About this property

An authentic 3 bedroom chalet over 3 levels which makes this property unique as it is as affordable as an apartment but you get your own stand-alone traditional chalet - ideal for a small group of friends, a romantic getaway for any couple or the perfect retreat for a family.

Located a 5 minute walk from the Telecabine and 10 minute walk into the town.

It is an original 'mazot' (traditional mountain chalet) which has been tastefully renovated to retain the original alpine charm with timber clad walls, exposed beams and log burner.

It is small and but delightfully cosy and comfortably sleeps 6 people as there are two double bedrooms and a bunk room which has the en-suite toilet and sink. As it's an authentic lodge the beams in some of the rooms are low!

There are also two large decking areas complete with outdoor furniture and bbq which overlooks the pretty town of st gervais and the mont blanc mountain range.

Please note this is a ‘Mazot’ so if you are looking for small, cozy and romantic this is for you and you will love it! It does have steep stairs and some low beams so don’t book if you want spacious, modern or require one level!

Great location but spoiled by key details

The chalet is very small, as described, and is too cramped for for more than one family. The information mentions two bathrooms, this is not the case it has one bathroom and a cloakroom, i.e. only one shower/bath. The bedding is of poor quality (polyester fibre), is very old and stained. The pillows are also polyester and very tired. The upstairs bed sags badly in the middle and the bed slats on the bunks are broken. The sofa in the lounge is broken making it impossible to sit comfortably in front of the TV. The one bathroom lacks an extractor fan and so smells of damp. The waste in the shower also smells of drains which then permeates throughout the downstairs area. Lastly the bathroom lock has been 'repaired' with a screw for a handle and the cloakroom has a twig to replace the broken toilet roll holder. For these reasons we do not think this property is good value for money and would not recommend it to anyone as it stands.

Décevant

Certains équipements ont besoin d’être changés: joints de la douche noircis, casserole au revêtement très abîmé. Le poêle n’´est pas utilisable ( a la demande de la propriétaire) L’assise d’un des canapé est très abîmée donc on s’enfonce dedans, c’est très inconfortable, Ménage à revoir : la grille du four n’avait pas été nettoyée et présentait des restes alimentaires, un pyjama d’enfant a été retrouvé au sol dans le salon à notre arrivée. L’aspirateur était plein nous avons dû le vider pour l’utiliser. Nous avons mal dormi dans la chambre sous les combles car il y avait toutes les nuits des bruits de grattements dans le mur à la tête du lit. Vraiment dommage car petit chalet très sympathique

bon séjour

joli mazot très fonctionnel. il est rare d'avoir trois chambres individuelles dans un espace si restreint ( et deux WC!) donc tout y est petit mais propre, très bien organisé et hyper mignon, le tout à qqes minutes à pieds du centre de Saint Gervais. nous avons bénéficié d'un temps exceptionnel donc nous avons pu profiter de la terrasse avec BBQ, un bonheur! merci à Laura avec laquelle les échanges sont très réactifs et agréables.

About the host

Hosted by Laura Hollins

I bought the chalet in 2007 as I grew in the French Alps and I am very passionate about the mountains, both for skiing and during the summer months. Now that I live and work in London, it is my perfect retreat from the city, and I hope you love it as much as I do! Laura

Why they chose this property

This property is particularly special to me as I came to St Gervais as a child to ski, but also because my dream has always been to have a home, even if only part of the year, that is as authentic and rustic as the properties I used to love skiing past on the mountain side...

What makes this property unique

The views are spectacular and it is a peaceful place yet has an abundance of character as it was built over 200 years ago so it really is the real thing...
