The holiday apartment is situated in Bister. The place is shown on the map. You will also find the location of the holiday apartment marked there. Subject to change: The description text and the travel documents which include the address of the holiday apartment shall apply.
Vacation in architectural monument combines heritage conservation and tourism. Historically valuable buildings are taken over, gently renovated and rented out as holiday flats. The model provides a double benefit: the monuments are given a new future and the holiday guests experience a stay in an exceptional building. The idea is being realised by the foundation Vacation in architectural monument (FiB), which was founded in 2005 by the Swiss Heritage Society.

Car park: There is a covered car park right next to the house. The house is situated on a slope and can be reached via a gravelled path. 

Public transport: The public transport connections are unfortunately not ideal. By train to Grengiols. The train station is a 15-minute walk from the village centre, then it's another 30-minute walk to Zenhäusern. 

Number of persons 6+2: A baby cot (up to 2 years) is available. The house can accommodate six to eight guests (plus baby). The flat is on the 2nd floor. A door leads from the staircase into the entrance hall, from where the bathroom with bathtub/WC and a separate WC lead off to the left. To the right is a corridor. From there you enter the very cosy kitchen and opposite into a double bedroom. Straight ahead you enter the living room with a double bed. From the lounge you enter the third double bedroom. The flat has two additional beds on a sleeping platform, which is only accessible via a vertical ladder. The flat can be rented for six people, the additional beds on the sleeping platform are charged as over-occupancy and must be noted by the guest in advance.

Garden: The partly covered seating area is available to holiday guests. 

WLAN: Is available. 

Open: The house can be rented all year round. No short holidays except at Easter, Whitsun and Ascension.

Pets: Are not allowed.

Altitude: 1080 metres above sea level.

Extras: The partly steep stairs and uneven floors pose a tripping hazard. The doors in the house are very low. The floorboards in the parlour are original and have been walked on for centuries with nailed shoes. Good slippers are recommended. The historic house was not fitted with a soundproof ceiling. It can happen that the guest party in the other flat is heard. There is a road behind the house.

IMPORTANT ADDITION
The Gitsch Hüs is a listed building that has been renovated with great respect for the existing fabric. The tenant is aware of this and treats the property with care. Although the technical equipment is up-to-date, certain functional details do not meet current standards and are a potential source of danger. The tenant is aware of these circumstances. The owner, e-domizil and the foundation Vacation in architectural monument disclaim any liability.

    “Une restauration patrimoniale de haute qualité, respectueuse des valeurs historiques du monument. Une relation entre Histoire et Modernité réussie. Positiv: un accueil chaleureux, parfait et très détaillé par le propriétaire. Un environnement très calme, une vue dégagée et une zone extérieure fort agréable. Un lieu idéal comme popint de départ de nombreuses ballades dans la Vallée de Conches. Negativ: il manque juste un fauteuil de lecture dans le grand salon. Autrement tout est vraiment parfait. Restaurant: Grengierstuba à Grengiols, au centre du village - Situé dans une maison traditionnelle en plein coeur du village. Accueil parfait allemand et français. Nourriture et service de qualité. Ausflüge: Glacier d'Aletsch - Une visite majestueuse et facile d'accès depuis les villages soit de Bettmeralp ou de Fiesch au moyen de téléphériques”

    “Absolute Empfehlung. Positiv: Der Charakter des Hauses ist einfach einmalig. Das Haus ist sehr gut ausgestattet mit allem was man braucht. Restaurant: Erner Garten - Ausschliesslich lokale oder selbst produzierte Produkte. Das Abendmenu war sehr gut und auch Kinder kommen auf ihre Kosten (chicken nuggets und Pommes sind hausgemacht und kommen nicht einfach aus dem Tiefkuhler) Ausflüge: Binntal - Der einzigartige Charakter des Tals hat uns fasziniert. Die kleinen Dörfer wie z. B. Binn sind einen Besuch wert und die einfache Wanderung in der Twingo Schlucht ist sehr zu empfehlen.”
