Spacious hallway with discrete storage areas under the stairs leading to:

Bathroom 2 (opposite bedroom 2)

Fully tiled bathroom with free-standing shower unit with power shower, toilet and sink and lit mirrored cabinet.

Sauna

Traditional indoor Swiss wooden sauna, large enough to accommodate a group after a hard day's skiing.

Stairs leading to the ground floor open plan main living area.

Ground floor - open plan sitting, dining and kitchen area

Large sitting room with 2 sets of French windows taking in fully the views over the valley and two mountain areas. Windows are also set to the sides of the sitting and dining area to take further advantage of the views wrapping around the chalet.

There are two large sofas (including a 5 seater and a comfortable large sofa bed), an arm chair, wicker chair, large coffee/tv dinner table, entertainment cabinet with Samsung flat screen tv and a satellite tv for when you want to relax or catch up on your favourite programmes. There is also a JVC speaker system and chromecast. There is a wide selection of books (including some childrens' books).

We have a traditional wood burning real fire adding further to the comforts of this already delightfully warm and cozy chalet. Logs are available to buy locally.

Dining

The adjoining dining area enjoys views through a set of French doors and large side window. There is a traditional wooden round dining table with seating for up to 10 people, although we prefer more elbow room and usually aim for no more than 8 adult diners.

Kitchen

The open plan living and dining area opens to a fully equipped kitchen with ample storage cupboards, large fridge with integral freezer, dishwasher, microwave, electric oven and a flat glass hob.

The side exit door leads to the wrap around balcony and garden area.

At the heart of the house is a wooden staircase which leads to the upper and lower bedroom floors. For those bringing toddlers we recommend the use of a child safety gate. We have one available for you to use in the chalet - which separates the main living area from the rest of the house.

Hallway

The main hallway leads to the front door and comprises a cloak cabinet with ample room for coats and shoes and a mirror to check your gear before heading onto the slopes. It's here where many of the board games and there like are kept.

Bathroom 3/utility

The hallway leads to the third bathroom which comprises a toilet, sink and, as it is near to the front door, we have incorporated a utility area here with a washer/dryer and hanging space/airer to dry ski gear and keep shoes and snow shoes out of the way and cozy on the tiled under floor heating.

The chalet is also fully equipped with the usual cleaning and laundry equipment.

Upper floor

Set in the eaves with ample head room for adults, and a quaint hide away for the children, are two further adjoining bedrooms. Both are carpeted.

Bedroom 3 (large double sofa bed)

At the top of the open stairs is a well sized room which houses a double sofa bed and storage shelves. A bedroom/game room, it has a flat screen TV to use with X Box (DVD player) and a selection of games. The perfect hide away for children.

Bedroom 4 (twin)

Leading from/through bedroom 3 is a fourth bedroom which enjoys a picture window which bathes the room in light. Slightly smaller than bedroom 3, this is a well sized with 3 single beds. with bed side table and under bed pull out storage.

Babies and toddlers

We have 2 travel cots available (please bring your own bedding), 2 high chairs, changing mat, potty that you can borrow too - but, as with all baby items, we simply ask that you make sure they are properly cleaned before you leave as these items are not part of the usual housekeeping arrangements.

Linen

Winter

Linen for the bedrooms and a bath towel each (except separate baby towel/linens) are included in the price of your winter stay. Beds are made for your arrival.

Other

Additional linen and towel bails can be provided at cost price.

During 2022 the cost is: £50 double bed £25 each single. Kitchen towels are not provided.

Outside

Garage and heated boot cupboard. Situated next to the front door and is the perfect place to store your skis, snowboards, mountain bikes and any other outdoor equipment you may have. There is a heated boot cupboard. Bring as much or as little as you like - there is plenty of room to store everything!

You are welcome to use our garden furniture either on the balconies or the garden areas to help you take full advantage of the wonderful and varied views which open to the different mountain ranges and valley beneath. We would simply ask that you pop them back into the garage at the end of your stay.

Parking area

We have a driveway to fit one car. However, we own 2 parking spaces immediately alongside the chalet beside the road. This is where we usually park our cars, particularly in winter.

Access

Access is via a gently sloping driveway - unlike many chalets in the village. So, no clambering up and down steps with your skis or board and/or children! We find this invaluable! The chalet is also situated immediately alongside a blue slope (100m from a red slope) and is genuinely accessible for all.

Internet

We have complimentary wifi.
