Guestbook for Bouquetin apartment

On an ice climbing trip to the Ecrins over New Years 09/10, we rented out both apartments to provide accommodation for 6 of us. We found the accommodation perfect for our needs, and in an excellent location that is well situated for exploring the entire area.

What really set the accommodation apart for us was the level of service provided by Helen (the owner). Put simply she couldn't do enough to help us, including offering to purchase supplies before our arrival, providing plentiful information on the surrounding area, and generally always being a smiling and approachable face, regardless of our queries. As such during a spell of unseasonably warm weather we spent a day skiing with Helen, before welcoming in the new decade with her, her friends and family. This truly is a testament to the friendly and approachable nature of the owner.

This was the second time staying at the Bouquetin apartment so really there is no better recommendation than that!

The first time was in Sept 07 with a group of friends for a weeks mountain biking. As I had such a good time I knew I just had to come back with my girlfriend.

The apartment is in the perfect location for Jo and myself as we brought mountain bikes, road bikes, canyoning, via ferrata and climbing gear and all 5 sports are available right from the front door. We have so many great memories from doing the 100km Col d’Izoard round trip on road bikes to mountain biking up the Col de Granon and bombing down the other side on sublime singletrack all the way to Briancon. Pete and Helen are great hosts very warm and friendly with great local info on all sports and always eager to help.

Just wanted to say thanks so much for a fantastic holiday – the apartment was perfect for what we wanted. The family had a great time skiing, and because the apartment is right next to the slopes, it was so easy for us to come and go as often as we wanted. The views from the apartment are amazing! With all the restaurants at the resort, it made the holiday much easier for us. If we have another skiing holiday next year, you’ll definitely be our first choice!

We had a super time in January 2008 staying at Alpsun and skiing and snowboarding in the resort of Puy St Vincent. The accomodation was perfect for a couple with two kids who slept well in the cosy bunk beds.
The skiing instruction was excellent at Puy and the quality of the hire equipment from the shop in Vallouise was great too. We had lots of snow and sun - a perfect family skiing break. Thanks Pete and Helen.
