Home description

Available for the independent traveller or small groups, it's hard to imagine better value for money than this little house.

Deux Petit Mazots are a lovely pair of holiday houses built in the lively centre of the village of St Jean d'Aulps, in the heart of the Vallee d'Aulps. Separated from the Church carpark by a hedge for privacy, they are a typically Savoyard construction with traditional wood inside and out, and quirky loft bedrooms.

The mazot for rent are located close to all facilities, including small shops, tourist office, fromagerie and a quiet local bar which also serves excellent pizza. Within a minute walking distance there is also a patisserie, paper-shop, ski-hire and clothing store and a variety of restaurants. Both apartments are lovingly and uniquely decorated with all the comforts of home.

St Jean d'Aulps is located 1 hour and 15 minutes drive from Geneva Airport where there are many rental car companies. Private transfers can be included in your accommodation for an extra per-person charge.
Deux Petit Mazots are available for 7-day self-catering holidays and short-breaks.

The Rhone / French Alps / Haute-Savoie region

Rhône-Alpes (Arpitan : Rôno-Arpes; Occitan: Ròse Aups) is one of the 26 regions of France, located on the eastern border of the country, towards the south. The region was named after the Rhône River and the Alps mountain range. Its capital, Lyon, is the second-largest metropolitan area in France after Paris.

Rhône-Alpes is located in the east of France. To the north are the French regions of Bourgogne (Burgundy) and Franche-Comté, to the west it borders the region Auvergne, to the south it borders Languedoc-Roussillon and Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. The east of the region contains the western part of the Alps and borders Switzerland and Italy. The highest peak is Mont Blanc. T

he central part of the region is taken up with the valley of the Rhône and the Saône. The confluence of these two rivers is at Lyon. The western part of the region contains the start of the Massif Central mountain range. The region also borders or contains major lakes such as Lake Geneva (Lac Léman) and Lake Annecy. The Ardèche is home to the deepest gorge in Europe.

As with the rest of France, French is the only official language of the region. 50 years ago, Arpitan was widely spoken in the whole region. Many of the inhabitants of the south spoke varieties of Occitan although it is in steep decline in this region. There were a relatively large immigrant populations from Poland, Italy, Portugal and North Africa, amongst other places.


St Jean d'Aulps area

The chalet is situation on the outskirts of Essert-Romand, which is one of the first villages associated with the much sought after Morzine-Avoriaz location.

The local facilities include a large and modern Champion Supermarket, and numerous smaller supermarkets, and a weekly farmer's market. The local area provides many small businesses typical to the region, and Morzine-Avoriaz itself has much to offer.

Skiing
Morzine-Avoriaz is the centre of the ski area and located approximately 10 minutes away by bus in season. Les Get is within easy access as well.
Wide open spaces, challenging ski-slopes and bump runs for those in search of an adrenalin rush. Deep snow for leaving tracks around a mountain chalet or through the trees…. Long slopes for practising wide turns, ideal for families and the very young to learn on.

From France to Switzerland, there is no end of pleasure to be had here.

Morzine
Morzine features restaurants and bars beyond count, and numerous high quality shopping areas. In winter it features an Olympic Skating rink as well. But it's main attraction is that it is a central and busy hub of the Porte Du Soleil skiing region.

For more information on Morzine-Avoriaz itself, please see:
Morzine-Avoriaz Website

The Port-Du-Soleil
The Porte-du-Soleil is the largest ski area in the world, featuring 650km of piste and considered to be superior to both Chamonix and the 3-Valleys. Further to this it features extensive off-piste facilities.

Chalet Marmottes is between 10-12 minutes from the first lift, which gives access to the whole 7 regions of the Porte-du-Soleil.
