Our week in Vosges was wonderful. The house was all as decscibed and had all things needed. As arrival on saturday did not allow us to do any shopping there were also basic things as coffee, dishwasher tablets and toillet paper. The owner was very friendly and helpful in all respects, he made sure that all things were clear to us, made us feel very welcome, recommended nice restaurants and also things for us to do and see with three kids(3mths,9 and 13 yrs) The area around is really fantastic for any nature lovers - beautiful woods, hills,mountains and lakes. Must be wonderful for winter sports too. The only negative thing for us with baby coming was the fact that many places were not really reachable with a pram and we needed carrier but that was to be expected in mountains. Would truly recommend TARTE FLAMBEE a local type of pizza with strong local cheese, onions and bacon...absolutely fantastic for us grown ups and for kids as well. Lovely historical town of Colmar was a big surprise and definitely worth a visit( if only for wine tasting,shopping and beautiful old buildings)Last but not least..winter tyres strongly recommended as it can be sunny and warm with snow on the peaks.
