"I thought I would write and say what a wonderful holiday we had over Christmas. The chalet was absolutely beautiful, the owners were very friendly and helpful and with Etienne's help the children became proficient skiers within days. We have all come back very relaxed and planning to definitely be away next Christmas too!"
Mrs M M - January 2006

This property is a totally renovated 170 year old country farmhouse constructed from valley stone and ancient timbers. It has been lovingly converted by the owner into a charming, traditionally decorated ski lodge. The unique character of the building has been preserved and the use of natural materials and country decor reflects the spirit of a bygone age. The property enjoys 6 comfortable bedrooms, 2 have their own facilities (one with a fabulous C18th roll-top bath!) and there are 2 further bathrooms and 6 wc.  A gorgeous setting for a ski holiday!

We have recently enhanced this property with a Hot Tub!

More Information

The chalet is decorated in the traditional French style so lots of pretty gingham fabrics and decoration create a wonderful ski chalet ambience! Most bedrooms have ample cupboard space. Duvets, soft pillows and crisp bed linen included.

The heart of the house is an enormous and well equipped farmhouse kitchen with hand-built cupboards and a traditional terracotta stone floor. The old pine dressers, blue crockery and dried flowers draw inspiration from Country Living and it is the ideal place for cosy aprés ski hot chocolate (with or without brandy!) There is a large 'Aga' style range cooker (that can also be wood fired!) 5 gas burners, microwave, 2 fridges and electric oven offer aspiring chefs the best facilities in which to create delicious meals.

The chalet can sleep 14 as bedroom 2 has 3 single beds and bedroom 6 can take an extra folding bed (best for kids) or there is a sofa bed in the lounge.

Private parking in-front of the chalet for 2 cars. Ski storage shed with freezer and coded door lock.

It's an 8 min drive by car to Chamonix town.
