Rosablanche (chalet)

Home description

An architect designed chalet, completed in 2005, "Rosablanche" offers stunning five-star luxury throughout. Situated at 1400 metres, there are breathtaking views from every room, many offering an uninterrupted vista of the glorious Rhone valley. Whilst floor to ceiling windows frame the picture postcard views in winter, a large sun terrace (complete with fitted BBQ) and balcony ensnare the sun in summer. With over 200 square metres of habitable space, this capacious chalet accommodates 10 people in comfort. It features 4 double bedrooms with ample wardrobe and draw space. One also features en suite facilities, whilst the other three share two bathrooms. There is a large open plan living area with central fire place, and a second lounge area on a mezzanine floor which also features a sofa bed, and bathroom/WC. The chalet also boasts a utility room and a luxury, well-equipped designer Kitchen. The chalet is situated within the village, just a 3 mins walk from shops.

Skiing
Veysonnaz offers something for the novice and experienced skier alike. The season runs from a few weeks before Christmas until the middle of April. The most famous run, ‘The path of the bear’ (Piste de L’Ours) is a frequent location for Alpine Ski World Cup competition, and across the four valleys are a total of 100 runs, the majority red, but a quarter are blue and the remaining five are black. Ample gondolas, chair lifts and surface lifts get you to the top of the runs with ease, whilst the use of snow cannons ensure the runs will be in great condition for you when you get there. It is possible to ski to Verbier in less than an hour, taking in the spectacular glacier at Mont Fort along the way. For those interested in alternative snow pursuits there are specific runs for snowboarding, and also routes for snow shoe treks. As you would expect the town offers a full range of facilities for ski/snow board hire, lessons and ski-locker facilities.

Special interest holidays
Summer in the Alps is fantastic for anyone who enjoys walking or cycling, offering you the chance to make your own way around the 300km of well-signposted paths and trails. For the younger holidaymaker there is plenty do as well. Various activities are organized throughout the summer for children aged four and over, with two different age-group ranges varying the scope of what is available. For the 4-8 yr olds the focus is on theme days and activities such as donkey riding. For the older children and for adults more active pursuits such as archery, mountain bike tours, football and tennis are all available.
