The Experience

You feel welcome the moment you step into this renovated mountain house by the village church. Oak, spruce and larch abound, many features have been preserved and all is cosy. Catherine and Thierry love to speak English and do bountiful table d’hotes at the long table, or on the terrace in summer (the gardens are delightful). She is a chef and pâtissier, produces for local shops and gives courses in the large spotless kitchen. He is proud possessor of a fleet of 2CVs and a 1947 Traction Avant – book a private tour and set off to explore the mountains with the roof down… Return to log fires, delicious beds, drenching showers.

Reviews

Hazel and John, Warwick

We returned to stay with Catherine and Thierry within the same year and this time we stayed for a week. What better compliment can that be!? We sampled Thierry's Balade in one of his 2 CV's and had a great morning touring nearby villages and visiting a heritage site sawmill. It was such a fact finding and fun event. The cuisine was excellent as before and we enjoyed 4 evening meals , sharing the table with different nationalities or just our two hosts who entertained us well. We left armed with Catherine's homemade jams and plan to be back asap in 2019.

We had a wonderful stay here. The house is so well designed, and Thierry and Catherine couldn't have been more helpful. They provided us with maps + route for a walk, and gave recommendations of where to eat. Dinner with them was absolutely memorable!


Steph, Haslemere

A lovely, cosy, welcoming place to stay. Wonderful hosts and delicious food. A really relaxing home from home.


Helen, London

This was our second stay with Thierry and Catherine, and 3 years on, they are as passionate as ever about what they do. The rooms are impeccably comfortable, the meals inspired and delicious, and best of all is the interesting, lively conversation with the lovely hosts at dinner! They clearly enjoy getting to know their guests, and helping them to get as much out of their stay as possible. Nothing is too much trouble for them, and they love to find new ways to introduce people to their beloved Alsace. And have I mentioned the awesome breakfast....?


Hazel and John, Warwick

Delightful accommodation of the best standard hosted by an equally delightful couple, Thierry and Catherine. We had 2 super nights here and want more! We had an evening meal on both nights and enjoyed the quality of the cuisine and the chance to learn so much about the area and the aspirations of the Habersetzers. The converted family farmhouse has been achieved with such elegance, comfort and rustic charm retained, that we fully understand their joy of living there. How can we not mention the 2CVs and the Traction Avant? We hope that when we return we can take a 2CV tour and enjoy more!

  • Our house dates back 1753 and always stayed in Thierry's family since it was built... 10 generations ago !
  • Catherine is a professional pâtissière, you will taste her bakeries for dessert at the evening dinner.
  • As a board member of the local Tourist Office, Thierry has a lot to tell you about our local history and heritage sites. Let him take you back in time at the dinner table...
  • Drive along the Wine Road and visit Obernai, Riquewihr, Ribeauvillé, Colmar, all within easy reach for a day trip.
  • Visit the famous Haut Koenigsbourg castle, after a scenic drive from our house, across the mountains.
  • Plenty of hiking trails in the area, including 2 marked trails directly from the house : free ordnance maps and guides are available on site.
