If you’re looking for the quintessential Swiss Alps ski experience, then look no further. In the centre of Vercorin, an idyllic resort at the foot of a mountain, this petite apartment is less than 100 metres from the slopes. In fact, it’s so close, that in the winter you can often ski right up to the building. With a compact but cosy living area and timber bunks for the kids, it’s ideal for a small family. You’ll have use of the resort’s impressive facilities, including the bistro, sauna, steam room, playroom, gaming room and spa. Carve up the slopes by day, with the most incredible views as your backdrop, and come back for a soak in the hot tub before that all important après-ski activity in the bar. Then gather your group in your snug apartment and get the fondue set – borrowed from the resort reception – bubbling. Or if all that hard work on the slopes means you’re not in the mood to cook, just wander down to the bistro and let the chefs look after you.
