Swiss Home is a term used to describe a type of traditional wooden house found in the Swiss Alps. It is also known as a CHALET, which is a French word meaning 'small cottage'. The CHALET is typically built with a steeply pitched roof and wide eaves, and is often decorated with carved wood and painted shutters. The interior of the CHALET is usually quite cozy, with a large fireplace and comfortable furniture. Swiss Homes are popular vacation destinations for those looking to experience the beauty of the Swiss Alps.
