The Experience

The 16th-century stone and timber priory, the oldest house in this remote narrow hamlet, has the same glorious views as ever, out over the rooftops to the surrounding peaks. Inside is all stone and timber, too, beautifully architect-renovated and furnished with a cleancut imaginative eye. The big living room has a stunning arched stone ceiling, the perfect foil for high-modern scarlet chairs and table cloths. Delighted with their Alpine venture, the charming new young owners will offer you a big traditional bedroom or a funkier cave-like room with stone nooks for lights and a sunken shower. Superb.

Reviews

Nick, near Cambridge

Charming B&B with friendly hosts amid wonderful scenery in the French Alps. Very comfortable room and very good artisan food. Thank you for your hospitality. Nick - Cambridge


Steve, East Harling

Set in a tiny hamlet, Tom and Wim’s house is a fantastic meld of really ancient stonework and contemporary interior design - entirely to our tastes. We stayed in the Cervus gite which was equipped with everything necessary to make a home away from home, including a very comfortable bed and good shower. We spent a fair amount of time in the garden, reading and enjoying the peace and tranquility. Tom and Wim are very friendly people and excellent hosts. This really is the perfect place to use as a base whilst exploring the area.


Stan, Bussum

Tom and Wim are great ambassadeurs of the good live in the Southern Alpes of France. They spoiled us with very nice food, local wines and selfmade appatizers. The house is lovely and looks out over the mountains. We enjoyed our ski holiday on the nearby ski slopes of Vars, Risoul, Serre Chevalier with our kids, but La Maison du Guil will also be splendid to relax in spring, summer or fall.


Charlotte, Oxford

What an absolutely perfect gem: Wim and Tom are fabulous hosts, the rooms are beautiful and the house is in stunning, mountainous countryside. Breakfast is delicious, with a daily changing array of homemade jams, local cheeses and fresh bread. We've had a very special week of walks, great food, and we're hoping to return as there is still so much more to do.


Elizabeth, Earith, Huntingdon

What a fabulous place to stay. Wim and Tom spoilt us with excellent food, a beautiful special room in a great house, advice on walks and restaurants and lovely kind friendship, who could ask for more. There are lovely walks from the house and amazing scenery on the doorstep...beautiful part of the world
