Savoy is in the south-eastern corner of France, not far from Italy and Switzerland. It is unquestionably spectacularly beautiful with big mountain ranges. A very special combination of history, culture, scenery, food and wine makes it one of the most delightful places to visit in all of Europe.
Cruet is still a very quiet village, with lots of historical places to see around. This is also a perfect base camp for exploring the ski resorts in winter and hiking or mountain biking from spring till late autumn.
