The Holiday House
Our romantic half-timbered house was built on the rampart of the year 1500 and is called Dove's Nest. Registered with the inventory of the French national Heritage buildings. The house recently came out of a full restoration. A real jewel appeared, the alchemy of the Alsatian tradition and modern comfort. This charming gite we are offering in Riquewihr belongs to the finest places to stay in Alsace. Our luxury gite is available for self catering holiday rentals all year round. It is possible to rent it by the week, as well as for long term or shorter stays, 3 nights minimum, capacity 4 people. Do not hesitate to book a long time in advance, especially for stays in spring, autumn and during the Christmas period (end of Nov. to New Year).

Einfach wunderbar!
27/08/2009
by Lucia Freitag from 97828 MarktheidenfeldWir waren mit Freunden im April 2008 in diesem traumhaft gestalteten Ferienhäuschen zu Gast und können allen, die im Urlaub wirklich ein schönes "Zuhause" suchen, Le Colombier nur wärmstens empfehlen!

Wir sind immer froh zu erfahren, dass unsere Gäste einen schönen Aufenthalt bei uns hatten. Wir haben jetzt viele andere Fewos, gross und klein, aber immer romantisch und gemütlich.
MfG aus dem Elsaß.

Elsass für hohe Ansprüche u. mit viel Flair
15/07/2009
by Gehring from HamburgWir waren mit Familie ( 4 Erwachsene) im Juni 2009 in dieser wunderschönen Wohnung in Riquewihr und haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen! Die Wohnung ist in phantastischer Weise restauriert, mit antiken Landhausmöbeln mit viel Liebe zum Detail sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und dabei mit modernster Technik ausgestattet. 2 Schlafzimmer, 2 exclusive Bäder mit jeweils getrennten Toiletten, ein großes Wohnzimmer und eine Landhausküche mit angrenzendem Esszimmer lassen keine Wünsche offen. Die Übergabe vor Ort ist bestens und unkompliziert organisiert. Das Quartier befindet sich direkt in der Stadtmauer von Riquewihr - unmittelbar am hinteren Stadttor und liegt damit in einem der schönsten Orte im Elsass. Die kleine Stadt ist im Altstadtkern fast autofrei (sehr angenehm!) und bietet aber an den Stadttoren ausreichend Parkplätzte. Für unsere vielen Touren in die Umgebung war dieser Ort ein idealer Ausgangspunkt. Abendliche Rundgänge und Einkehr in Restaurants und Weinkellern im wundervollen Riqewihr haben unseren Urlaub abgerundet. Herzlichen Dank an die netten Vermieter, die dieses wundervolle Appartment Urlaubern zur Verfügung stellen!
