The Chalet
Chalet Les Pelerins was fully renovated during the Summer / Autumn 2007 and the layout was changed to provide “Stylish, Comfortable & Flexible” accommodation. It is a large building – in chalet mode we have 200 sqm for 5 bedrooms, in self-cater mode we have 100 sqm per apartment. We very deliberately wanted to create a airy feel so avoided cramming in more bedrooms.
It can be either a 5 bedroom, 2 lounges luxury chalet or a 6/8 person upper apartment and a 4/6 person middle floor apartment.

Middle floor
The middle floor has a large dining room and lounge area with French doors leading to a large (40 sqm) terrace. There are clear views of Mont Blanc and the Aiguille du Midi. The dining table can seat 14, whilst the lounge area around the open fire can seat 6 to 8. In self-cater mode there is a sofa bed available in the lounge area. There is a flat screen TV, DVD player (with small DVD library) and an IPOD docking music system. Free WiFi access is available throughout.
There is a large, semi-commercial kitchen, with 6 burner gas cooker, large oven, double sink, American style fridge / freezer, dishwasher and plenty of pots and equipment to go.
The double bedroom has a en-suite shower & sink plus plenty of wardrobe and chest of drawer space, and a great view over the landscaped gardens.
The twin bedroom has 2 beds (which can be pushed together to form a double), wardrobe, chest of drawers plus an amazing view out onto the Brevant & Flegere mountains.
There is a bathroom with shower, WC and basin plus an additional WC and wash hand basin.
In self cater mode the apartment can be shut off from the basement and has a separate entrance.
In chalet mode then you can enter from the basement ski room or the front door and also have easy access to the upper floor. All guests eat together in the middle floor whilst there is a second lounge upstairs.
Upper Floor
The centre piece of the upper floor is definitely the large open plan lounge, dining, kitchen area. With massive comfortable sofas to seat 10, high ceilings, views through the Velux windows of Mont Blanc & Aguille du Midi this is definitely a room to relax in. Two sets of French Doors lead onto the balcony with amazing views over the gardens and out to the mountains. There is a flat screen TV and DVD player (with small DVD library). Free WiFi access is available throughout.
The dining room area, despite being highly stylish is also very practical. There is a full size 4 burner halogen hob, combination oven / microwave, half size dishwasher, fridge freezer, sink and expansive work surface.
The master bedroo
The twin/ double room has two single beds (which can be pushed together to form a double), small wardrobe and cupboard space. A combination of Dormer and Velux windows make the room airy and make the most of the views out towards Brevant & Flegere.
The twin room has two single beds, with one tucked into an alcove, a large wardrobe and lots of open shelf space.
There is a large bathroom, bath with shower, WC and basin as well as a separate WC & sink.
Basement Floor
Provides covered access into a ski storage area, has the boiler room, office and a staff apartment.
