Ideally Located Ski In and Out Apartment for Groups and Families
1600m Resort Linking Les Arcs and La Plagne
Sleeps up to 10 (3 Bedrooms)
|
|
Your choice: Ski all of Les Arcs or La Plagne, or both! 300m from the apartment is the Vanoise Express - the awesome 200 man cable car which crosses the 1km valley in 4 mins - to ski La Plagne. Or take the 6-man chair to ski Les Arcs. Positioned on a blue run and near a great restaurant the apartment enjoys the truly stunning panorama of the Vanoise National Park. A few mins walk to 2 quaint resorts, Plan Peisey and Vallandry offer great après-ski and restaurants, as well as ski hire and lessons. The closest Eurostar and Snowtrain station is at Landry, the penultimate stop before the terminus at Bourg St Maurice. Landry is about 10 mins from the apartment by taxi, or should you be distracted and miss your stop Bourg St Maurice is still only a further 15 mins away, and an easy transfer by either taxi or bus. Chambery is the closest airport at just over an hour away by car. Transfers from Grenoble and Lyon airports are about 2 hours and Geneva airport is about 2.5 hours away.

Owner profile
About the owner
An extremely keen skier, I love the Alps and have enjoyed staying in chalets, self-catering apartments and hotels in France, Switzerland, Austria, Italy and North America.
Having been introduced to skiing by my Scottish wife("If you can ski in Scotland, you can ski anywhere" - not because it's difficult but because it's mostly awful) our two children are now both truly enjoying the many positives to skiing.
As a Lecturer I am extremely fortunate in having the time to visit the Alps in all the seasons, as summer offers many other thrills.
Year purchased: 2003
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
The area around the apartment is truly beautiful, with an unobstructed view up the valley separating Vallandry and La Plagne.
It is only a few hundred metres from the impressive 200-man cable car linking Les Arcs with La Plagne, with this combined ski domain now known as Paradiski. Beside this is the 6-man chair up to the Les Arcs ski area.
Just 3-minutes walk into the lovely village of Plan Peisey its ski-in/out location really does make it ideal for a fantastic week of skiing - as easy or as challenging as you want!
Unique benefits of the property
Apart from its ideal location the apartment allows guests to truly relax. The very comfortable lounge is convivial to a chill-out mood.
The kitchen is equipped to offer the more adventurous chefs scope to create, or for those who just want to flop the convenience to do so!
The dining room comfortably seats 8 whilst listening to your own CD's or radio.
The apartment allows a large party or a couple of families more than the average amount of room to enjoy a week together without tripping over each other or having to sleep in any living area.
