Chamonix Valley - Alpine Ski and Mountaineering Capital of Europe.
Winter is about experiencing the snow covered alpine environment. If you are here for adventure, you can ski, board, snowshoe, parapente, and much more. If relaxation is your choice you can walk through the woods on cleared paths, or visit spa facilities in nearby St Gervais, Courmayeur or Martigny. We can organise beauty treatments locally or you can simply kick back over ‘al fresco’ coffee and take in the magnificence that is the Chamonix Valley. The choice is yours.
Summer sees the snow remaining on Western Europe's highest peak Mont Blanc and her neighbours. Click here for more information on Summers at Breathe and Believe

Now that we are all back to the grind, I just wanted to thank you both and say how much we all enjoyed our week in Chalet Annabelle. I still remember that first phone call when Jude took so much time talking through how everything could work to accommodate the young children on their first skiing holiday, those of us that had skied a lot, and the girls who thought they'd want a bit of night life. Your advice saved me hours on the internet and everything worked out brilliantly.
This was our first experience of a catered chalet and we all agreed it is the best way to do a skiing holiday. Your chalet is beautiful and it felt like you had thought of everything - the vast supply of toiletries, loads of fresh towels, the hot tub being really hot, the heated boot room, the games. Coming home to tea and cakes followed by a relax in the hot tub before dinner made for a perfect relaxing end to each day and the evening meals were absolutely superb!
Thanks again, we wish you all the very best for the rest of the season, and hopefully we'll see you again!

this is the second time that my husband and I have stayed at Chalet Annabelle. We fist visited as a couple in 2009 (mixed chalet) and have just been back with the family for the Christmas week (full chalet). Both times have been wonderful experiences.
Jude and Mike are great hosts and handled every query with care and expertise. Their local knowledge is great and they were able to give us advice and information prior to arrival and during the trip itself.
B & M Christmas 2010
Just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for looking after us on our recent trip. It really was quite overwhelming and unexpected to be looked after so well - the team are absolutely buzzing from it so thank you so much.
Whatever we can do to help on our website and facebook pages we will do - and we will look to do something in our magazine in the SS11 season.
SS Marketing Director, Berghaus
You don’t need to change a thing. Thanks for looking after us, see you both soon and thanks for making our holiday great.
SW Regional Manager Malmaison Hotels
Hope you are well booked up this season - you should be. You are fantastic hosts and Amazing food into the bargain!
ES half term 2009
I just wanted to reiterate what a wonderful holiday we had last week. The chalet was wonderful and you made our stay very special.
I am recommending you to my friends and am certain that one couple will come and stay with you.
S & I
I wanted to write a proper message, as my visitor book scrawl was so untidy and not very well thought out. I think above all else, I wanted to say a huge thank you for making my virgin chalet experience such a fantastic one. I really don’t think I’ll be able to stay anywhere else ever again!!
It’s hard to know where to start, but the chalet itself is gorgeous and the décor is very stylish. The finish of everything is brilliant too, and it’s clear that you both have a good eye for detail, which is so important. Those little touches, like the Molton Brown goodies, postcards, fabulous robes and slippers, kir royales, chocolate Easter eggs, really just raised the bar, and made everything just perfect. I personally prefer a very firm bed (no jokes please!) so my only bugbear was I thought the beds were a touch soft, but frankly, that’s the only thing I can think of that wasn’t perfect!
I don’t know where to begin with the food. Absolutely fantastic, from the first dinner to the last breakfast. Highlights for me (and they weren’t easy to choose, believe me) were the onion soup, sundried tomato chicken, and the meringue, and the bread & butter pudding. And as for the cakes. Oh my god – AMAZING! Jude you have a very light whisking wrist there!!
Mike, thanks for always being there to ferry us about and to collect us at the end of the day, always on time and always with a smile. And basically to you both for constantly going above and beyond the call of duty to make our stay so warm and welcoming.
There is no doubt that I’ll be coming back once I’ve returned from my Indian adventure, so until then, good luck with the summer season and the next winter one, and thanks again so very much. I’ll be recommending all my friends, you’ve got my word.
All the very best

Thank you Mike & Jude for a lovely holiday. Delicious food, beautiful chalet and excellent chauffeur service! The skiing was great and we enjoyed the full 'Breathe & Believe' experience! Well done, you're doing a grand job!
M & J de B IoM Mar 09
What can we say... An amazing holiday in Chamonix at Chalet Annabelle. Wonderfully comfortable beds, relaxing hot tub, incredible food and fab wine - what more could you want? Thanks for a lovely stay - we will be telling everyone back home to pay you both a visit! B & M IoM Mar 09
We have had an absolutely fabulous holidays with the other Manxies!! The chalet is beautiful and has felt like home. The food has been incredible especially as you managed to fit in all of Dave's favourite puddings in a week. We'll be hitting the gym when we get home!! To coin a well used phrase 'we'll be back!' probably with a chalet full and again in the summer! Mange Tout L & D IoM Feb 09
Thanks Mike & Jude for an exceptional ski holiday experience - from booking right through til our last day. The food has been fabulous and the cakes to die for. Thanks for all your advice and support through a busy week with 6 - yes 6 children! E,P,E,P, WS Feb half term 09
Third visit to Chamonix and best yet. Brilliant snow combined with the superb hospitality of Mike & Jude and comforts of Chalet Annabelle... A, T & P Feb 09
Unfortunately we are leaving after a wonderful week. We couldn't have found anywhere better to stay. As hosts you cannot be bettered and the chalet is a home from home. The food is fantsatic and I hear Gordon Ramsay is worried..... P&HM IoM Feb 09
Many, many thanks for your wonderful hospitality. The Chalet, the food and your attention to detail are simply outstanding.
MF March 2010
Thank you very much for a great week - excellent hospitality and a very comfortable Chalet. Will recommend highly to my friends!
M Mar 2010
We all had the most fabulous week and left Chalet Annabelle on Saturday with very happy memories. Both you and Mike were fantastic hosts and every aspect of our holiday was perfect, thanks in no small measure to your sterling efforts in looking after us. From the moment we were picked up in Geneva and transferred to your chalet, we felt pampered and welcome, which meant so much to us all. Your chalet is lovely - homely and comfortable, the food just absolutely wonderful, and your kind hospitality much appreciated.
You really do tick all the boxes! We have stayed in numerous chalets now as a group and although we always have a great time, there have often been slight niggles about this and that. I can honestly say, you and Mike have got the perfect balance. The transport was great, the accommodation superb, the food and wine sublime and the sheer comfort factor top notch. You were so friendly but also professional.
It must be quite challenging dealing with different groups every week and I hope we weren't too taxing, other than perhaps that we couldn't make decisions, but your sense of humour every morning Mike, as we deliberated, was very refreshing!
All in all, we truly wish you both every success with your venture. You have a fabulous chalet and are running a company of which you both should be very proud.

Just to say thanks from all of us for your excellent hospitality. We all thought the chalet was excellent, very nice accommodation and ambience and really good food. Also thanks very much for the transport, that worked really well - make a big difference not having the hassle of the buses.
BB Feb 2010
Och aye fit a gran place fir a holiday! Chalet Annabelle is absolutely beautiful and the setting is brilliant. We thank you for your great hospitality, Mike for keeping us right and organising our skis/ pick ups, drop offs and also for your patience with the off pistes! Jude your cooking is amazing - we feel spoiled with the great dinners and lovely cakies!
LW and family Feb 2010
What a wondeful holiday we have had at Chalet Annabelle. Our extended (11) family have enjoyed so much. The cosy chalet, absolutely superb food, the atmosphere, the hot tub, the transport and brilliant skiing - we couldn't have asked for more! A super way to spend New Years eve - good games - but don't ask Mike to tell Harry! Steph and Darrens engagement made it that little bit extra special. We will all go home to the Isle of Man with our own special memories - memories that will last a life time. Thank's Mike and Jude for everything.
