La Poutre de Perlimpinpin
La Poutre de Perlimpinpin – a historic apartment, carefully restored, in the heart of the Bernese Jura. For an authentic, peaceful and restorative stay, far from mass tourism.
The murmuring Suze river, the Chasseral mountain in the background. In Courtelary, time slows down. Time to wander through the old village counting its fountains, to greet people along the way, to follow the river, to lose yourself in the hills. Bakery, grocery store, restaurants, tea room – everything is right there, just steps away. And the train station 10 minutes on foot, for whenever wanderlust calls.
Louise and Chasse-neige, our two dwarf lop-eared rabbits, are looking forward to meeting you.
At the heart of an old farmhouse dating back to 1767, the apartment has weathered more than two centuries before being carefully restored, for those who love places with a soul.
At the start of the renovation work, we discovered a load-bearing roof beam that was holding up with nothing to support it, as if by magic! The name came naturally.
La Poutre de Perlimpinpin is an apartment with something inexplicable about it: beams that still carry the memory of the place, carefully chosen materials, and a past you can still sense in its volumes.
