Near by:
There are restaurants and plenty of shops very near by, for example there are 2 restaurants within 100 meters, as well as 3 super markets, so you won’t get tired arms carrying back all your shopping or have to go far if you run out of milk! You can even hop in the car and drive straight into the commercial centre car park, opposite. But you don’t really need a car here at all. The Place Central is a gentle 6/7 minute walk, so it’s very easy to get home after your après ski and save your tired legs for the slopes in the morning! If you fancy a nice swim the sports centre is close enough to walk across in your swimming costume 50 meters and includes a heated Indoor pool (12 x 25 m), play area for children, sauna, Turkish bath, solarium, tennis, squash, indoor ice rink (30 x 60 m), & climbing wall
Apartment:
The kitchen has the very best and new cook ware, crockery, glasses and utensils along with new appliances which include; electric kettle, food processor, electric juicer, microwave oven, induction hob and state of the art cooker, George Forman grill, cafeteria, toaster and a water purifier. The kitchen units are solid wood with Granite splash backs and work tops.
The apartment is our second home and therefore very well equipped and furnished to a very high standard. We have created a relaxing, warm environment with soft lighting; the lounge has comfortable leather sofas, and traditional Swiss open fire place, oak floors and ceiling beams.
A large private terrace all around the apartment if you need to absorb the view or fancy some mountain air or a glance up at the stars. All the mattresses are all of a high quality and sprung, and there are two hair dryers in the bedrooms also the double bedroom is a flat screen wall mounted TV. There is a wall mounted flat screen TV with an integrated DVD player in the lounge, with over 50 Satellite TV channels which include all the main English channels + local channels. Wi-Fi Internet access.
The Lounge & kitchen has a total 5 French doors to allow panoramic views of the Grand and Petit Combine mountain range and access to the terrace. The bedroom furniture is rustic hand made Swiss style solid wood.
There is a private ski room downstairs (1 flight) or take the lift, a travel cot is kept in our ski room, however you will need to bring your own bedding for the Travel cot. Floor area includes 1/3 of outside terrace.
Ski:
The apartment position is excellent as is the skiing, just come out the apartment door and turn right up a small slope and you are on the ski bus stop where the service is frequent! The Medran lift is just four stops away or you can go on up to Savoleyres or the beginners slope of Les Esserts. We quite often use a ski locker at Medran (heated) and hop on the bus without our boots and skis. Lockers are only 5 CHF per day and can accommodate 3 to 4 peoples ski’s & boots, and we have always managed to acquire one. This means once we have finished a days skiing we can have a gentle stroll down Rue du Medran and enjoy the plentiful après ski bars and delightful restaurants and then collect our skis & boots from the locker in the morning and ski off for another perfect day of skiing! Also a 3 to 4 minute walk from the apartment if you have very young ones; is the Les Schtroumpfs day nursery (next to the Moulin lift) open daily from 8.30am to 5.30pm, they take children from 3 months.
