A SHARING STORY

My name is Francine. As a child growing up in Valais, I always dreamed of welcoming visitors to my idyllic village in a charming B&B. The “Forge” belonged to my Uncle Hermann and the first guests came in 2017.

HOMEMADE BREAKFAST, TANTALISE YOUR TASTE BUDS

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! At the “Forge”, we provide fine food, composed of carefully selected local products. Valais is a food lovers paradise… for you to discover.

AT THE HEART OF HIKING TRAILS

The Bisse de Lens, the vineyards trails or the path of "Crans-Montana land of faith" that leads you through the history of Christianity in Valais. For the most experienced, live the way our ancestors used to, dividing their time between the mountain pastures in the summer and the rural villages in the winter. We will be delighted to provide you personalized recommandations.

ENERGIZE YOURSELVES DURING A WEEKEND IN DIOGNE

Enjoy the tranquil village life in Diogne. Nature and calm are the key words. After enjoying breakfast, why not put on your hiking boots and choose one of the three trails on your doorstep? For Golfers, the nearest green is only 2 km away. At noon, discover the local food in local restaurants…. accompanied by local wine: a Muscatel from Ismaël, a Viognier from Jacques, a Pinot noir from Jean-Alexis or a Cornalin from Joël… all local wine growers. And what about a massage at home?

"Delightful weekend in a lovely place! Thank you for your hospitality."
