They can show you the best runs, where to go to avoid queues, warn you when there’s a flat bit coming up so you can pick up some speed, introduce you to the best restaurants and generally save you from having to have your head buried in a piste map so that you can relax and enjoy the stunning views.
Special interest holidays
Our chalet is situated in the picturesque and traditional village of Le Bettaix, just a few minutes from the centre of Les Menuires (pronounced Men-weer). Le Bettaix is two chair lifts or a 6 minute car trip from the centre of Les Menuires.
Le Bettaix has its own chair lift giving you easy access to the whole of the Three Valleys ski area, while retaining a peaceful atmosphere. Every morning you will be driven from the chalet door to the La Bettaix chairlift so that you can start your day with the greatest of ease. At the end of the day you can either ski the blue run back to Le Bettaix, or we will collect you from Les Menuires in our minibus (if appropriate).
Les Menuires is also just two lifts from Val Thorens, the highest ski resort in Europe, guaranteeing you snow from before Christmas until after Easter.

The Three Valleys and Les Menuires are close to several international airports (Chambery 120km, Geneva 145km, Lyon 180km), and we can book your airport transfers for you.
