Chalet Arpitania

La Clusaz has a great selection of shops, bars and restaurants, as well as a weekly market where you can pick up some tasty local produce.

About the property ...

The spacious accommodation at Chalet Arpitania is set over three floors. The entrance at the back of the house will take you via the ski and bike room into a hall with plenty of storage space.

This opens up into the vast open plan living area - the luxury kitchen has everything you need to cook for a crowd, including a large fridge freezer and two ovens, and a freestanding island unit with a large hob and breakfast bar. There is room for everyone to eat together at the bespoke dining table, and the corner fireplace will add to the convivial atmosphere. There are sliding doors on to a wraparound terrace where you'll find another large dining table where you can eat out on sunny days.

The stylish seating area is at the front of the house - four comfortable sofas are arranged around another fireplace and television, and full-height windows frame the breathtaking view and fill the room with light. They also open on to a balcony which is the perfect place for drinks before dinner!

Take the stairs to the top floor, where you'll find two spacious bedroom suites, both of which have dressing areas, en suite bathrooms and separate WCs. Each has a large double bed opposite a full-height window which opens on to a balcony - what a glorious view to wake up to! All of the bedrooms have Nespresso coffee machines, so you won't even need to leave your room to get your first coffee of the day.

There are three more bedrooms on the ground floor, all of which have en suite shower rooms and open on to a terrace. One is a double room (although the bed can be set as 2 singles) and the others both sleep four people - each has a double bed (possibility of turning the double into 2 singles) and a set of bunk beds. There's also a useful laundry room on this floor, and a separate WC.

The ground floor is also home to the impressive spa area - there's a large indoor pool with a bar and seating area which opens on to a terrace, as well as a steam room and a sauna. It's the perfect space to spend a relaxing day with friends - there's even a pétanque court outside if you fancy a game!

Chalet Arpitania has a garage for two cars as well as two parking spaces and there's a charging point for electric cars.

About the area ...

Skiers and boarders will be spoilt for choice when they stay at Chalet Arpitania. The ski bus stop just 50m from the door, giving you access to the 220km of slopes in the La Clusaz, Le Grand Bornand and Le Croix Fry area. If you’d rather take the car, the Bossonnet parking and lift in La Clusaz is just 1.9km away.

There’s plenty to do for non-skiers too, with an ice-skating rink and cinema in La Clusaz, as well as sledging, snow-shoe walking, dog-sledding and sleigh rides.

In the summer, walks start right from your door - hike into Les Confins, where you will also find a nine-hole golf course and fishing lake, or let the telecabine ferry you and your bike into the mountains, so you can come back down at your own pace. The mountains around La Clusaz are criss-crossed with tracks and paths, so there is always somewhere new to discover. Other activities available in the area include horse-riding, climbing, via ferrata and paragliding.

If you just want to relax, why not soak up the sun on the terraces or balconies as you admire the mountain views, or take a dip in the pool at Chalet Arpitania? Later, fire up the barbecue and plan the next glorious day in the Aravis mountains as the sun sets over the mountains.

There is a great choice of shops, bars and restaurants in La Clusaz, and you can pick up fresh produce, at the weekly market. There are larger supermarkets a little further afield in Thônes. The ski bus links La Clusaz to Le Grand Bornand and Manigod, making it easy to get around.

The beautiful lakeside town of Annecy is just a 30-minute drive away, and is a great destination for a day out. With a great calendar of festivals and markets, there is always something going on. Lake Annecy is said to be the cleanest lake in Europe and in the summer it’s a lovely place for water sports, cycling and swimming. Why not hire a boat to explore the beaches, perhaps stopping at lakeside restaurant for lunch? Golfers will be keen to try one of the area’s superb courses or you could visit the chateau at Menthon St Bernard.
