This smart apartment is in the heart of Meiringen in Switzerland, close to the setting of Sherlock Holmes’ infamous (spoiler alert) fictional – and faked – death at the Reichenbach Falls. The town has taken to its mysterious connection well, building a Sherlock Holmes Museum in a picturesque former church that fans of the sleuth will want to pay a visit to. For those visiting the area hoping for more skiing than sleuthing, you're also in luck. The ski region of Meiringen-Hasliberg has a total of fourteen lifts and twenty ski runs and is a kilometre away, while further afield you’re within easy reach of Axalp, Schilthorn and Jungfrau. For summer stays, we recommend bringing your hiking boots – there are hiking paths within fifty metres of the apartment, and you’re surrounded by stunning scenery such as the Aare Gorge. The apartment itself, part of an aparthotel, offers a serene and comfortable place to retreat to after a day of activities, with mountain views from the living room and private balcony. For extra relaxation make use of the building's sauna, while the storage room is great for keeping your bikes and skis secure.

Enjoy a cup of coffee there in the morning before rustling up breakfast in the kitchen, then grab your skis and snowboards and hit the slopes.

Lemon On The Mountain

Experience the best of Switzerland and Italy, in this sleek and minimal apartment located in southern Switzerland’s, Italian-speaking resort city.  A stay in Locarno is as dreamy as you might imagine – swimming in Lake Maggiore, sipping local wine at the waterfront restaurants and exploring the 12th-century old town’s Castello Visconteo. Sounds pretty idyllic, doesn't it?    

Sitting moments away from the majestic lake and surrounded by the Swiss Alps, you’ll find this home waiting to showcase the mountainscape vistas from its balcony. Here, you can sip your morning coffee with the warmth of the sun on your face (this is one of Switzerland’s warmest areas), enjoy turning pages of your holiday read accompanied by the light breeze, and savour a glass of locally-produced Merlot as the golden hour approaches.

It’s easy to make the most of the scintillating scenery with expansive glass-fronted walls that invite said golden light to fill the minimalist space. We love the sleek and elegant dining room for intimate dinners of oozy fondue and crusty bread, whilst post-dinner card games are best enjoyed in the cosy living space. 

Pick up your Gruyere and fontina for your fondue dinner from one of the local fromageries in town before stopping off for a bite at one of the charming restaurants on the cobbled Piazza Grande. If you’re coming in August for the Locarno Film Festival, your home is located moments away from the screen, so you’ll be able to catch every scene. If you’re looking to connect with nature, make a visit to The Camellia Park where you’ll find over 900 varieties of the Camellia flower.

Maggiore Minimalism

There's nothing shy or retiring about this Swiss chalet, where bigger is better. Set against a backdrop of towering peaks and dramatic vistas, this home has taken some of that theatre to heart.

The kitchen is well-equipped with traditional goodies, including a fondue set and raclette grill, providing fodder for epic feasts. The slopes are only 100m away – the ski lift is a kilometre away – meaning competent skiers can strap up and just speed off on a day's adventure. Big baths await to soak tired muscles in bedrooms and bathrooms, our favourite being the stretched tub in the master suite – we're pretty sure there's room for two. If you're visiting in summer, a spacious garden and terrace furniture is perfect for catching the sunset, and if you need a break from all that cheese, you can fire up the barbecue.

This mountainside retreat is the perfect spot to experience the Alps in both their summer and winter glory. Whether you want to hike among alpine flowers or charge down the freshly powdered slopes, you'll be more than happy here. It's tucked up on the top floor of a building that couldn't look more quintessentially Swiss if it tried, and blends a slightly retro character with quite a few luxuries. You'll find separate balconies facing north and south, and a modern log burner, along with a private lift to your apartment. The wood-clad interiors will fulfil your log cabin fantasies, and it's just an eight-minute walk to the cable car.

Mint Glacier

While this chalet in Rairettes was built in 2013, its wooden walls, arched ceilings and slate roof make it feel quintessentially old-school Swiss. There's a smart twist, however, with floor-to-ceiling windows at the front of the home that give unparalleled views over the snow-capped mountains. Whether you're cooking in the pine kitchen, cuddled round the feature fireplace or squashed onto the crushed velvet sofa, eyes will invariably gaze out over the magnificent vistas. In the summer, it's out to the home's balcony and grassy garden for barbecues, alfresco feasts, and even a spot of tanning on the loungers if it's warm enough. Mountain trails – both hiking and skiing – can be found not far from the plot for days exploring ridges and new pastures. When you're done, head back to the plush pad for evening soaks in the deep bathtub or a session in the private sauna.

Enjoy your après-ski on the south-facing balcony against a glacial backdrop – there’s nothing like the awe-inspiring sight of a snow-capped mountain.

On days when you want to take it easy, there’s a shared heated pool with incredible mountain views, sauna and wellness centre. In the evenings, we can’t think of anything better than gathering on your private balcony for an indulgent feast of cheese and wine – the home comes with its own raclette grill and fondue set. 

Bon Hiver

Access to the mountain runs is as close as the end of your skis from this recently renovated apartment. In fact, you’ll be centrally placed for everything during your stay, with the resort offering all the everyday things you’ll need, like supermarkets and restaurants as well as an energetic après-ski scene so you can keep riding the slope of adrenaline-filled fun into the evening. But sometimes you just want to cast off your ski goggles and relax, and that’s ok too. What this home provides in spades is comfort, cosiness and a place to chill out. Coming in shivering from a day on the slopes? You’ll warm through by the fire in no time. And when you're hankering for a view, you could take a sumptuous faux fur blanket out onto the balcony  – imagine clutching a steaming hot chocolate while you watch the light play on the Matterhorn Glacier. Splendid.

Goggle Lines

Ideal for solo adventurers and couples alike, this brand-new home is centrally located in the lakeside resort of Locarno. From ancient Roman history to action-packed mountain sports – and an art-filled pilgrimage church – finding sophistication on your doorstep has never been easier.

You will arrive at a bright apartment, kept clean by its white walls and minimalist interior design. Have a lie-in before preparing a traditional breakfast in your spotless kitchen. With a morning coffee in hand, you will enjoy scenic views from this balcony. Later, why not explore a good hiking trail or ascend the slopes by cable car? 

Less than half a mile away from here, you can go water skiing on Lago Maggiore. After that, try cheese fondue in one of the many local restaurants. Then, come back and warm up with underfloor heating – perfect for chilly winter breaks in this city. At the lamp-lit desk, you can even check your work emails before drifting off to sleep in a comfortable bed.

Set You Free

Wheelchair Access

This home in the heart of the charming Swiss town of Meiringen is part of a popular resort complex, with bags of on-site amenities including a children’s playground, bar, bistro, and sauna. A modern, well laid-out space, the apartment has been specially designed to accommodate wheelchair users. Set on the ground floor, there’s a terrace to enjoy the mountain scenery from, and a large living and dining area that’s perfect for socialising after a day of adventure. The town itself is home to the Reichenbach Falls, where a certain fictional detective faked a fatal fall – which explains the Sherlock Holmes Museum nearby. Surrounded by mountains and stunning scenery, it’s not hard to see why Conan Doyle was drawn to write about this region. In the summer, you can hike from right outside your apartment, while in winter, the Meiringen-Hasilberg ski area is just a kilometre away.

Not So Elementary

Ascona’s picturesque lakeside promenade and mountain backdrop make for a blissful resort getaway and this easy apartment lies right in its heart. Minimal and bright, a television, dining table and quaint little balcony to sip your espresso on with views out onto the gardens fulfil the list of essentials. The kitchen is compact, but cute and with strips of charming street cafes and restaurants meters away in the Old Town, there is not much need for any more than that. As for the surroundings, Ascona is Switzerland’s lowest lying town and brings you in touching distance of Lake Maggiore, with boat trips, hiking, and biking opportunities. Its 16th Century charm, from the basilica’s high bell tower, to the pedestrianised cobbled streets, as well as the encapsulating mountain surroundings attracts all number of high-flying visitors. This home’s prime location offers you the perfect base from which to explore all the lakeside wonder of the region. 

A Lake Of Intuition

Surrounded by the beauty of the Swiss Alps, this chic chalet is the perfect place to relax with the family. Start your morning with a coffee on the porch to take in the striking views – snow white or lush green as far as the eye can see depending on the season. Later, head indoors where wood panelled walls, faux furs and large glass windows lend a bright and rustic feel. Spend time in the sleek kitchen where a raclette grill and fondue set makes it easy to whip up a traditional meal. And in the evening, sit at the al fresco dining table to sip some wine under the stars, before heading to the in-house sauna for some zen before bed. If you seek adventure, this home is close to hiking trails and well-known ski resorts like Nendaz.

Check Mate Views

There’s something wildly romantic about this home, a traditional chalet on the Swiss mountainside with modern twists – the slate living room wall is a masterpiece. Honey-toned woods and rich leathers create an atmosphere of warmth and light, no matter how much snow adorns the tops of the nearby Alpes Vaudoises, and with the home set over three storeys there’s plenty of space for all of your party to spread out and relax. We particularly love the bathrooms, that seem to test the limits of how stylish you can be in ski region Switzerland. The ski slopes of Villars-Gryon-Diablerets are a five-minute ride away on the free shuttle bus, but we wouldn’t blame you if you chose to spend the entire day sipping local wine on the balcony, soaking in the garden whirlpool, or just admiring that view over the mountains.
