Cottage \"L'Ecrin\" in the heart of Riquewihr 2-4 people

Being able to stand in the Gite and lean out the window right into the Main Street of Riquewihr was something out of a fairy tale. The room is very nice, well equipped, beds were comfortable. There is a very steep interior staircase leading up to the second floor, for which I had to keep a close eye on my toddler but the keypad access was very convenient and like I said the location is unbeatable. Being able to be out in the village and dawn and dusk was really nice and you can avoid a lot of crowds, plus you get to feel like a local.

Cottage "the Jewel" is truly a jewel in Riquewihr! Fédéric responded to my questions before our visit within a few hours and his wife Florence met us when we arrived. The apartment is located on the main street with wonderful views of the street and the vines on the slopes above. The bedroom has two beds, the bathroom is big with a good shower, a washing machine and even an iron! Although we didn't use the kitchen, it was well stocked. Riquewihr is ideally located on the route des vins and it's loaded with charm. There are many restaurants and each of our meals was excellent. I can't imagine staying anywhere else in Riquewihr! Note that there are about 20 steps up to the apartment, so it's not suited for people with mobility issues. Thank you, Fédéric and Florence for a wonderful three days!

We've had a very enjoyable stay in this tidy and comfortable apartment. At arrival we received a warm welcome (including a bottle of cooled white wine) and got ample information on how to find our way in the area. Very friendly owners. Good communication, also prior to our arrival. The location is awesome: smack bang in the middle of the Riquewihr main street. Thank you so much, it has been great.

We loved our week in the gite ‘’L’Ecrin’, which is above a Creperie in the main street, so perfectly situated to enjoy the daily life of the village. There are lovely walks through the vineyards to nearby villages and it’s not far to drive to Colmar or Strasbourg. The gite had everything we could possibly want for an enjoyable week and is renovated to a high standard. Frederic was a pleasure to deal with, friendly, informative, and very efficient. He organised parking coupons for the week before we arrived which certainly made life easier. I totally recommend a stay in Le gite L’Ecrin.

We went to Alsace and Riquewihr to enjoy the Christmas feeling before Christmas. Riquewihr was a great choice choice as it is in the middle of all those Xmas villages and there was so much to experience. And the apartment was on top of that! Excellent location in the center of the village and charmingly decorated in a modern way. In addition it was well equipped and clean. The host helped us in advance to get a parking ticket for the whole period we were there and gave us all the information we needed for a pleasant stay.
