About this property

Apartment in Beautiful Alpine Village

The apartment is in a building which was once a small hotel in the old village of Le Tour at the head of the Chamonix valley. The village has 2 bars/restaurants and is 2km from the larger village of Argentiere where there is a supermarket and a good variaty of other shops, bars and restaurants. Le Tour gets a lot more sun than other areas around Chamonix because it is in a higher and more open part of the valley. The windows look onto the old church and some very picturesque old houses, it is also possible to see the Le Tour Glacier. The apartment has parking just in front of the garden and is just 50 meters from the ski area car park. The Le Tour Gondola which is open in the summer for access for walking, mountain biking and the mountain restaurant is just a 2 minute walk from the apartment. From the Chamonix valley it is easy to explore other parts of the Alps. The Aosta valley is just the other side of the Mont Blanc Tunnel and Switzerland is just over the Coll de Montets.

Gelungener Aktivurlaub

Schön eingerichtete und komplett ausgestattete moderne Wohnung.Alles sauber und funktionstüchtig. Stabiles WLAN.Hervorragende Ausgangsbasis für Touren aller Art im Tal zwischen Servoz und Valorcine.Kostenloser Bus und Bahntransfer mit der Gästekarte(Hunde zahlen 50%),auch etliche Wandermöglichkeiten direkt vor der Haustür.. Die Wohnung liegt an einer belebten Straße im Eingangsbereich des Hauses.Das hat uns nicht gestört,weil wir tagsüber nicht da waren und es abends ruhig war.Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen,wir haben noch nicht alles gesehen und kommen bestimmt wieder.

Sehr schöner, ruhiger Urlaub

Fragen wurden schnell beantwortet, check - in war problemlos. Das Appartement liegt ruhig, Bushaltestelle sehr nahe. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet, die Waschmaschine ist sehr praktisch, vor allem weil wir jeden Tag wandern waren. Wanderkarten liegen bereit. Auch der Staubsauger war praktisch. Die Abstellfläche im Bad ist großzügig, es war für alles Platz da !! Wir hatten zwei wunderschöne Wochen, danke !!

Super

En arrivant je pensais être plus proche de chamonix mais c était un avantage pas un inconvénient c était calme tout en étant proche des randonnées et de tout Appartement propre ,fonctionnel ,bien équipé Canapés pas hyper confortables en fonction lit mais les couettes chaudes et moelleuses nous ont enchanté Place de parking réservé à la résidence De plus les cartes hôte permettant de voyager en bus et train dans la vallée sont un plus Seul petit bémol les livres dans l appartement sont tous en anglais .... Allez y vous vivrez des vacances formidables

Petit nid douillet au sein d'un écrin de nature enchanteresse

Merci au propriétaire pour la délicatesse avec laquelle il pense à chacun des besoins que nous pourrions avoir, et à toutes ses attentions ! Le studio est petit, mais extrêmement bien conçu, avec tout le nécessaire. Et même si, nichés au rez-de-chaussée d' une petite rue, très jolie au demeurant, et donc n'ayant pas d'accès à une vue directe sur les montagnes, nous avons pu profiter des bienfaits du petit jardin à l'arrière, pour lire ou manger ou contempler les sommets enneigés... Lorsqu'il fait beau, il n'y a donc aucune place pour des regrets, que du contraire ! Merci encore !

really comfortable, well equipped and good location.

Alastair, the owner, has put a lot of thought into this lovely and well equipped apartment. the single bedroom has a very comfortable double bed and there are plenty of additional bed spaces with pull out bed and bed settee in the living room for a family happy to share the open space. The bathroom is lovely and a lot of thought has gone into the unusually (for this size apartment in the Alps) well laid out kitchen area. For skiers it's a very short walk to the telicabine and an even shorter walk from the bottom of the nursery slope back to the apartment.

A great Stay

The apartment is in a great location within the old pretty village of Le Tour. It is close to the beginners area Valmoraine which was perfect for teaching my 3 year old. There is a free small drag lift and it’s the best area to learn in the valley. The apartment itself was well equipped if you choose to cook. It was clean and there were little extra things provided like soap, plenty of loo roll, washing up liquid, bin liners and also a fast free WiFi internet. The only thing it hasn’t got is some outside space where to enjoy the sunshine. Le Tour is the sunniest area in the valley but it makes up for this as it lies within the petty hamlet of the old village. We would recommend this home away destination and hope to return.

Lovely compact apartment

It is a lovely apartment with everything that we needed. The washing machine was a welcome addition. It was a good size for two people. Access to a lovely garden with fabulous views down the valley and of Mont Blanc. The owner was very helpful and have great information about the apartment and directions and access. Really enjoyed our stay here and hope to be back soon.

Well appointed apartment in an idyllic location

We booked this apartment as a base for my wife to run the Mont Blanc marathon, with pre-event training walks and runs in the area. It is also a great base for rock climbing and mountaineering trips and of course skiing in winter. It was a great location and the apartment met our needs in every way, with abundant hot water, well equipped kitchen and a generally relaxing environment after our trips. Since we had great weather we enjoyed relaxing in the garden as well. Highly recommended.

skiing holiday

we have just spent an idilic week here. The appartment is clean, well equiped, and well located for what we wanted. The kitchen had every thing needed to cook for a few people. There was even condiments and bin bags etc. The shower/bath was efficient and hot. The heating was easy to use and the appartment heated up very quickly once we came in from skiing. The location was perfect for ys as my daughter attended the esf ski school in morning and we walked there in 3 minutes and cud lunch at home. Buses were eratic which made going out in evening difficult. Owner very helpful and has a thorough information pack. Even had maps etc in appartment. He wzs quick to repky to any email enquiry and knows area realky well. Loved it!

About the host

Hosted by Alastair Dawson

Host profile image
I am a ski instructor currently working on Cairngorm in Scotland. Some years ago I was given the opportunity to work for the Evolution 2 ski school in Chamonix and spent 5 very happy winters teaching skiing in the Chamonix valley and living in the apartment in Le Tour. In summer I have been working as an outdoor instructor for the almost 30 years but now spend most of my time doing woodwork and gardening at my home in the Grampian foothills in Aberdeenshire. I try to spend at least a month at the apartment each winter and a couple of weeks in the summer and autumn, walking, cycling and climbing.
