Make a holiday rental cabin or ski chalet in Sevrier, France your home away from home

Sevrier is a wonderfully relaxed port town on the shores of Lake Annecy, France. Each season brings a new look to the lake, making it an artists favourite, but it is the changing calendar of outdoor activities, from skiing in the winter to walking, mountain biking and white water rafting in the summer that really keeps Sevrier villas busy.

Things to do in Sevrier, France

Golf is hugely popular around Lake Annecy, and a Sevrier villa makes an excellent golfing base. There are three golf courses within a short drive of Sevrier, both and full 18 holes. You do not need to bring your clubs, as hire is available, and if you are looking for an evening round, reduced green fees are a regular offer.

As well as the cultural attractions of Annecy, during the winter months, a day skiing makes a great day out from a Sevrier villa. There is skiing locally to suit all abilities, from the total beginner to the weather beaten expert. Les Gets has a particularly good range of skiing, making perfect for families, and for snowboarders, the snow park at Courcheval is a must.

Lake Annecy is also a great asset for those staying in a Sevrier villa. The lake not only provides stunning scenery, but is also an activity hotbed in its own right. Sitting on the shore watching the world drifting by is one of the most popular, but for those that prefer a little more action, sailing and swimming are also a fantastic option.
