Facilities

Further details indoors:
The chalet is officially rated 4 star and is semi detached (duplex style) with rooms on two floors:

GROUND FLOOR
There is a small hall area where you can store coats and snow boots, from here there is a well equipped kitchen which opens out onto the open plan dining and living areas which all have stunning views over the Chastillon valley. The living area has a sofa bed, two seating cubes, a television, a DVD player and a lovely wood burning stove. Off the living area there is also a bedroom with bunk beds and en suite shower room with large heated towel rail. Patio doors open out from the living area onto the large south-facing terrace.

FIRST FLOOR
On the first floor there is one twin bedroom with a fitted wardrobe and one master bedroom with a fitted wardrobe, chest of drawers and its own private balcony with magnificent views. There is also a large bathroom with toilet, basin, bath with shower attachment and a large heated towel rail. Next to the bathroom is a laundry cupboard with washer / tumble dryer, ironing board etc.

Further details outdoors:
The chalet has a large private terrace off the living area which has an outdoor dining table, four wooden chairs, a large bench and two deck chairs on which to soak up the sunshine in privacy! There is also a balcony from the master bedroom with magnificent views over the resort.

The chalet is on the top row of the chalet development, so you can be assured that the terrace is completely private, there are no buildings behind, just unspoilt Alpine meadows and no roads immediately in front, just stunning views! Please note the chalet is only accessible on foot, so it requires walking up a couple of flights of stairs.

The chalet also comes with a secure garage located under the main apartment building of the development next to the road, which has excellent vehicle access especially useful in times of heavy snow. The garage is also very convenient to store your skis in as it is only a few steps to a small piste which leads to the Front de Neige ski area.

The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Alpes-Maritimes region

The Alpes Maritimes region of France has a wide contrast of landscapes with beautiful Mediterranean beaches at the coast and spectacular mountain scenery a little further north. The area is dotted with quaint villages, many with charming restaurants and historic buildings.

The Mercantour National Park is a haven for flora and fauna and is a thoroughly enjoyable place to relax in its serenity. Wildlife includes the bearded vulture, marmottes and chamois which have all been sighted around Isola 2000 which is in the peripheral area of the park.

The Cote d’Azur with its well known towns such as Nice, Cannes and Menton is a vibrant place to visit. The village of Tourettes-sur-Loup is well worth a visit with many small shops and lovely views.

The Alpes Maritimes are the most southern Alps in France and often have better snow conditions than the resorts further north as was the case in December 2006 and January 2007.

The Isola 2000 area

WINTER
The chalet is situated above the main resort of Isola 2000, near the Hameau area. Isola 2000 offers excellent skiing throughout the season; suitable for beginners and intermediates alike. However there are plenty of challenging runs for those who enjoy the thrill of black pistes. The resort has invested in over 160 snow canons to ensure that the slopes are always in great condition and because of it's altitude (1800-2600m) Isola 2000 boasts a high snow and sun record.

There are 42 pistes (7 green, 21 blue, 11 red and 3 black) and 20 lifts (2 cable cars, 7 chairlifts, 10 Poma / button lifts and 1 funicular) and for the 2009-2010 season a brand new 6-seater chairlift was installed - the second fastest in France!

The Ecole du Ski Francais has 110 instructors in the resort and lessons may be booked online via their website. Alternatively we can highly recommend and book an independent instructor for you.

SUMMER
During the summer season there are many activities in and around Isola 2000. Such activities include:
- Horse riding
- Fishing
- Swimming in the outdoor pool
- Tennis
- Mini golf
- Archery
- Mountain biking

There are many wonderful walks, our particular favourites being the Lacs de Terre Rouge and Tete Merciere at the top of the valley.

If you are a keen golfer, there are two golf courses in the area. The nearby resort of Auron has a small 6-hole golf course and a putting green. Valberg, another nearby resort, has a 9-hole 34-par course with 2308m of fairways. Both courses have beautiful mountain views.

40min to Auron from Isola 2000
1h15m to Valberg from Isola 2000

Isola 2000 is ideally located for day trips into Italy (summer months only), you can visit the market town of Cuneo, or the pretty town of Limone Piemonte, from where you can take the train down to the coast at Ventimiglia.
