Built in the early 1800s by Richard Butler, 1st Earl of Glengall, who, we believe, managed to persuade world-famous Regency architect John Nash to design it. Originally, simply known as “The Cottage” it appears to have acquired its present name because it was thought to resemble an Alpine cottage.

But I thought the small fee was worth it; it's charming and quite unusual. To me, it looked much more English than Swiss 😂
Tour buses pass by occasionally, but otherwise it's a very peaceful, quiet place.
