Spacious Penthouse Apartment in Village Location
Sleeps 6 (2 Bedrooms and Mezzanine room)
|
|
Relax in the space and comfort of this lovely apartment. You will be on the top floor of a 200 year old Savoyard farmhouse, recently renovated to give warmth and modern convenience. There are 2 bathrooms – one with a full length bath. You will love staying here, from the oak floors, to the modern kitchen, cozy red couches to the magnificent view. This is a place for gentle relaxation after an exhilarating day on the mountain. Located in the tiny hamlet of Chandon, you are in a French mountain community. The street is so quiet you can sledge down it. Yet you are just a 5 minute drive (or bus ride) to the Meribel ski lifts – the very best of both worlds.

Guest comments
Kate, we had a fantastic week, loads of powder. We loved the apartment it was very comfortable and everything worked. I would love to stay there again - Mark, December 2011
It was pure bliss to come `home' at the end of a hard day's skiing knowing we didn't have to bother going out again because the facilities at the apartment are so good and comfortable. David, March 2011
Lovely apartment and just as you said very well situated. I thought there may have been a fight with my family 19, 21 and 23 as to who doesn't stay in the mezzanine instead they all wanted that room!! Sheila, January 2011
Ideally suited for a family with easy access to Meribel by car or bus, with the bus stop 20m away. The apartment is well equipped, offers good space for 6 and we will certainly consider visiting again in 2011. Russell
Excellent place to stay and chill out after a hard day on the slopes. Lovely people to deal with and will be recommending it to everyone! Greg
Owner profile
About the owner
We bought Chalet Piton in 1998 and did the whole 'no going back' thing. For 8 years we ran a successful catered chalet business and in 2007 decided it was time for something else. We divided the chalet into 5 apartments, selling 3 and keeping 2 which we now let out. We lavished care and attention (not to say lots of money) on making these apartments attractive and comfortable. We spend a month each winter at the Penthouse, with 2 rooms and the mezzanine, it was specifically designed for us, son and daughter-in-law, and the two grandsons!
Year purchased: 1998
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
When setting up our ski holiday business we had to consider several factors - access from UK, the resort 'brand', enough sking for us not to get bored for season after season, etc. Meribel was the result of this academic study. We bought in the village of Chandon, far enough away from Meribel to feel special, a French mountain village with views, quiet streets and a history. But also close enough to have easy access to the whole 3 Valleys. We can actually drive to the Meribel lifts quicker than you can walk from Meribel Centre!
Unique benefits of the property
Being in our apartment in Chandon is about what you get and what you don't get. You don't get a 'French' ski apartment with beds in the corridor and electrical wiring hanging out of the walls. You do get space, style, comfort and all the mod-cons of dishwasher, washing machine and tumble drier. You don't get the noise of the party revelers pooring out of the bars and clubs in the middle of the night, You do get streets so quiet the kids can sledge down them. OK, we're bias, but we love being where we are and we wouldn't change it for the world.
