Four minutes from the Petit-Châtel chairlift and the vast Portes du Soleil ski area, this villa in Châtel puts the slopes within easy reach without sacrificing peace or elevation. Inside, vaulted timber ceilings and a central wood-burning fireplace anchor a living space where snow-dusted peaks fill almost every window – the views are hard to leave behind. A cedar sauna and outdoor hot tub take care of tired legs after a long day on the pistes, and when the slopes close, the wine cellar and Châtel's village centre – a ten-minute walk away – keep the evening moving.

Home truths
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot on request.
The chalet is set across multiple floors without a lit – it may not suit guests with reduced mobility.
You'll need to contact your host at least seven days before arrival to arrange check-in and share your flight details.
Lac de Vonnes is a five-minute drive away if you're planning summer water activities, so a car is useful outside ski season.
A complimentary mid-stay cleaning service is included for stays of 14 nights or more.
Your host is happy to book taxis and make restaurant reservations for you during your stay, as part of the service.

About France
You could easily take a lifetime’s worth of French holidays and still feel like you haven’t scratched the nation’s surface. The most visited country in the world, France has long inspired artists, revolutionaries, dreamers, and bons vivants with its storybook landscapes, artistic treasures, and cultural idiosyncrasies. Paris is, of course, the country’s glittering centrepiece but there are countless beauty spots worth discovering outside of the City of Light. Sun yourself...
