Your host
Claudia Erni
My mother furnished this holiday home with great care and an eye for detail – and I would like to keep it that way for a long time to come. It matters to me that you feel at home here. That is why I ask you to treat the house as if it were your own. I would be delighted if you come to appreciate my favourite little house, and I wish you a lovely stay in your home away from home.

Good to know
Smoking
Permitted outdoors. Please dispose of all stubs in the ashtray provided.
Pets
Welcome – please register them when booking. They are not allowed on sofas or beds.
Overnight visitors
If you would like to host overnight visitors during your stay, please arrange this in advance.
Doors and windows
Please lock the front door and close all windows when you leave the house – this prevents burglary and storm damage. Never hand the keys to anyone else and report any loss immediately.
Water and electricity
Sustainability matters to your host: please use water and electricity sparingly and switch off lights and appliances when you leave the house.
Kitchen
Please return crockery, pots and cutlery to the cupboards clean and dry only. A chopping board protects the worktops, and please remove any residue from the oven and microwave. Cleaning products are provided.
Drains
No hygiene products, waste, food scraps or fats belong in the shower, basins, sink or toilet – they cause blockages.
Barbecuing
A gas grill and a charcoal grill are available in the garden. Please clean the grill after use. Charcoal and briquettes are yours to bring; if the gas bottle runs low, a phone call is enough.
Garden
The plants are served by a computer-controlled irrigation system and the lawn by a robotic mower. Only the two pots on the terrace are not connected and appreciate a little water.
Mishaps
A broken glass will not be charged to you – but please let us know, so the next guests find the furnishings complete.
Urgent repairs
It may rarely be necessary for your host or a service provider to enter the house during your stay. This will be announced and agreed with you in advance wherever possible.
