This cosy chalet, with its own private garden and dining area, is the perfect getaway for both summer and winter holidays in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc. Start each morning with a cup of coffee alfresco as the crisp, fresh air wakes you up and gets you ready for a day full of adventures. Located just nine minutes away from the nearest ski resort, you can grab your equipment from the home’s dedicated ski storage room and be hitting the slopes in no time.

Why not explore the beautiful central Chamonix – a short ten-minute drive away or head to Le Bossons Glacier, reachable by car within thirteen minutes, and enjoy the breath-taking beauty of the views on offer? For more adventurous activities, tree-top climbing and a rock climbing crag in Lac des Gaillards are both only five minutes away by car, while horse riding is also on offer and can be reached in eleven minutes from this home. 

In the evening, we would love nothing more than to snuggle up in the warmth of this cabin and admire the snowy mountain views outside. Or, curl up on the sofa with a good book from the bookcase.

With ski lifts just a short two-minute walk away, you can be hitting the slopes of Le Tour in no time. The area also offers the popular Panda Club for younger children, while more advanced skiers can head for Les Grands Montets, above Argentière, for some of the best skiing and snowboarding in the Alps.

In the summer, there is still plenty on offer with all the facilities of the Chamonix region on your doorstep. There are stunning mountain trailing for hiking or mountain biking, horse riding, and even activities such as white water rafting, rock climbing and paragliding. Or, if you’d rather take some time to unwind, why not drive ten minutes to the spa and indulge in some relaxation. 

After a long day of adventures and snow, head back to the home and warm your feet on the underfloor heating as you get comfy on the sofa. Then, why not refuel with some delicious fondue cheese using the raclette? Don’t forget to enjoy one last glimpse of the amazing vista outside from your private balcony before you retire to bed for the night.

We love the views over to Mont-Blanc from the terrace of this home. Inside, the living space has the wow factor and the owners’ love of art, design, and architecture shows in the decoration and furnishings. This place is perfect for family or friends with its cosy fireplace, sauna, TV and games area, and dormitory room that the children will love. There’s also a reading corner and an office space for when you need to catch up on work. Set at the end of a private road on the edge of the forest, this home has a wonderful location. It’s 500 metres from the ski lifts and offers easy access to hiking and bike trails.
