Les Coches provides direct access to both the La Plagne and Les Arc ski areas via the Vanoise Express.

Guestbook
Apartment was great. Everything we needed and more. Couldn't be handier for slopes, shops and ski hire.
Thanks for all your help - as first time skiers, the advice on ski schools was invaluable. Legs ached a bit - but nothing a soak in the jacuzzi couldn't put right!
Really enjoyed our stay - I can still picture myself on the balcony, with a cold beer, taking in the view over Mont Blanc as the last of the evening sunshine faded -happy days - we'll be back next year.
Great resort, great apartment, great snow - what more can I say!
