Chalet Russell is an 1829 framhouse


Run by husband and wife team Jack and Kathy Russell, who live here year round with their 2 cocker spaniels, the aim of Chalet Russell is to provide holidays, mainly for families and small groups that really meet the individual’s needs. Built in 1829 Chalet Russell is a traditional Savoyarde farmhouse that has been carefully modernised with sympathy to its history while providing up to date comfortable accommodation. It is located on the route from the main village centre to the ruins of the Abbey. In approx 7mins it is possible to walk to the village centre where you can find a selection of bars, shops and restaurants. The village has built up from its traditional farming background and now has a mixture of French ‘locals’ and English and Dutch ex-pats. Situated on the main route between the Autoroute blanche in the south and Lac Leman in the North its location is ideal for a huge range of summer and winter activities.
