Bluets et Brimbelles

A quick review for Catherine & Thierry at Bluets et Brimbelles in Alsace. They are enchanting hosts. Catherine's patisserie skills were scrumptious. Eat in if you get half a chance. Thierry's knowledge of the fascinating local history was exceptional. They have done the place up so well. You know all this of course, but we just wanted to confirm it from our 3 night stay late in August. A classic AS venue. We loved it. And I'm sure we'll go back, not least for a wee tour in one of Thierry's classic motor cars! Best wishes, Charlie & Juliet Simpson

Amazing stay. Beautiful suite, delicious 3 course meals, wonderful hosts.. who stayed calm even as the tornado ripped across their property!! Could not fault anything.

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!

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

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....?

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!

I can't remember a warmer welcome than from Catherine and Thierry. Their house is beautiful, immaculate and perfectly restored - and the nearby church bells finish at 10 pm! Despite having email problems between France and England, Catherine cooked a superb meal, and I felt that my English was somewhat weaker than theirs during our wide-ranging amusing and intelligent conversation. My first stay here, but definitely not my last. Very strongly recommended.

Absolutely wonderful, Catherine and Thierry are lovely, dinner and breakfast great, the house is gorgeous, the Abricot room was super and quiet. Great to see Thierrys wonderful 2 CV's. Liked it so much we are going back in September.

A warm and lovely couple hosted us for two nights in comfortable, modern rooms. Our kids loved the friendly communal breakfast and we found the location perfect for exploring parts of this countryside.

A fantastic stay! The hosts were so welcoming and accommodating. Their English is perfect and they were more than happy to be 'translators' so that we were able to communicate better with other guests. They have recently completed renovating their property to a very high specification and the facilities offered are brilliant - a very comfortable bedroom and wonderful meals. I would recommend Bluets et Brimbelles as an excellent place to stay.

Absolutely delightful! We stayed with Catherine & Thierry for 1 night on the way from the UK to the Italian Lakes, and again for 1 night on the way home. Both nights were fabulous and memorable – Catherine and Thierry are such perfect hosts, we felt we’d known them for years! Both had spent a year in the UK as students and have perfect English. The house is great, a new renovation which has been done to a really a high standard with great attention to detail. The suppers and breakfasts were delicious……… and as you would expect the desserts were breathtakingly superb. Highly recommended!

''We were delighted with our 1 night stay in this lovely converted house near the Vosges Mountains.Catherine is the most accomplished cook & we left distinctly wider around the girth!Thierry was so helpful helping sorting out problems we had with a motorbike & they were both so accommodating when we had to hold them up at supper time.The bedrooms were large & very comfortable & we were made to feel extremely welcome.A highly recommended place to stay in a beautiful & quiet area,easily accessible to Strasbourg & the mountains.''
