Photos and Description of this Les Houches holiday chalet Chalet - 4 bedrms, 3 bathrms, sleeps upto 10. Apt - 1 bedrm, 1 bathrm sleeps 4

The chalet + separate apartment (on the same property but entirely separate with its own private entrance) are superbly situated in the traditional village of Les Houches just 5km from the Alpine capital of Chamonix (free bus available). Perfect for skiing in winter (next to the pistes and just a 2 minute walk from the 2 cable cars - so close you can ski back for lunch!) and alpine adventures in summer, the Alpine Retreat has a large private garden with unbeatable views over the Mont Blanc mountain range. Just a 2-minute walk from shops, 5 restaurants, a bakery + several bars. The accommodation is very spacious, tastefully refurbished and of a very high standard. Free unlimited wifi internet access and free view satellite TV are available. Please note, you do not have to be a group of 10 to enjoy the spacious farmhouse with its 3 bathrooms and 2 reception rooms; we often have groups of 4 - 6 people relaxing in the comfort of the farmhouse.

Further details for this holiday chalet rental in Les Houches, France

Travel.: Most of our guests either fly to Geneva airport (EasyJet) which is less than an hour's drive/bus journey away, or they drive from the UK (8 hours from the French ferry ports). Other nearby airports include Turin (1 3/4 hrs drive) Lyon (2 hrs) and Milan (3 hrs). Car hire is available at all of these airports. We can arrange transfers from Geneva airport if required.

Ski: Our location is unbeatable; next to the pistes of Les Houches (one of the 5 resorts that make up the Chamonix valley) - a large family resort which has skiing to suite every level. Even the Men's World Cup downhill race is held here each year on the red piste that runs past the end of the garden! There are more than 20 ski runs giving miles of pistes + the tree-lined trails are undoubtedly the best in the valley. The 2 cable cars, (located 2 minutes from the Retreat) + numerous chair lifts give easy access to the extensive skiing area on our doorstep and the huge range of traditional mountain restaurants make the resort one which many visit year after year. Over 100 snow canons make skiing back to the village/chalet a reality throughout the season and local transport is available (nearest bus stop is just 50 meters from the Alpine Retreat) enabling free access to the other resorts in the valley for those without a car.

Other Activities: Skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, hiking, climbing (rock and ice), rafting, canyoning
