Location & Accommodation
The cosy little town of St. Cergue is located in the Jura Vaudois Nature Park, nestled between Lausanne and Geneva, and about 10 km northwest of Nyon. From almost anywhere in the property, you can enjoy a spectacular view of Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc. The house itself is a two-story building containing several spacious bedrooms, multiple classrooms, toilets and showers and a professionally equipped kitchen - as well as a massive terrace. Overall, there’s enough space inside and outside for our workshops, evening programmes and the much needed chill time at the end of the day.
