalet ist sehr gut ausgestattet und auch die WiFi Verbindung ist sehr schnell. Wir konnten unser Auto die ganze Woche stehen lassen und haben entweder die Wanderungen direkt vom Haus gestartet oder sind wenige Kilometer mit dem Fahrrad gefahren und sind dann von dort zur Wanderung gestartet. Die Berge sind wunderschön. Es gibt viele Bergseen und spektakuläre Gipfel. Das Chalet liegt sehr ruhig mit schönem Ausblick. Saint-Martin-Vesubie ist nur 8km entfernt und ein schönes Städtchen wo man alles bekommt. Die Schäden des Hochwassers vom Oktober 2020 sind natürlich nachwievor sichtbar. Dieses hat unseren Urlaub aber überhaupt nicht beeinträchtigt. Wir bedanken uns beim Vermieter für die freundliche Betreuung und kommen gerne wieder. Die Berge im Mercantour werden immer in unserer Erinnerung bleiben.

Wir haben uns in dem Ferienhaus sehr wohlgefühlt. Alles, was man brauchte, war da. Wir haben die Ruhe sehr genossen. Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich. In der Umgebung konnte man wunderschöne Bergtouren unternehmen - die Natur ist herrlich. Wir haben die Zeit in Le Boréon sehr genossen. Vielen Dank an Familie Sicart.

Très chouette séjour à la montagne
Quel joli chalet au départ de magnifiques randonnées. Les propriétaires sont charmants & aidants. Il y a plein de choses en cas d'oubli. C'est très propre et la vue est dingue. Petites choses à savoir néanmoins : l'accès au chalet par les escaliers n'est pas accessible à des PMR ou un peu dangereux pour des petits. Le village de St Martin est à 15/20 mns de route et rien sur place pour faire des courses ou se restaurer. Et petite remarque faite aux propriétaires en partant: il manque de la vaisselle (verres / bol / mugs par exemple ) et le mobilier de jardin mériterait d'être un peu plus "cossu" / "confortable". Ce n'est peut être pas très important pour eux, mais cela peut l'être pour les locataires. Avec toutes ces petites considérations, vous passerez un magnifique séjour, au grand air, chaussures de randonnées aux pieds.

Excellentes vacances au coeur de la montagne
Excellent séjour dans ce petit chalet très bien exposé au soleil avec une vue magnifique sur le lac du Boreon, petit jardin fleuri par ce temps de printemps. Hôtes charmantes et disponibles. Le chalet est bien équipé et au calme. Beaucoup de chemins de randonnée aux alentours où on a pu rencontrer des chamois. Vous avez deux restaurants accessibles à pied et des visites intéressantes à Saint Martin Vésubie et à Berthemont les Bains. Nous recommandons fortement aux amateurs de randonnées et de rencontres avec la nature.
