Studio apartment with fantastic views in Les Coches

Set at 1450m altitude, Les Coches is a small mountain village with traditional stone and wood architecture, surrounded by pine forests. It is conveniently situated at the centre of Paradiski, the world's 2nd largest ski area, allowing skiers to quickly and easily access all 425km of runs. The apartment is on the ground floor and has unobstructed views of the alpine peaks, the valley below and Mt Blanc. It is possible to ski to within 30 metres of the apartment. Apres ski includes kids clubs, a winter / summer ice rink, cinema, bars and restaurants. In the summer it offers fantastic scenery and endless activities in a relaxed and beautiful environment. There is a pretty and atmospheric village square in the centre of the village, only 5 minutes walk from the apartment. The new 'Chalets De Wengen' are just 80 metres further down the hill, again 5 minutes walk away. 3km away is Montchavin, a traditional alpine village, linked to Les Coches by a ski run, gondola and bus.

Location
Nearest ferry port: Calais at 930 kilometres
Nearest railway station: Landry at 10 kilometres

Les Coches lies on the border between the two fantastic ski areas of Les Arc and La Plagne. By car, it is 930km from Calais, taking 9 hours. The following airports are within easy reach: Chambery (1hr), Grenoble (2hr), Lyon (2hr), Geneva (2.5hr). The nearest railway station is at Landry, only 10 km away, where both the Eurostar and the Snowtrain stop. It is very easy from there to get a taxi or a bus into the resort, and can be arranged by my agent in Les Coches. The Eurostar goes direct to Landry from Waterloo. The Snowtrain: Blue Snow train, departs from Folkstone on a Friday evening on a coach which takes you through the Channel Tunnel. On the other side you join the overnight train that takes you all the way to Landry. Or there’s the White Snow Train which is the Eurostar from Waterloo to Paris, where you pick up the Snow Train. The return is late Saturday evening.

A 25% deposit is required to secure your booking, paid via the agent in France. In addition there is a damage deposit of £100, payable on arrival in the resort, which will be returned to you after your stay, provided the apartment is left undamaged for the next occupants.

Summer

Les Coches is perfectly placed for summer holidays, when the weather is warm and the flowers burst into bloom. It is located on the edge of the Vanoise National Park and provides access to numerous activities, including hiking, mountain-biking, horse riding, swimming, fishing, canoeing and white-water rafting. The options for hiking within 30 mins of Les Coches are endless, with possibilities in every direction. There is an outdoor swimming pool 3km away in the pretty traditional village of Montchavin and an 18-hole golf course in Arc 1800. Further afield, over the Petit St Bernard pass, lies Italy and the Italian Alps.

Winter Activities for Non-skiers

There is plenty for non-skiers to enjoy in the winter. There are restaurants, bars and a creperie in the village, as well as a cinema (in Montchavin), an ice-rink and games room. For the more energetic there is snow-shoeing, ski-mountaineering, ice-climbing, an Olympic bobsleigh (at La Plagne) and winter hiking.

Local Area

Just 3km down the road lies Montchavin, a traditional alpine village, offering a mixture of restaurants and apartments, set amidst local houses and hay barns. It is easy to reach Montchavin, either on skis, in the telecabine (summer and winter) or via the ski bus. Montchavin makes a lovely stop for lunch in the middle of a day's skiing. Down in the valley, the nearest town is Bourg St Maurice, 17km away, offering a greater selection of shops and supermarkets.

Skiing Information:

Les Coches is right at the centre of the huge Paradiski area (Les Arcs and La Plagne) with 425 km of alpine slopes, 175 ski lifts and skiing up to 3250m on the glacier. The ski area is open from early December to the end of April. In 2004, the major ski areas of Les Arcs and La Plagne were linked by the Vanoise Express, a modern cable car on 2 floors carrying 400 people, creating a new combined area called 'Paradiski', linking the whole network in just 4 minutes. Ski school operates within the village and there is a children's club which caters for babies up to teenagers. Apres ski activities include restaurants, cinema, ice rink and games room, all in the village. Snowboarders will enjoy the snow-park at Arc 1800, the floodlit half-pipe at Arc 2000, as well as the snow-park at La Plagne. In addition, Val d'Isere/Tignes is 50 min away, the 3 Valleys are 45 min and St Foy (more off piste) is within 30 mins.
