There is a golf course at the top of the Pleney lift and a further course at Avoriaz, both easily accessible from Morzine. The Pleney lift is 200m from the apartment and the course is a short stroll from the top of the lift, and we believe, can be accessed by road. The Avoriaz course can also be accessed by road or lift.

Guest comments
This is the second time we've stayed here and they've made loads of improvements. There's a new bathroom, shower room and downstairs loo, and new beds. There now fitted units and a huge TV with satellite and wifi - really useful for keeping up with work. Something happened every day in the square and we had a bird's eye view. The restaurants & night life are buzzing. We liked Etale if you can get a table. If not eat in, as the kitchen has about everything you need and the Spar shop is really handy and opposite the boulangerie, so fresh bread for breakfast! The pass for the Portes du Soleil is more expensive than the Morzine Les Gets pass but it's great if you like to cover lots of new ground - you'll never get bored. The apartment is handy for both lifts and we rented great gear from Yves Tavernier directly opposite and stored it there, although there is a ski locker in the basement. We've even paid our deposit for next year's stay!

Owner profile
About the owner
We live in England with our 2 children. We both work hard, but manage to spend most of our holidays in Morzine and Avoriaz, either skiing or enjoying the hot Alpine sunshine and beautiful summer scenery.
Year purchased: 2009
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
We chose Morzine from the many areas in Europe and North America that we have skied over the years because of the fantastic facilities in the area and it's easy to reach location. There is access to a total of 650km of skiing from Morzine, with something to suit all abilities. Unlike many ski resorts, it remains picturesque and very alpine, and is a proper town with plenty of interest in winter for non-skiiers, and also in summer. Morzine is only 1hr 15mins from Geneva airport or an easy 8hr drive from Calais!
Unique benefits of the property
The apartment is right at the head of the main square in Morzine, the Place de Tourisme, and so overlooks all the entertainment and goings on in the square, including the ice skating in winter. The Pleny lift (for Morzine, Les Gets) and SuperMorzine lift (for Avoriaz and Portes du Soleil) are both only 200 meters from the apartment, close enough to walk in ski boots! We have a ski locker and underground parking, if required (for vehicles below 1.90m). There is a wide choice of restaurants and bars surrounding the town centre.
