“Excellent chalet in friendly french town with enough skiing for 1 week” Chalet size - excellent, the pictures don't do it justice. Chalet quality - excellent with the wood giving a warm feel. the background heating and insulation keep it snug. Location - Excellent, that 50 yards from the ice rink ensues it is a quiet area but still very close to centre. If I try very hard to be picky I would prefer a larger double bed and would accept slightly less space around the bed. However I'm sure that there are others who would have the opposite view. On the first day I might have suggested a toaster in the kitchen but then you would miss out on the French start to the day. As regards price levels I think you are in the right range. If you reduce price to get greater usage through the year you might find the clientele changes with more problems arising. Les Gets as a town/village is superb with all the restaurants we tried being far superior to the equivalent UK.

“Fab chalet, great location, well equipped” A very well equipped chalet, good location and plenty of room for our mixed group of adults and small children to spread out. Warm, well maintained and decorated, felt very homely. Plenty of hot water after a day on the slopes. We will definetly be going back next year.
