Our story
Welcome to our world! We are Marie and Jean Dupont, natives of Alsace and passionate about our region. After working for more than 20 years in luxury hospitality in Strasbourg, we decided to embark on the adventure of rural cottages in 2015.
Our dream was to create warm places where travelers could discover authentic Alsace, away from traditional tourist paths. We lovingly renovated these two old Alsatian houses, preserving their character while bringing all modern comfort.
Today, we are happy to share our passion for Alsace with our guests from all over the world. We take pride in offering personalized welcome and making people discover the hidden treasures of our beautiful region.
