We have just come back from a wonderful week with Valerie and Jean-Marc at La Ferme d'Angele, and we loved it! We stayed in "Edelweiss", a beautiful room with a comfortable double bed on the main floor, and twin beds for the kids on the upstairs mezzanine. Our room was at the front of the chalet, so we had a spectacular view across the valley from our huge window and little balcony. The evening sun pouring in was spectacular. The large terrace outside was also lovely - we had tea there a couple of times, and really enjoyed the wood-fired hot tub too.

This isn’t your typical hotel stay, so please come with an open mind for discovering something a little different. We loved every minute and can’t...
