Our host was on the site, even though we arrived later than planned and our phone wouldn't work to warn her. We got a bit lost just before the village, which is easy to find once you know it. Our host was friendly and welcoming. She lives upstairs but didn't disturb us at all. There was a little problem with the TV and she got an engineer on the phone right away to solve the problem. Comfortable bed, we slept so well. Plenty of hot water in the shower and good heating, too. The neighborhood is pretty, very quiet, and there's public parking very close to the studio. We parked temporarily in a neighbor's space just next to the studio to unload the car. We didn't visit the restaurant just across the street, but it looked very nice. There is an excellent bus service (every 15 mins. during the week) at the bottom of the street which goes to Yverdon and the big shopping complex where you can get everything you need at the Co-op stores (closed on Sundays). And don't miss the llamas on the hill!
