Further details for this holiday apartment rental in Tignes, France

The Skiing: The apartment is situated in Tignes in the best ski area in France, the Espace Killy, which links Val d'Isere and Tignes. The village of Le Lavachet offers a supermarket several bars and restaurants 2 lifts to whisk you up to the slopes and a regular bus service to link you with the other areas of Tignes.It is ideal for intermediates and advanced skiers, although beginners are well catered for, offering a learning area where they can be a part of the scene right in the centre of the village.The Grande Motte glacier offers skiing right through into early May. Take the opportunity to take a second ski trip late season when there is fantastic snow and the slopes are virtually empty.

The Golf: The golf in summer is on the Par 68 5000 yard course situated on the meadowed slopes of Tignes. Situated at 2100 metres it is the highest golf course in Europe. The experience of playing golf at this height is amazing as the balls fly for forever due to the thinner air. The wildlife of wild goats and marmots also provide a difference from the local golf course, but best of all are the natural hazards.

Ski: * Tignes ( 2100 metres) is situated close to Val d'Isere and has a glacier which offers excellent snow conditions all through the long season from early December right through to mid May. * There are many red and blue runs ideal for intermediate skiers whilst some of the best off-piste and black runs can be found here in Tignes.

Golf: The golf in summer is on the Par 68 5000 yard course situated on the meadowed slopes of Tignes. Situated at 2100 metres it is the highest golf course in Europe.

Excellent apartment

janeaw woking
Review Submitted: January 14, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
This apartment is great - compact (ish) but perfectly designed. We were 2 adults and 2 children (8 and 11). Kids slept in bunks in hall which we could close off from lounge. Fantastic location - 50 yd walk to put your skis on and ski to the nearest lifts. Coming home you could ski right back to the apt door. Also very close to supermarket, bars, ski rental etc - on the doorstep. Had a lovely meal in Le Brassero (just ask for kids portions). Back to apartment - oven is small but very efficient and managed a roast chicken, baked potatoes and garlic bread for 4!! All utensils you need provided. No coffee machine but a cafetiere. Great TV and DVD player. Lots of clothes/bag storage. Glorious view from balcony. Would definitely recommend and would return to this apartment. Tignes is a great ski. NB. Park in public Lavachet car park if you have a 4 by 4, MPV or roof box (or both like us!!) - the entrance to the apartment parking garage seemed a bit low. Public car park is 50yds - opposite where you can put your skis on in the morning. We loved this place. Clem is very helpful. Only negative point (not about apartment) is that with the exchange rate as it is everything is ridiculously expensive e.g. can of drink 5 euros, pizza 16 euros, pint of lager 7 euros, ski passes.... etc etc. Some mountain places cheaper than others so check them out. Hope this helps anyone!
Owner's Response: Itrs great to read about a client's experience in one's own apartments - basically agreeing with all that we feel is good about our location in Tignes. A note on the exchange rate is that you can reduce the impact - buy your food in Bourg St Maurice its much cheaper than in resort - eat in selected restaurants with good value for money (lists in the apartments) - avoid on mountain drinks - they have always been expensive! Bring your euros with you - exchange rate through cash machines is very poor. Clem

A comfortable home-from-home - as usual!

Review Submitted: April 4, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
This is our 4th (or is it 5th?!) time staying in these flats. We keep coming back because they are so well-appointed, clean, comfortable, relatively spacious, and good value for money. Unlike most flats owned or operated by big agencies, these flats have comfortable furniture and are in a good decorative state. We've stayed in flats with useless oddments of crockery and the absolute minimum of utensils - not here. It feels like home-from-home. We'll definitely be back.

Great location!

Review Submitted: January 6, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
We were a group of 6 Australians who stayed here for 10 nights from Xmas Eve 2008. The apartment is a little small for 6 adults, but we made do and had a fantastic time. Its a shame there is a huge dishwasher and a tiny oven for cooking, as the space would be much better reversed, especially if you are after self catering. The location is perfect - we had lots of snow so skiing to the carpark was a breeze, there is a supermarket within metres of the front door, along with lots of great bars with happy hours from 4-6pm (Scottys was our favourite). The bus runs regularly from outside the supermarket to all other areas of Tignes, so eating out is made easy.

Overall, this is a great apartment with a fantastic view of the resort. We couldnt have asked for better accommodation for the price we paid. Thanks Clem!
