Returned for our second mountain bike holiday at Chalet Koala and enjoyed a fabulous 6 night break. Julia is a very relaxed and easy going hostess. All we had to do was ride our bikes, eat food, and have a holiday! Perfect. Airport transfers were arranged and booked for us by Julia. Communication via e mail prompt and helpful. We were greeted by a midnight buffet on arrival. Chalet Koala is detached with a good sized garden including pool (now heated) and sun loungers. Late afternoon swim ideal to cool off before enjoying excellent and generous home cooked food washed down with some fine local wine. A great finish to every day. After dinner choice of table tennis in the basement for those with energy, or TV in the homely comfortable lounge, aided by bar and honesty book, or tea and coffee. Or a 5min walk 2min pedal to a choice of local bar. The chalet is an ideal base for mountain bikers. Chalet Koala is a 5-10min cycle on road to the SuperMorzine and Pleney lifts of Morzine itself. Gentle incline to warm legs in the morning, and a helpful mostly freewheel back after end of day beer. It can be reached directly at the bottom of the descent from Lindaret /Lac Montriond valley. Hose and jetwash for bike cleaning, whether it be dust or mud, and lockable storage. We managed to get 7 bikes into the garden shed. Bedrooms are fairly basic. We were downstairs, each room has a sink and wardrobe, with shower / bathrooms close by. Its really a no hassle, great place to stay. Easy to feel at home. Very good value for money. We will be back. |
