Property Details of Alps Chalet

Situation

The chalet is ideally located in a tranquil village of Le Biot, just 10 minutes drive from the services and amenities of the lively market town of Morzine, one of the key centres of the vast Porte du Soleil ski area, one of the largest inter-connected ski areas in the world. The smaller ski areas of St Jean d’Aulps and Drouzin, ideal for beginners, are even closer


Chalet Lisborg is a 5* state of the art, traditionally built chalet, specifically designed to provide excellent comfort and convenient accommodation for those who embrace all types of Alpine pursuits and a little pampering! The chalet is south facing and enjoys uninterrupted mountain views across alpine meadows, in an area of outstanding natural beauty.

Designed specifically for the sports enthusiast, when returning from an active day in the mountains, enter the chalet straight into the spacious boot room. Hang your coat in the drying cupboard and place your boots on the boot warmer. A shower to freshen up, with 500 litres of available hot water – everyone can shower simultaneously. Maybe a sauna to sooth those aching bones or grab a glass of wine and from the hot tub watch the sun set behind the mountains. Fully relaxed, now enjoy a typical Savoyade dinner served at the 12 seater oak dining table and share the adventures of the day. Replete, perhaps time for a ‘digestif’ in front of the roaring log fire before sleep beckons with the promise of tomorrow.

Local Area Details

Surrounding area
The chalet is quietly located in the village of Le Biot The village benefits from a couple of restaurants a bar tabac and bakery St Jean d Aulps less than 5 minutes away has a wider range of facilities including large supermarket petrol station a couple of excellent restaurants pizzeria bar pharmacy and bank Morzine and Les Get s a further 5 minutes away with a full range of restaurants bars and clubs

It is worth highlighting that the towns in this area have grown as traditional market towns with a cosy Christmas card atmosphere quite unlike some of the purpose built aesthetically challenged French resorts Winter season The Portes du Soleil ski area links the French resorts of Morzine Lets Gets Avoriaz and Chatel with the Swiss resorts of Morgin and Champery

There are over 650kms of marked piste 208 lifts and over 100 mountain restaurants catering for all levels of skier In addition to the extensive skiing there are delightful wooded trails and spectacular mountain views across to Mont Blanc and Lake Geneva The sheer size of the ski area enables it to accommodate busy periods with independent skiers able to avoid some of the choke points by simply driving to one of the out of town car parks with express lifts to the heart of the ski area Boarders will enjoy the numerous snow parks with jumps and pipes to really get the adrenalin pumping

The snow record - there has been a great deal of concern over global warming and the effect on snow fall Portes du Soleil is one of the most northerly of all French ski areas Avoriaz with a top lift at 7500ft guarantees snow all season Morzine and Les Gets top lift 6000ft are lower but never the less have excellent snow records Personally the ambience and real Gallic charm of these towns more than compensate when compared to the soul less bleak high altitude resorts It is interesting that once at these purpose built high altitude resorts eg Val Thorens the lack of competition for restaurants ski schools and accommodation promotes a less relaxing take it or leave it attitude which really does effect how you feel about your winter ski experience

In addition to skiing and boarding there is also a huge cross country ski area snow shoeing skidoo rides sleigh rides snow parapenting and much more Non winter season When the snow has melted the area has still a huge amount to offer

The Portes du Soleil has invested heavily to turn itself into a year round destination The sheer beauty and clean air provides a perfect backdrop to relax and unwind However the mountains can be a fabulous playground for all active or gentle
