Diana Footit, owner of Tiger’s Nest, said "We are thrilled to open our lodge as a home from home in the Swiss Alps. The design of the lodge reflects our family’s time spent in Asia, our love of architecture and of Asian and European food and art. The house was born out of a desire to find somewhere to stay in the mountains as luxurious as the very best hotels in Asia, with the levels of service renowned in the Far East combined with the comforts of our own home."
 The area offers superb and reliable snow conditions with six ski lifts within a 12 minute drive of the house.
