​chalet fleur de neige
rooms and facilities.
rooms
on the top floor are 4 bedrooms and a bathroom with full size bath and powerful shower.
bed 1: large double with door onto balcony and views over valley.
bed 2: double with door onto balcony and views over valley.
bed 3: large twin with lots of floor space for travel cot or extra mattress (both beds have 2 mattresses on them).
bed 4: small twin in the eaves (also a full size cot in this room)
bed 5: on the ground/garage floor there's a double bedroom plus bathroom with shower and toilet. the ground floor is separated with doors on the interior staircase so it does feel like quite a private/separate mini-flat.
on the living level there is a huge open plan living room/dining room/kitchen with several doors out onto the terrace and incredible views. there's a wood burning stove and 3 sofas, plus tv etc. next to the main room there's a toilet and a separate 'playroom' with DVD player, dozens of DVDs and plenty of toys, books etc. (this room also contains a double sofa bed if you need to squeeze extra people in.)
on the basement level is the boot room for outdoor gear and the garage as well as bed 5.
facilities
the chalet is our home and equipped with everything we have found we need! in the kitchen there's a kettle, microwave, coffee machine, cafetiere, blender, slow cooker, fridge freezer, plenty of pans and obviously a cupboard full of wine and champagne glasses!
in the living room there is a big tv with sky (5 standard UK channels only), plus dvd player and audio system with ipod/ipad attachments. downstairs there's a washing machine, tumble drier and iron. you'll also find a hairdryer in the main bedroom. there are several uk multi-plugs fitted around the house for your own appliances. the living room also contains a big wood burning stove boxed in with a child proof gate.
there's an old x-box, tv and dvd player plus several board and card games along with books in the playroom. the chalet also has wifi.
for babies: a full size cot, a carrycot, changing mat, baby bath, avent microwave bottle steriliser, bouncy chair, high chair, booster seat, toddler cutlery and plastic plates/cups and loads of toys and books inside the living room coffee table/chest. stair gates are fitted (but easily pushed out of the way for baby-free visitors).
towels and bed linen are provided and you'll find basics like soap, washing up liquid, kitchen cupboard stuff and loo roll when you arrive - we just ask that you replace roughly what you use for the next guests.
outdoors
the chalet has a wrap around sunny terrace with incredible views across the valley. there is also a large shady area with a table and lots of chairs, plus barbecue. there are some reclining lounger chairs and a couple of old school fabric sun beds...!
at the back of the chalet is a large fully enclosed garden where kids or dogs can run riot without being able to escape.
there's a garage plus on-drive parking for several cars. on rare occasions in the winter you may have to dig yourselves out... there are snow shovels in the garage!
