Alison & Steve (March 2009)	Hi Matt and Caroline Quick note to thank you 'all' for a lovely stay at Le Mont Dore, we had a thoroughly good time and enjoyed your company and that of the doggies too. Hopefully see you next year! Alison & Steve
Heather & Clem (November 2008)	Dear Caroline & Matt Just to say thank you for welcoming us to your home this week. We really enjoyed the break. Best wishes, Heather & Clem
Audrey and Murray (July 2008)	Caroline and Matt Just to thank you once again for giving us such a great start to our holiday.It is such a wonderful place, the area is just beautiful and life seems so much more relaxed and slightly slower paced but still things clearly get done. A perfect balance unlike most places where everybody is in a rush and trying to do everything at once therefore not getting anywhere or not having time to acknowledge each other.We did get to Chamonix and Murray summed it up really well by saying that around that area people are working in cafes, restaurants and lodgings because they have to work and need the pay and don't seem to enjoy it. The mountains were spectacular and the scenery amazing but it seemed to be taken for granted that tourists need find somewhere to stay and somewhere to eat. The scenery, the mountains are what the area is about.In Le Mont Dore everybody seems more real and working is a way of life and tourists mix with the locals and it is a welcoming place. A warm and safe place to be. Even at Lac Chambon with all the activities that could sell themselves, people were friendly, helpful and welcoming. All around the area in fact.It is great to see how you both seem to have been accepted locally and fit in to Le Mont Dore. You accommodation is excellent and the facilities of lounge, terrace, internet, not to mention the wine and drinks, just added to a relaxed stay and making it comfortable and welcoming.Much more than the other places we stayed (a posh hotel, a basic hotel and a B&B near Chamonix) The others were very impersonal and I suppose more what we would expect.You seem to have the perfect life there and it may well be easy to say that after just 4 days (with good weather) I am sure it is hard work but I can't help but envy the lifestyle so not much sympathy.So a big thank you for spoiling your guests and for being such great hosts.Audrey and Murray
Helena and Wayne (July 2008)	Hi Caroline & Matt, We had a great time in Le Mont Dore last week and I must say that a large part of that was due to yourselves.The booking was easy and your directions easy to follow, even for me which is saying something. The accommodation had a great cozy atmosphere and all our needs were well catered for, eg great breakfast, spotless room, comfy bed and good information about the area . It was also reassuring to know that our bikes were in safe storage and easy to get to. The complimentary wine and cool drinks was a great touch that made the whole stay so relaxed.I know that you are relatively new to the business but what you have done so far is excellent and I am sure you are on the right road to making a complete success of it. We will definitely be back in the future.Kindest regards Helena and Wayne
