Alpine Frost

Mont Blanc fills the floor-to-ceiling windows of this timber chalet in Les Houches, framing the Aiguille du Midi for the perfect morning coffee backdrop. The living room, set around a log fireplace, makes it easy to lose an entire evening to the mountains outside, and the wrap-around terrace delivers the same views under open sky. A cedar-lined sauna rounds out the après-ski ritual. The Les Houches ski lifts are a five-minute drive, with Chamonix and its wider ski areas – Brévent, Flégère, Grand Montets – within easy reach.

Home truths:
* You'll need a car to make the most of your stay here. The ski lifts are a five-minute drive away, and central Chamonix is around ten minutes – there's no realistic way to reach either on foot. Parking is provided.
* If you're travelling with a baby or toddler, your host can provide a cot and high chair – you'll need to request these in advance.
* There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home.
* Please note that this home is located near an ongoing construction project. The works are expected to be completed by the end of summer (early September). If you would like more details or have any concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out.
* A complimentary mid-stay cleaning service is included for stays of 14 nights or more.
