Perfect location, great accommodations, wonderful owners.
United States of AmericaThis is the second apartment in the walled city of Briancon that I have rented from the owner, Mel Crosby (first one was Pres des Forts, 50 meters away). It has all the same great qualities. This is a modern apartment built into a medieval village, but preserving the original look, such as the curved stone ceilings and the windows. Clearly the person who remodeled and furnished these apartments had artistic skills. The furniture is interesting and in great shape, new paint, modern appliances. Mel is very attentive and fixes anything that is not perfect immediately. Finally, the setting of the apartment, in the center of the walled city, is incomparable.
United States of AmericaEverything was perfect: the apartment was clean, fully-equipped, location was convenient. The host was very responsive and eager to help.
FranceComfortable with well thought through facilities. Great information. Good host contact.
United KingdomWarmth of the apartment, very cosy, separate bedrooms, good shower and bathroom, lovely modern kitchen.
United KingdomEverything: the appartement, the environment, ... It was a unique stay. We like to highly recommend this appartement.
BelgiumFabulous location in the Old City of Briancon... magical. Mel was incredibly helpful with tips and advice. I would stay there again in a heart-beat.
AustraliaAccommodation has bags of character. Is in the old town, with a good terrace. Kitchen well equipped with washing machine & dishwasher.. walking distance to lots of restaurants & shops, though flat/terrace is so nice we ate in most evenings Large entrance lobby where it was safe for bikes.
United KingdomThe apartment was perfect for our family (children in 20’s), it was very clean and cosy with a lovely location in the old town as long as you do not mind a walk up a steep hill....the reward was well worth it! The apartment is on the first floor and has a useful space on the landing outside the apartment to hang coats and ski wear and leaving all our snowy boots, without this space the apartment would have been more difficult to keep clean . This area is well heated to dry all the outdoor wear, which was useful. Mel was exceptionally helpful and responded to questions promptly. Thank you for your hospitality!
United KingdomNice old town location with modern facilities. Great balcony for eating and watching the village life. Wi-Fi worked great. Good location for exploring the southern French Alps. Good restaurants and a small village grocery store are very nearby.

This is our second renovation of an old town house situated in the Cité Vauban, Briançon old town. Just 100 metres from our successful two bedroom property Près des Forts, Maison à Tour offers two self-contained, independent apartments with their own private entrances. Each apartment offers comfort and convenience right in the heart of this historic area. We are uniquely placed within the walls of the old town of Briançon, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Shops, galleries, museums, cafés, restaurants and more are just 100 metres from the apartment. You can enjoy a partial view of the mountains all year round from the balcony or terrace, both providing private outside space for alfreso dining in spring and summer. Come and stay in one of the apartments : you have your own private entrance and everything you need to enjoy a stay whether visiting with family, friends or for work.
We run a ski school and small tour operator business providing accommodation in Serre Chevalier, southern French Alps. We now also own and run self catered apartments in the historic UNESCO world heritage site, Briançon Cité Vauban.
Culture, history, magnificent views of forts and forest, the Cité Vauban is a unique destination to spend time with friends, family or work away from the office. Enjoy the peaceful surroundings throughout the year, or stay in August when the town is usually bustling with activity. See you soon!
