Skiing, cycling and hiking are possible within the area, and the country house offers ski storage space. My stay at Haven on Tau couldn't have been better. Christine met me when I arrived and explained everything I needed to know. I have ever possible amenity I could have needed and more. The indoor space was beautiful. I especially enjoyed the touches of art throughout. The outside space was great but because I arrived when the sun was getting lower, it was too hot for me to sit out there very long. I also wish I had brought something to grill for dinner! It's always helpful when a host provides a book with instructions and suggestions. Haven on Tau's book was fabulous. The bed was comfortable as was the couch I sat on while planning my next day. It was a great stay overall!
