Home description
This beautiful, large 4 bedroom apartment has a spacious, bright and open plan living area comprising a large dining table (seating 10), lounge area and very well equipped modern kitchen. The styling of the architecture is modern, yet remains respectful of traditional materials and tastes, with open beams and some pine walling.
The ground floor is also home to a large double bedroom, which sits opposite the family bathroom, and comes with plenty of storage space with wardrobes and a chest of drawers. Stepping through the living area, you'll reach the second bedroom with two sets of bunk beds and its own full en-suite bathroom. This bedroom also benefits from a set of french doors that open onto a private balcony.
Walking up the wooden spiral staircase from the lounge you'll arrive on the mezzanine, which overlooks the living area and has a double bed, a couple of bedside tables, a chest of drawers and a wardrobe. The final bedroom, a lovely twin bedded room with low sloping ceilings, can also be found on the top floor.

The Rhone / French Alps / Haute-Savoie region
St Gervais and its surrounding area is famous for the great skiing in winter (access to 500km of piste!) and in summer the outstanding climbing, cycling and walking. The town has a good snow record in the winter and in the summer and autumn it is warm and sunny.
St Gervais Les Bains area
Saint Gervais is a beautiful savoyard village with a friendly atmosphere. It is home to Europe's highest mountain, Mont Blanc and has been a popular holiday destination for over a hundred years. The village is steeped in history and the lovely baroque church is the central point of the village. There are a good range of shops, supermarkets, bars, potteries, art galleries and restaurants and every Thursday morning there is a market, when the village's main square becomes a hive of activity.
St Gervais has a huge number of activities on offer. It is popular with walkers and cyclists in the summer -it is one of the starting points for the Tour du Mont Blanc - and in the winter Saint Gervais has a large ski area (over 400 km) which links to nearby Megeve. The Evasion Mont Blanc ski pass will give you access to St Gervais, St Nicholas de Veroce, Les Contamines, Megeve, Combloux and La Glettaz. The Mont Blanc Tramway can be taken from Saint Gervais to the Bellevue plateau (1800m) or the Prarion giving skiers access to the Les Houches ski area in winter. Or it can be taken by walkers or those just wishing to see the wonderful panorama in winter or summer.
Parapenting, water sports and golf (the nearest course is Megeve) are all easily available nearby.
For those who would like to relax a little St Gervais's famous thermal parc offers complementary therapies and massage. The village also has an open air swimming (open June-September), an olympic sized ice rink, tennis courts and mini-golf (summer only).
The towns of Megeve and Chamonix are just a 20 minute drive away and the pretty medieval town of Annecy is one hour away should you wish to explore a little further.
