The bath towel in the shade of the lime tree, an ice cream in your hand and the view of the vastness of the lake. There are numerous recreational areas in Switzerland with inexpensive accommodation in Lake / river proximity. Ideal for a Short trip on weekends or for relaxing vacations with family or friends. In many places you can Stand Up Paddle and Pedal boats be rented for the special water fun.

Some hosts also offer their guests special Experiences near the water: a Dinner inclusive Sailing trip by moonlight, a hike in combination with Yoga at the lake or a Walk at full moon to the waterfall. These are experiences that remain in the memory and are best as a surprise for an anniversary or as a Gift idea suitable for the dear in-laws.

To the BnB blog 

In mid-August, shooting stars rain down over the Alps.

We reveal Switzerland's darkest stargazing spots and the loveliest B&Bs and mountain huts nearby. We wish you clear skies, plenty of shooting stars, and at least one wish that comes true.
