Step into the charm of this over 100-year-old home, nestled in the picturesque village of Bönigen — between two majestic mountain ranges and just a 5-minute bus ride from Interlaken Ost. With Lake Brienz nearby and nature all around, it's the perfect place to relax and recharge. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat, a change of scenery for working remotely, or a family-friendly escape, the apartment offers a cozy and inviting space to unwind. In the garden, you'll find a table and chairs just for you — ideal for enjoying meals outdoors or simply soaking up the fresh mountain air. On request, you're welcome to use the BBQ (I’ll happily show you how it works), and you’re free to pick fresh herbs straight from the garden. There’s also a ping pong table with a couple of rackets for a bit of lighthearted fun.
