This apartment positions classic Swiss design in a modern space and celebrates minimalist style alongside natural materials. Wood is used throughout, from the hanging lamp to the TV table and headboard. You're perfectly positioned to explore the postcard-pretty mountains at Meiringen and discover their history – Arthur Conan Doyle immortalised this very valley when he left his fictional character, Sherlock Holmes, for dead at the base of the Reichenbach Falls. Detective memorabilia can be found scattered around the apartment and there’s even a museum dedicated to the famous sleuth. The ski lift is just one kilometre away, so you can making a beeline for the slopes as soon as you've fuelled up on breakfast (taken out on your beautiful terrace, of course). Once home, rent a fondue kit from reception and spend an evening indulging yourself in life's little pleasures.

About Switzerland
It’s easy to think of Switzerland as Europe’s goody-two-shoes older sister – the country is home to the United Nations’ European headquarters, luxury watches, and enviable economic stability. That’s before you even mention the romantic Medieval towns, fairytale castles and chateaus, placid alpine lakes, yodeling youths, and cuckoo-clock bell towers. Or the chocolate – oh the chocolate! – which is served on glass counters in old-fashioned shops across the land....
