The Sanctuary Chalet

Overlooking the Alpine village of Megève, this spectacular chalet is home to panoramic views and world class amenities. While the décor is in traditional Alpine style, with wooden beams, vaulted ceilings and sheepskin throws aplenty, there’s a hearty injection of decadence, too. The basement has been converted into a luxurious wellness area. Work up a sweat on the treadmill, or simply swim lengths in the spa pool, with its ambient lighting and in-built jacuzzi. After a day of skiing or hiking, relax your muscles with a massage and brighten your glow with a hammam treatment. Huge glass windows upstairs mean you can soak up views of the mountains, including Mont Blanc, from your sofa.

On warmer days, make use of the wraparound terrace and dine alfresco in the sunshine. With seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms, there’s plenty of space and privacy for everyone. The centre of Megève is within walking distance, where you’ll find French restaurants, bakeries, and supermarkets. In the winter months, drive five minutes to hit the slopes at the Megève ski resort. Come spring, the landscape turns glowing green, and Alpine flowers begin to blossom. There are breathtaking hiking trails nearby as well as Luge 4S, a summer toboggan run which the kids will adore 800 metres from the house. After a day of adventures, cosy up together in the cinema room for a hard earned movie. Whatever the season, this chalet has all the elements for an unforgettable holiday.
