LIVE IN AN OLD FORGE
Stay in a peaceful village in the heart of Valais
IN HARMONY WITH NATURE
In the heart of a peaceful hamlet 10 minutes from Crans-Montana, our B&B will delight nature lovers looking for an authentic Swiss experience. In summer, go for a stroll along the Bisse de Lens or discover the wonderful treks offered by the region. In winter, the ski slopes of the prestigious resort of Crans-Montana can be reached by public transport or a 10-minute drive.






OUR STORY
My name is Francine. In 2017, I fulfilled my dream: to renovate the family forge into a Bed and Breakfast. I now share my time between my family, my job and welcoming guests to “La Forge”. I was born in Montana Village and am passionate about the region, its wines and its fine food. A Mediterranean microclimate gives us the opportunity to grow many regional products. My passion is to share them with you and to help you discover the local people who spend so much time and care crafting these delicacies. For breakfast, you will sample these great local products. The fresh air, the sun, the mountains inspire me very day.

EXCELLENT Based on 49 reviews Posted on Renate20/10/202510Verified ☺Dieser Platz ist ganz besonders, eine Oase der Ruhe. Auch die Aussicht auf viele Viertausender ist fantastisch. Die Gastgeberin Francine hat hier mit viel Liebe und Gespür ein außergewöhnliches B&B geschaffen. Die Einrichtung ist komfortabel und geschmackvoll. Wir genossen auch die Möglichkeit, im Gemeinschaftsraum mit Küche zusammenzusein. Sogar ein Kaminfeuer wurde angeboten. Das Frühstück, abwechslungsreich und mit regionalen Zutaten liebevoll serviert lässt keine Wünsche offen. Ein Auto ist vorteilhaft aber durch die nahe Busverbindung auch nicht unbedingt erforderlich. Wanderwege gehen am Haus vorbei, aber das nahe Crans Montana hat ein umfangreiches Wander- und Freizeitangebot - und auch die zauberhaften Talorte, wie zB Sion, sind auch nicht weit entfernt.Posted on Larysa09/10/202510Verified Ми в захваті.
