Sometimes, when one is in a nostalgic mood, one goes back in time and dreams of small villages, away from
the madding crowd, where people still say hello when crossing each other. Where there is beautiful nature
around and the authentic architecture is respected. Where you still have the personalized luxury boutiques
instead of the multistory & multinational chains. Where you find cozy restaurants and fancy hotels where
food is freshly prepared and not the fast food places which are flooding our towns nowadays. A place where
you could well encounter a classic movie star such as Julie Andrews, Ernest Hemingway, Roger Moore,
David Niven, Audrey Hepburn or Elisabeth Taylor. Well , when you wake up from that dream you are in
Gstaad!

The typical chalet was built in the 70’s by 4 friends from Zurich who wanted a family spot in the country.
They found a plot of ground in “Grund bei Gstaad”, just a stroll from the Promenade in Gstaad, along the
river Saane and with a beautiful view onto t he fields and mountains which are as impressive in winter as in
summer. Instead of dividing the place horizontally like an apartment, they decided to split vertically creating
4 small houses, a clever insight which adds to the charm and privacy of every in dividual unit. As such, every
room in the house is connected by a small staircase.

The house is rented as a whole and comes with a professional concierge welcome who can also help you in booking transfers, restaurants, babysitting, ski passes etc.

Instead of dividing the place horizontally like an apartment, they decided to split vertically creating 4 small houses, a clever insight which adds to the charm and privacy of every individual unit. As such, every room in the house is connected by a small staircase. Upon entering the house, you are immediately immersed in the Alpine atmosphere with old wooden paneling and lovely authentic furniture.

From there you can go 6 steps up or down towards the 2 bedrooms with en suite bathrooms. Another 6 steps up you arrive in the open kitchen/dining room with the open fire and large, south facing, balcony offering a magnificent view onto farms, woods, fields, and mountains.

In summer the fields are full of flowers, and you hear the cowbells clinging as where in winter you see people on foot, by horse or skiing by, through the magic white landscape. Eventually 6 more steps up you reach the cozy sitting area with fluffy chairs and sofas. There is free parking available for 2 cars.
