Photos and Description of this Le Grand Bornand holiday chalet 4 Bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, sleeps 8

Located in an unspoilt corner of the French Alps, Chalet Vif is a perfect location for a winter or summer vacation, with breathtaking views over the Aravis mountain range. The Chalet is built in traditional Alpine style on 3 floors with 4 bedrooms. There are 2 balconies, one off the main bedroom and one off the large lounge. The south facing aspect ensures plenty of sun and gives stunning views of the Aravis mountain range and the surrounding countryside. The town is still very much considered a hidden secret within the French Alps with its lovely village shops, church, tree lined square and regular market. There is a thriving community throughout the year and the summers as much as the winters have become popular for both outdoor sports and relaxing in the sunshine. The chalet has easy access to the ski lift network of Le Grand Bornand, and La Clusaz is just a 10-minute drive away. Nordic skiing opportunities also are excellent.

The Chalet is located at approximately 1100 meters high in the Aravis mountain range of the French Alps overlooking the picturesque town of Le Grand Bornand. A conscious decision to develop only traditional style chalet has preserved the look of the area. You can walk into the town in about 15 minutes down a quiet lane or catch the free ski bus just a few yards from the Chalet which will take you down to Le Grand Bornand, or up to Le Chinaillon

Chalet Vif - Perfection

Review Submitted: February 6, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2008
Chalet Vif was the perfect property for our long weekend boarding in Le Grand Bornand.

The chalet had everything we could have asked for, beautiful views over the valley and cable car, large spacious rooms, constant hot water to ease our aching bones and easy access to the centre of the village and the gorgeous patisseries.

We hated having to leave and would return in an instant. We would definitely book the chalet again.

It has now been our 3rd time to the Grand Bornand and to stay at the Chalet Vif and will not be our last.... The chalet is like home from home with all your comfort and needs. We are a family of four and love our skiing and when returning back to the warm chalet and chilling out on the sofa it was so relaxing. The snow was fantastic this year again and we took advantage of going to La Cluses whilst we had the 2 weeks there and what an amazing place. This took only about a 10 - 15 minute drive or in the town there are buses that can take you, well worth going. On the Whole it was yet again a great family holiday
..........Thank You..........

Chalef Vif, Grand Bornand

Review Submitted: January 13, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2007
A real home from home experience. Very comfortable and a good location for a ski holiday with the convenience of a Ski bus 3 mins walk away or altneratively using your car a good location to other piste resorts.

The accomodation met our needs with a clean comfortable apartment complimented with generous amount of equipment for self catering. I would certainly recommend this to all. We ate out at La Boheme in the town of Grand Bornand which was good food and no smoking. Ideally you need to drive to town but it is only 5 minutes away so you could walk if you have the energy after a full day of skiing.
