Visitor Reviews of Le Grand Bornand


Kathy from United Kingdom writes:

We are here again! The most fabulous resort! Kids are now 91/2 and 12 and are leaving me well behind now! They are getting on brilliantly and very independent! Only down side is our favourite restaurant for lunch "La Soleray" is shut so having to visit others! Remember, keep this little gem quiet :)
