About this property

SUPERB CHALET **** - On the slopes, very comfortable

The "1898" is a beautiful and very comfortable independent alpine chalet in a small hamlet surrounded by nature and located 450m from the center of Valmeinier 1800 resort. It has been completely renovated in 2017 with care. The cottage is rated * * * * for 10 people by the Ministry of Tourism. Very sunny, in the summer it is at the start of the treks of the Neuvache Valley classified Natura 2000 and the tour of Mount Thabor. In winter, it enjoys direct access, ski-in ski-out, on the slopes of the Galibier-Thabor ski area (150km of slopes, between 1430 and 2600m above sea level) and snowshoe trails. In winter, you can only walk or ski there.
The chalet combines traditional architecture and aesthetic quality with the principles of the circular economy and the latest techniques of insulation. The stones of the ruin were recovered and admirably rested one by one and by hand. All the craftsmen who have been renovated are from the valley, possessing a precise and unique knowledge.
Spacious and comfortable, this chalet accommodates up to ten people. Skier or not, in winter as in summer, its mountaineer offers many opportunities to relax.
Its area is 112 square meters. Level 1 consists of a living room open on a paved courtyard and including a kitchen, a bedroom for four, a bathroom (with toilet, bath and shower / steam room). Level 2 consists of an entrance area, a living room (with wood stove), an open kitchen. The mezzanine includes a sofa bed, a large video monitor and a library. Level 3 with two bedrooms. The bedding is 200cm in length and particularly comfortable.

Lovely chalet
We had a very nice week at the chalet du desert d'en haut. We loved the skiing area and the chalet was very practical for us as we could ski from and back to the chalet directly. Unfortunately the hammam did not work and a few items in the kitchen were broken or absent. The wifi code had to be obtained from the owner directly - a bit of a fuss but in the whole it is a very modern and well thought chalet. We loved our stay.

Vacances ski en famille
Très chouette chalet dans les alpages Au calme accessible a ski a la descente comme a la montée. L emplacement est sympa (et de notre coté nous avons vraiment adoré être j’ peu a l ecart) mais il faut pouvoir marcher, 500m ce n est pas long mais il y a la montée et la neige donc pour certaines personnes ce n est pas forcément facile. Le chemin passe par la piste, pour descendre les bagages avec une grosse luge ca le fait, la montée est douce donc pareil pour le retour, idealment privilégier les sacs a dos! Le matin nous avions les cours esf a 9h a Valmenier 1800 pour 3 enfants de 5, 7 et 8 ans. Nous partions a 8h30 au chalet et la montée s est toujours bien passée mais il vaut mieux prevoir large car avec les chaussures de ski on ne va pas vite et l’idee n est pas d épuiser les enfants avant les cours 😂 Niveau confort et équipement tout etait ok!

Great house in even greater surroundings
The house is great, fully furnished, nearby the slopes and in a very quiet area (located in a natural reserve). Carrying the luggage and groceries/waste up&down is a bit of a hassle but we knew this in advance… cleaning between guests could be a little more thorough
