Le Chatelard is easily accessible but still remains unspoilt and retains a certain charm with its old store fronts and little alleys leading up towards the church. It is a quiet, friendly village with a supermarket, bakery, bar and hotel/restaurant, tourist information, bank and post office and a local food market every Friday morning. Les Bauges is an area of outstanding natural beauty, heritage and tradition makes a great base to explore a wide range of outdoor activities or to simply relax. The French will wonder how you discovered their secret resort! Walking is amazing here. Summer cycling is amazing with awesome routes for mountain bikes and local routes are used by pro's for the Tour de France. Photographers and ramblers will love the amazing light offered in Les Bauge for spectacular pictures of the local wildlife, butterflies fauna and flora.
Winter skiing is superb and the best value in the Alps at www.lesaillons.com Lift passes are half the bifg resort prices and kids rates count up to 18 years! We can get you a full ski pack with boots for £60 for 6 days. We love it and there's always Val Thorens just 1hr away if you want to pay more for massive terrain and a serious day out but for intermediates and beginners - we love Les Aillons and Margeriaz as its on our doorstep and has no lift queues!
Notes on accommodation:
Heating in Le Chatox is under-floor on the first floor diner, lounge and there are radiators in all bedrooms and bathrooms. The lounge has board games, chess and card games for children as well as the TV/DVD player, ipod docking. There is a collection of books which we plan to add to and local maps and info on what’s on in the area to plan your itinerary. We have a guest book on things to see and do and encourage you to add to this for future guests. The open plan living area is large and with 8 of us there last summer we never felt overcrowded or on top of each other. The L sofa and double sofa seat 8 comfortably and there's also the rocking chair and guitar with some easy cord music from our collection if you fancy a strum and sing along after dinner and wine! There is full wi-fi but try passing time soaking in the amazing view with some melancholy music and a glass or two as the fire crackles which is surely more preferable ! Abientot!
