Holiday houses in Benken

What a view! This was such a peaceful home to stay in. It was perfect for our family. We cooked a few dinners at the house and had a few dinners. Our host recommended renting a car as local bus doesn’t always run when you need it. I would recommend renting a car for this location as uber isn’t always available and it’s a hike up the mountain with luggage. We would definitely stay here again.

Compared to most Airbnb experiences, the apartment truly stands out positively. It was very clean, and basic amenities like spices and even toiletries were provided. It is also furnished nicely and feels like a true home. The location is great, nestled between gorgeous mountains. Large supermarkets and some restaurants (as many as Näfels provides) are easily reachable within walking distance. Despite the apartment being directly under the roof, we had no issues while outside temperatures reached ~35 degrees because Rolf proactively closed all shutters, and the apartment is very well isolated and easy to ventilate. Rolf was really friendly and helpful with tips when asked for them, but we also felt like we had privacy during our stay. What we did not know, and really liked, is that you get a ticket for free use of the public transport in the Kanton as a guest.

Nina is a wonderful host. She is proactive, flexible, kind, and responsive. She had everything we needed in the apartment. The apartment is a beautiful large efficiency apartment with a full kitchen in a peaceful neighborhood in a small town that is on a lake. Bed is comfortable and shower is amazing. There is no air conditioner and no washing machine in the unit. There are lots of great hikes for nature lovers and the lovers of peace and tranquility. It would be easier if you had a car to get around but there is ample public transportation; there are buses and boats which will take you to the train station or other nearby towns. We love to walk and you can walk the entire town of Weesen which is about 1.5 or 2 miles. There is only one grocery store in town which is about 20 minutes walk or about 1 mile away. But you can always take the bus. The bus stop is about a block away. Thank you dear Nina for your kind hospitality. We felt at home. We will definitely return.

Dear Martina, The location to the village is fantastic. The tranquility and cleanliness are also noticeable. And with you both, I feel comfortable. Thanks, I'll be back. Sincerely, Kari

Friendly hosts, lovely place, for sure I would come back if staying around Zürich region.

AMAZING stay. Bernhardt was attentive and helpful when needed, and also left us to enjoy the stay. I appreciate his recommendations for a car repair and restaurant to help us after a long drive and getting in late. The deck immediately on the lake is the highlight - heated pool, outdoor dining, outdoor shower, sun loungers and steps directly into the lake. Paddle boards were available. The private driveway cannot be taken for granted, this place gives privacy and a quick drive to town. You can enjoy the amenities and views of the area without leaving home if you like! Or, get out for an amazing adventure. Entertaining bird watching! This place is highly recommended and we look forward to coming back.

The accommodation is much larger and more beautiful than anything the photos can show... When you open the front door, you feel like you're entering a SPA, everything is so beautiful, smells good, is bright and spacious. The apartment is huge, furnished with great taste, the view of the countryside and the lake is breathtaking, the bedding is excellent, the two bathrooms are beautiful, the kitchen is perfectly equipped and what can you say about the private sauna and the heated pool: it's just the dream to be able to benefit from all these amenities in an apartment that is actually like a villa on the top floor of this small 3-level building. In short, a haven of peace where we spent 5 enchanting days: we will return with great joy and warmly thank Manuela for her availability to answer all our questions very quickly by message!

Artur is a very nice host! Very straightforward and friendly. House is within walking distance of the train station. Very idyllic location, yet short distances to nearby restaurants or supermarkets. I'd love to come back the chance! :)
