Schöne Wohnung, mit guter Ausstattung und Lage direkt an der Piste. GerĂ€umige KĂŒche und schönes Wohnzimmer. W-Lan wĂ€re nicht schlecht, sonst alles gut.
Lovely little apartment with all that you need for a peaceful summer break. Great views over the mountains and within easy walking reach of the beautiful town. Had always rated Villars sur Ollon in the Swiss alps as my favourite summer location but this is my new fave (although not cheap - blame the exchange rate). Only issue is that to get anywhere you need a decent amount of time to get 'out'. However in terms of away from it all, but within easy reach of Annecy couldn't fault it.
We had a lovely stay at the chalet it is situated directly on the bottom of L'Envers blue run and it is great fun to ski in and ski out.
The chalet itself is a little difficult to find especially when arriving in the dark during a snow storm. It is actually number 1480 but we were not given this number by the agents Association des meubles. However Association de Meubles were excellent in every other respect and replied to every email as did the owner and even offered to give us the code to the letter box if we were unable to arrive before 7PM to retrieve the keys.
We were actually planning to eat out every night but having discovered the excellent kitchen facilities we decided to cook some meals in the apartment .
It is about 1Km to the village centre by road(20 mins) which is how we walked down the first evening however when in Rome do as the Romans do and simply walk down the blue run and it is less than 10 minutes.
La Clusaz is a lovely French style resort and the village centre is very attractive. There are loads of restaurants to choose from and a number of bars. The people were all very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.
The skiing itself is good for beginners/intermediates as in the Manigod area and has some more challenging terrain the other side in La Balme and with the Aravis pass you can the bus to Le Grand Bornand and ski there also. The bus stop is basically at the bottom of the blue run.
Are favourite location on the Mountain was called Snack Bar. This is situated just before the L'Envers run which takes you home. This was very reasonably priced, excellent food and the people running it were great. A great place for a beer to finish the day also.
We will definitely return..
