Die Lage ist super, ruhig und nah an der Busstation. Das Haus ist sehr schön, wenn auch etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Für 8 Leute eher klein. Dafür ist der Blick auf die Gletscherausläufe grandios!
This is the second time we've stayed in Colette's chalet, and we had a lovely time again. It's well equipped, and a good size for our party of 4 adults and 4 kids. Views of the mountains are spectacular. We were very sad to leave.
Fijn huis, goed uitgeruste keuken, badkamer en ook vooral het skihok beneden!
Ideale locatie, prettige sfeer, openhaard is top en zo aan de voet van de Mont Blanc!

Lovely chalet for ski holiday
We had a lovely week in Colette's chalet. It was just the right size for our group of 4 adults and 5 kids. It had everything we needed for the week, including washing machine, DVD player and raclette machine. The large open fire was a highlight, as was the large garden which the kids loved sledging and building snowmen in. It's a 15 minute drive to the Prarion lift, and definitely better to use the car rather than bus, but you'll need snow chains to get up the hill out of the cul-de-sac if it snows overnight.
All in all, a very pleasant week, much enjoyed by all.

Quiet and peaceful
We arrived late and Collette was there to meet us with cheese, salami and a bottle of wine !! She was a great host. The house was spacious, clean and comfortable. It is in a quiet location, with incredible views of Mt Blanc and the glacier. The patio is an added bonus to the perfect french house. We loved it and can't wait to return again !!!

Très agréable
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans ce chalet bien équipé, bon agencement intérieur pratique pour les sports d'hiver.
L'accueil a été trés chaleureux tant de la part de la propriétaire que de Sophie.
Quel plaisir de se réveiller le matin et de pouvoir admirer un tel panorama : les aiguilles de Chamonix dont la célèbre aiguille du midi, le Mont Blanc, le Brévent... !
Seul petit bémol mais qui n'est pas du fait de la location : l'accès aux pistes avec un service de bus gratuits certes mais souvent très remplis ne permettant pas leur utilisation ou nécessitant une attente très longue entre deux navettes. Dommage également que les chauffeurs ne soient pas très agréables.
