Situated in the Pyrenean village of La Cabanasse, this charming chalet provides the ultimate escape to the mountains. Throw open the front door, and you’re met with a warm welcome, with deep, inviting sofas just asking for you to sit back and relax. Let your eyes travel around the living space, combined with a dining area that gives you a glimpse out at the mountains and a sleek kitchen, perfect for rustling up a delicious dinner to replenish your energy after a day outdoors. This is the heart of the home, without a doubt, and a place where your loved ones can spread out across the space and socialise. We love the staircase to this home – so quirky but utterly perfect in its surroundings, as it winds its way upstairs to the bedrooms. When weariness sets in and it’s time to rest your head, there’s little to choose between the bedrooms, which are all stylish and comfortable, guaranteeing a blissful night’s sleep. Depending on the season, whether you’ve spent the day skiing, kayaking or hiking, this home provides the perfect retreat at the end of an exhilarating day. Slip into your Jacuzzi to soothe those aching muscles, a rich glass of red wine in hand, and you’ll feel completely relaxed. As night falls and the bubbles warm your skin, look up to the blanket of stars that drape themselves over the mountains. Is there a more tranquil way to end your day? We don’t think so.
