The house is situated in a very calm neighbourhood with hardly any traffic. Our neighbours are very helpful and friendly if needed but you'll have your peace if you want to. A local bakery, a restaurant as well as the local forest is within 5 minutes walk. Going west, you'll be in the French speaking part of Switzerland. Going east, it's the German speaking part. The historical towns of Murten (10 minutes drive by car or bus), Fribourg (20 minutes drive by car or bus) and Bern (25 minutes drive) are within easy reach. As well as the lakes of Schiffenen (5 minutes drive or 15 minutes walk) and Murten (10 minutes drive or nice 60 minutes walk over hills and through forests). From our small town you can see the snowy alps and reach them within 1 hour's drive - by car or public transport. In short, you'll have the calm of the rural area, but you're in reach of many sightseeing or natural activities.
