Our Story

Meet the Family

This is our home, and we've opened it to travellers because we love sharing our mountains, our food and our stories. We look after every guest personally — from your first message to the morning you leave.

The Hearth homestay, home to the same family for three generations

The Family

Three Generations, One Kitchen

This house has been home to the same family for three generations. The grandmother still runs the kitchen most mornings; her son and daughter-in-law handle the rest — the messages, the rooms, the walks into the village.

Guests often say the same thing when they leave: it felt less like a stay and more like being looked after by people who actually wanted them there. That's really the whole idea.
