Alpine Joy

Alpine Rose Dartford,Kent
Review Submitted: August 19, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The chalet was very easy to find and first impressions on arrival were excellent! The chalet is beautifully situated in a small, charming village,the views on all sides are stunning. Evenings on the balcony were a real treat.The chalet itself is well maintained and equiped, clean and of an overall high standard. Kitchen facilities are high class, providing all mod cons.What a pleasure to stay in such a beautiful place.
Surrounding the chalet there is easy access to excellent walks in the mountains and some shops, including a bakery, are also within walking distance. The neighbours are very friendly and helpful.
The nearby small town of Thones is delightful with a great market, a good Carrefour with petrol facilities and some nice restaurants.
We had a really marvellous week in this lovely chalet that is so well situated that we were able to visit some truly beautiful alpine areas. Make sure you go to La Clusaz and up to Beauregard in the cable car.Spectacular.
Thanks to the owners for a wonderful, restful week.We will certainly be recommending the chalet to others and hoopefully revisiting soon.

Fantastic Chalet rental

N-Rouleur Kent
Review Submitted: July 27, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Just returned from a blissful week in the Alps, staying in this beautiful, extremely well presented and modern chalet. All the space and mod cons one could require from a holiday rental, with amazing views situated in one of the most beautiful areas of France that we have had the pleasure of visiting.
The neighbors and locals were extremely helpful and friendly and this all added up to a lovely holiday.
A highly recommended chalet rental and area to visit, very helpful owners and I can say with certainty that when we return to the area we will be looking to rent this fantastic chalet again without hesitation.
Many thanks to the owners.
