Chalet Chambertin is a fantastic find for style-savvy skiers considering hitting the slopes with a little one in tow. Not only is this 7-bedroom chalet stylishly furnished and expertly run by friendly ex-pat couple Emma and Olly, but it also comes with their mini-host and son Luc (born 2007) too. Novice snowboarder and frequent playmate to guest toddlers 'Luc' is also chief tester for the baby gear, nannies and child-friendly services (See grey box below) available at the chalet or surrounding area. As a result, BFB guests can be confident that the management are exceptionally well-versed in the needs of young families and very happy to offer advice and arrange services from nappy packs and nannies, to lift passes and ski boots!

Little ones will love the balcony hot tub overlooking the winter wonderland below, and the downstairs playroom, equipped with enough movies, games and toys to ensure they are entertained, occupied and, even, educated at all times. The room is easily converted into a crèche with nannies, or grown-ups cinema room. When not working their way through the huge film collection, adults tend to appreciate the hot tub, sauna and sociable dining room with honesty bar, where the chalet's talented chef cooks up delicious home-made dinners and fresh baked breakfast pastries, all with free flowing wine or coffee. The seven en-suite bedrooms are arranged around a spacious central lounge area with real log fire, which makes the ideal spot for some quiet relaxation and recounting the day’s activities. There's one family bedroom with double and two singles, and six rooms for two with zip n' link beds making twin or super king, all have space for a cot/additional child bed. The lovely 100% Egyptian cotton sheets, over down duvets and pillows can be very hard to leave but the modern bathrooms (all en-suite) with their invigorating showers and luxurious fluffy towels soften the blow considerably.

Reviews

The chalet itself is scenically set in the largely unspoilt and charming Valley de la Manche, 3km from the centre of Morzine. It is far enough from the bustle of town to ensure relaxation, yet ideally located for access to the Nyon ski lift and no more than a few minutes’ drive from either the Avoriaz or Pleney/Les Gets areas. Emma and Olly operate a very handy minibus service to take guests around the local area.

Getting There: The chalet is approx. 20 minutes from Geneva aiport, where there can be an arranged pick up and drop off service (other transfers can be arranged from else where in the French Alps on request)

Nearest Medical Services: The centre of Morzine is 5 minutes drive away in which there are several doctors.

Owner Profile

Hello and welcome to our little section! It's a great opportunity to introduce ourselves and for you to get to know us.

Myself and my 'now' husband Olly came to Morzine out of sheer desperation to escape London, start our own business and try for a family. We succeeded in all 3! Winter 2011 is our 4 th winter here and our son Luc will be 3 years old! My how time flies! We now have 3 catered chalets in and around Morzine, a laundry company and a locations & production company all based from our little office, Olly built!

Me - Emma, runs the office taking bookings and organising every part of your holiday from meeting you at the airport to making sure that you have enough nappies for the week. Oh, I forgot, I also run the laundry business - washing and ironing over 60 beds per week (I like to forget about that!). Olly, loves showing you the mountain and giving you the best days skiing you can remember - he is also the man about town, transferring you to and from the airport and makes sure that your holiday is running perfectly. During the summer months we both run the chalet - Olly dons the chef's whites and creates a feast on the BBQ and I fluff the cushions and serve the wine!

Morzine offers a special something for everyone of every age all year round. Winter is our main attraction due to the lovely white stuff that falls, covering the 650KM of pistes that surrounds Morzine and the Portes du Soleil, making it the largest linked ski area in the world. There are slopes for every age and every ability and plenty of gorgeous Alpine 'vin chaud' stops along the way.
The summer is a fast growing holiday destination, offering numerous activities for the children and adults alike - a fabulous climate and a relaxing atmosphere.
We love the chance to show the mountains to all whilst looking after you in our lovely chalet. We have spent the past 4 years - doing this and that and adding this and that to really give a welcoming and friendly atmosphere while providing luxurious comfort.
It's such a pleasure to meet new clients and wave you off at the end of a week as new found friends.

Children love; I think most of all the Playroom! The mountains of toys - all boxed for certain ages, the beautiful plush fitted carpet (which is far nicer than bare wooden floors in most chalets!) and the library of DVD's (sorry!) Coming in a very close 2nd is the large garden, where in the winter huge snowmen can be found and in the summer the sand pit and little mini chalet with many outdoor games whiles away the hours!
Kids love the interaction with the chalet staff, in particular the chef who gets them involved in making their own pizzas and makes cooking (and the eating part) fun!
Apart from bringing their favourite 'Mr Bunny Rabbit', we have everything they could need at the chalet from sledges to bumbo's and Peppa Pig DVD's to Thomas the Tank Engine story books.
For the Mum's and Dad's it's also nice to know that we have (and is included in the cost) easily adjustable Tripp Trapp high chairs to Bumbo's and Baby Bijorns to all the branded nappies you need for the week. Thus making packing and the all important baggage allowance - tres easy!!
