Chalet Snowflake - based in the mountain village of Montchavin, a gem in the heart of Paradiski (La Plagne/Les Arcs) 425km of piste.
Snowflake Chalet
Chalet Snowflake is in a fabulous location in Montchavin Village with stunning mountain views which light up at night. From the main living space there is a good sized balcony where you can have a glass of wine whilst watching the mountains turn a beautiful sunset pink.
Chalet Snowflake is your home for the week and, because you are in the village it makes it very easy for you to come and go as you please. If you have small children it’s easy to pop back to the chalet if they need a break. Adults too! This chalet is ski in subject to snow conditions.
There is a small comfortable snug for those wishing to watch a movie. We also have a games console with games and some old school board games available too. The bedrooms are all ensuite (1 with a bath) some with balconies and 1 with a small garden. Complimentary toiletries are provided. We also have a sauna with a mountain view.
Thank you for an amazing week! We had a brilliant time skiing, made even better by the exceptional reception we had on our return each day. We have been thoroughly converted to chalet holidays
A great week of skiing, weather, food, relaxing and hurting! Thanks for being great hosts and making our stay in this lovely chalet even more enjoyable. We don't want to have to wait until next year to go skiing again!
