Chalet Vionnet

A perfect base for winter or summer stays in the Alps! Le Vionnet is a contemporary yet cosy standalone chalet in a picturesque riverside location. By car you can access the Ardent gondola at the heart of the vast Portes du Soleil in under 10 minutes, and yet upon your return the stresses of everyday life feel a million miles away as you soak up the views whilst soaking your muscles in the hot tub!

When imagining the ideal stay in the Alps it is fair to say that most of us would start with a spacious chalet, quality facilities and views of mountains and forests. Le Vionnet ticks all of those boxes and more, and when you add in our concierge service and flexible range of winter catering upgrades it is a real winner. From a pure self-catered stay to bakery deliveries, magic meals to your door or a chef at home service, we can make it happen. Your chalet, your way! We are open in between winters for self-catered stays too, and this tranquil and spacious chalet has plenty of outdoor space to take advantage of those long sunny days. 

This beautiful 4-bedroom property in the village of Montriond sleeps 8 and is ideal for families or for groups of adults looking to get away from it all. The cable car at Ardent is just up the valley and from here you will be able to explore the snow sure slopes of big-hitting Avoriaz and Chatel as well as venturing further to the sunny and often-deserted pistes of the Swiss sector.

Once inside the chalet you will be pleasantly surprised at the top-quality renovation of what is a traditional building, and the open plan nature of the communal areas only adds to the sense of relaxation and conviviality.

The first floor of the chalet is a fantastic sociable space with a sleek and well-equipped kitchen, a cosy lounge area with log burning stove and satellite TV, and a good-sized dining table around which you can enjoy a hearty dinner and swap stories from the ski day. A door on this same level leads out to a nice balcony and terrace as well as the 6 man hot tub in which you can enjoy stunning views in total privacy. For summer guests this outdoor space is ideal for barbecues, al fresco dining and to clean off those bikes (hose available).

The ground floor contains a wide hallway in which to abandon outdoor shoes and jackets and a practical ski and boot storage room should you opt to store them at the chalet overnight. There is also a spacious master bedroom with a king size bed, ample storage and an ensuite shower room with WC. A practical laundry room and extra WC make up the remainder of the ground floor.

The sociable spaces described above make up most of the first floor but you will also find a gorgeous bunk room with full size single beds. Children will love it but be prepared for a battle for the top bunk! This room will also sleep 2 adults. On the top floor of the chalet there are two further bright and airy bedrooms, both with private balconies and set up as twins. Finally, there is a spacious bathroom with WC, shower cubicle and a luxurious free-standing bath.

The chalet is offered on a self-catered basis but we can also offer breakfast deliveries or an upgrade to our fabulous Magic Meals Flexi-Catering service with breakfast, afternoon cakes and fabulous 2 course evening meals delivered to the door. This system offers total privacy, great value for money and fabulous meals with zero effort. 

The service is provided by the local bakery and our good friends at Alpine Adventure. No more cutting short your ski day to go shopping and prepare dinner, this really is fab food with zero hassle and at a fraction of restaurant prices. The cost is just £220 per person per week and more details can be found on our own website.

If you want to really spoil yourself we can also organise a Chef at Home service with your own private chef at breakfast and dinner time. Ask us for more details - we even have a choice of classic or gourmet menus!
