I recommend a very nice meadow walk between Frience and Solalex. There
is a detailed walking map in the apartment.
The Refuge de Frience is a great restaurant to start / end the
walk.
There are also nice walks direct from the apartment. A walk to
Huomoz (below Chesieres) is very pleasant.
For a special evening meal out, the restaurant at
Solalex Le Miroir d'Argentine is very
good. The waiter gives a bit of a show. He draws the menu in front
of you. Nice for the kids as well. The food is very good but it is
expensive. Need to book. (Tel: 024 498 14 46)
(For an ordinary meal out there is a pasta place (Pasta Basta) 400
m down the road from the apartment.)
Olympic museum Lausanne is well done if you have interest.
There is a tree adventure place at Aigle (Arbre Adventure). Adults
to if you like.
The spa at Lavez Les Bains is a must do for me every year. Works
well for kids and adults. Indoor & outdoor pools (with amazing
mountain views). There are lots of different rooms, steam rooms,
relaxation rooms, as well as an ice room you can sit in !

If you fancy a boat trip a round trip on a the ferry on lake
Geneva is a nice way to spend a few hours. You can get the ferry at
Villeneuve.
At Le Bouveret there is a water park (flumes etc). Next door is a
more sedate outdoor pool in a park which goes right up to the
lake. So you can sunbath on the grass and bathe in lake Geneva.
Pictures on the website:
There is a labyrinthe (near to Lavez le Bains) which claims to be
the largest in the world. Also has lots of games activities good for
all kids.

track at Fun Planet near Villeneuve.
