Gite Lourse

Un accueil formidablement efficace et chaleureux de M. et Mme Beth et de Céline, qui exerce les fonctions de concierge (des indications très précises, une réelle disponibilité pour donner des indications et répondre aux questions). Le logement est fonctionnel, bien équipé (la possibilité de se garer est un plus) et a du cachet. Et il est idéalement situé (jolie vue avec un extérieur accessible pour en profiter, et accès aux pistes). Si des créneaux restent disponibles à l'avenir, nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir!

Un appartement avec beaucoup de charme

Cet appartement situé au rez de chaussée d'une ancienne bergerie a été rénové avec beaucoup de goût. Il est très bien équipé avec des appareils de qualité. Le réfrigérateur est petit et il ne faut donc pas arriver avec beaucoup de provisions ! L'accueil est excellent par la gestionnaire de l'appartement. Les propriétaires nous ont contactés à distance de façon fort sympathique. Même pendant une période caniculaire, l'appartement reste très frais voire froid le matin et un petit coup de chauffage s'est révélé nécessaire le matin, surtout dans la salle de bain. La terrasse est très agréable si l'on veut manger ou lire à l'extérieur.

Un séjour magnifique et davantage encore

Nous avons passé une magnifique semaine. Vars offre beaucoup de possibilités de randonnées variées. On ne se lasse pas de la vue toujours présente sur le Pelvoux et le Massif des Ecrins. Une merveille pour les yeux! La montée au Lac des neufs couleurs depuis le val d'Escreins (7 heures de marche) est sublime. Le gîte est cosy et en tout point conforme à la description. Il a une âme et il s'en dégage le souvenir d'une histoire humaine. Merci à la personne chargée de l'accueil, souriante et disponible.
