YOU MUST LIKE DOGS!!!
‘The Little House' was built pre-1771 and fully renovated in 2023. It is a separate and self-contained space that you will have all to yourself. Access to the gite is via the garden. You have to share the garden with our 2 dogs, who are both friendly and love belly rubs.

If you are just passing through or you plan to stay a while, you will enjoy the peacefulness of the Vosges countryside with some Canadian hospitality sprinkled on top :)

The space
It is believed that The Little House was built before the main building (pre-1771), where the family and animals would have lived while they built the barn and house. We don't know for sure, because all of the village records were lost in a fire many years ago. In keeping with tradition, the people we bought the property from also lived in The Little House while they renovated the main house.

As the name suggests, The Little House is, well, little. But how much space do we really need to sleep??

​Once you're inside you'll be on the ground level. This is where the main sleeping quarters and the bathroom are located. You will notice the super cool set of stairs (that we designed and built ourselves) to go upstairs. The second level is where you'll find the kitchen and living area. A favourite place to hang out in. Literally 'hang out' in the hammock chair while enjoying the view out the large east and south facing windows. The vaulted ceiling and original oak beams from pre-1771 also add to the coolness of the room.

​The decor style is a combination of chalet and bohemian = 'chalhemian' :) We fully renovated the interior, new walls, insulation, electric and plumbing. The wood paneling, exposed beams and partial stone wall  were always part of the plan. The boho just kind of happened along the way. 

100% cotton bedding with hypoallergenic duvet and pillows and 100% big fluffy towels. The main toiletries such as soap, shampoo, toothpaste, cotton pads and qtips are also supplied for your convenience.

Guest access
The Little House is completely self-contained with a separate entrance that is accessed via our garden. There is plenty of street parking available in front of our house. We have a safe place to keep your sports equipment when you aren't using it. You will have access to the laneway terrace as well as our garden. You will however have to share the garden with Massai and Scar - who will be more than happy to share it with you, specially if you have bring snacks and provide belly rubs!

The front door to The Little House is accessed via the garden. You will go through the iron gate where you may be welcomed (with wet kisses!) by Massai and Scar. You will go up a small and quirky set of stone stairs to find the main door. Heads up - literally - the door height is short (165cm to be exact) so most people need to duck. But that's how it was built with stones back then, so we decided to keep the original charm.

Other things to note
If you are staying in Tremonzey to explore the area you will need a car/motorbike or bicycle to easily get around. Parking is fairly easy to find everywhere you go.

Neighborhood highlights

Tremonzey is a small village of 300 people where you will be greeted by the locals with a smile and a wave. It is quiet and peaceful with plenty of green space. There are numerous trails for walking/hiking/biking/running to explore right from the front door. The twisty and hilly roads are famous for motorbikes. The closest grocery store is about 5-10 minutes away in Bains-les-Bains and/or Saint Loup. We are surrounded by Thermal Baths in all directions. La Bresse and Gerardmer are both less than an hour away by car. There are plenty of local markets and artisan shops to explore in the area.
