Soak the day away before bedding down in the Grand Hotel des Bains next door, a four-star hotel with Belle Epoque charm and Wes Anderson-style pops of colour. 

For a holiday high in the alps 

Feel the hills come alive on a holiday high among the Jura mountain range in Les Rasses. A 1 hour 20 minute-drive north of Geneva, this ski resort town takes on a different persona in summer, with lush green expanses and the freshest mountain air. Spend your days rambling and cycling over emerald-green meadows, or shopping for collectible music boxes, which were first invented in Geneva by Swiss watchmaker Antoine Favre in 1796. Boasting panoramic valley views, the Grand Hotel des Rasses is the perfect place to retire after a day spent exploring the great outdoors.  

For hiking and dairy delights 

Fanning out north of Lake Geneva, the Park Jura region is crisscrossed with 523-kilometres of hiking trails, weaving their way through postcard-perfect forests and meadows. Take in captivating views of Lake Geneva, the Alps and storybook-style chalets as you traverse the mountain trails. When it comes time to refuel, stop in at one of the stone-walled alpine chalets serving Swiss delicacies, including Gruyère AOP, the nutty cow’s milk cheese the region is famed for.

Channel your inner royal with a visit to Castle of Grandson, overlooking picturesque Lake Neuchâtel. Dating back thousands of years, this medieval fortress offers a fascinating snapshot into European history, having played a pivotal role in the Burgundy Wars and the Battle of Grandson (1476).
