Le Chant du Nant is a beautifully restored traditional chalet in Le Biot, close to Morzine. It is simply outstanding; cozy, characterful and very spacious. As a family of four, we had everything we needed for a fabulous Christmas Skiing holiday, complete with log fires and Christmas Tree! The owners are on hand if needed but the chalet itself is quite separate and private from their accomodation. The skiing in the Portes Du Soleil is so vast and varied; there is something for everyone. We loved the wide open tree lined pistes down to Morzine and the 'Les Linderets' area near Avoriaz.. This chalet is a real gem! |

We visited Le Chant du Nant in Autumn 2010. Le Biot is ideally located for Winter or Summer vacations. Thonon and Evian offered us splendid days out at Lac Leman and trips around the adjoiniong Alps to Chamonix, Chatel and Switzerland made it a most memorable stay. The accomodation was ideal for our requirements (4 adults) with every necessary facility, situated in a most peaceful village location, ideally secluded and peaceful. We were greeted most warmly by our hosts and instantly felt at home and at ease with all aspects of our chosen accomodation. It is our intention to re-visit at the very earliest opportunity and would thoroughly recommend it as an absolutely ideal self catering holiday location, Winter or Summer. |

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Le Chant du Nant is superb and with snow plus sun we really experienced the beauty of the Haute Savoie. Lesley & Martyn made you comfortable and welcome - so after a busy life in the UK and a long drive down we could relax in our luxury holiday chalet. Thank you. Can we come again?
The Bellews, East Peckham, Kent - January 2007
Thank you Martyn and Lesley for letting us be part of alpine village life during our stay at Le Chant du Nant. The apartment was far more than we had expected with such lovely decoration and such wonderful spaciousness. We were originally concerned that we were not on the ski slopes, but in fact it was much better as every day we had an exciting decision to chose which of the extensive resorts we would go to that day. In all we had a fantastic holiday with such hospitable hosts and in such a beautiful setting. The decision for next year is not where we will go but when we will book with you!
See you next year if not before!!
Sue, Keith and family
