Home description
Occupying the whole top floor of this small chalet style block, Les Girolles is ideal for both winter and summer vacations. Les Girolles is a modern, spacious, 3 bedroom, 2 shower, 2 w/c apartment situated in the centre of Thollon Les Memises within easy walking distance of village amenities including supermarket, cable car to ski station, ski/bicycle hire, tourist office, cafes and bars. Sitting room, master bedroom and bedroom 2 all have doors opening onto large sunny balcony - great for alfresco breakfast. Additional amenities: garage, cave and allocated parking. We are happy for guests to use our sledges stored in the garage at own risk (there's a great slope for sledging just behind Les Girolles).
The village is a small, family orientated ski resort in the winter and in the spring and summer there is so much to do we still haven’t done it all in 4 years of visiting the area.
