Our holiday house is located 2 miles away from the village of Lapoutroie, on the Alsatian side of the Vosges Mountains. Between woods and meadows, a lovely little road will you get there after a 2 mile drive.
Here, you are in the
middle of the «Canton Vert» («Green Canton»), in the «Welche
Country», a small cultural and linguistic exception in Alsace. Dialect
is replaced by a roman patois, the «berawecka» becomes the «hogueï»
(you‘ll taste it yourself), the witch is called «la Jnach» 
,
and we drink some mulled wine over the «Tchénivrér» fire,
...
You are also very close to the most lovely and famous villages of Alsace : Kaysersberg (7 miles), Riquewihr (13 miles), Ribeauvillé (14 miles), Turckheim (16 miles), etc... and the «Wine Road» runs just down the valley, at Ammerschwihr. Colmar is not far away either (15 miles).
At an elevation of eight hundred meters (2500ft), the surrounding countryside is very quiet and well preserved. From here, you have a wonderful view of the small valley of Bambois, the valley of Lapoutroie, and in the background, the Alsatian plain (you can even see the Alps when the weather is clear).

The countryside seen from the farm and the holiday house
The farm is surrounded with meadows and forests, full of roe-deers, deers, foxes, badgers, black squirrels, and many birds (of which I don’t know the name in English !)
