Chalet Chic

Chalet Chic: Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

Settle into mountain life with a stay at this toasty chalet in the much-loved alpine resort of Argentière. With a fabulous location close to the piste and easy access to summer activities, it's a convenient and cosy place to relax between your outdoor adventures.

Step inside, and you'll find an open-plan space with wood panelling and a warm colour scheme – it's the ideal spot to spend some quality time with your friends or family. Cook up a tasty meal in the kitchen to refuel after a long day, then flop down on the squashy sofa with a good book or your favourite movie. And, when the weather allows, you can head out to the patio to sip a glass of Chablis as you admire the views across to Mont Blanc.

From here, the Grands Montets ski lifts are just a six-minute walk, meaning you can be one of the first people onto the fresh snow each morning. There is also a cross-country ski area close by, and if you want to drive over to Chamonix then the journey will only take fourteen minutes. And, if you're visiting during the summer months then you can take your pick from rock climbing, hiking, mountain biking and many more activities close by.
