4 Bedroom Ski Chalet in Vallorcine

Our chalet (La Taniere or the Bears' Den), is a beautiful converted barn, comfortably sleeping eight to ten people. It is spacious enough if you want your own space, or want to socialise in the open plan living area. Each one of the four double bedrooms has an ensuite bathroom with a shower and toilet and the master bedroom has a nice big double sized bathtub. We also provide two mattresses to sleep two additional people. Please bear in mind these are not additional beds but good quality mattresses. The kitchen is fully equipped and even includes a fondue and a raclette set. All your linen is included in your rental.
We have two terraces, one at the back looking into the green or white snow and the front terrace with a huge table and benches. Peaceful places to sit and enjoy your surroundings or gaze at the stars at night.
Vallorcine is a tranquil location, with direct access to the busier Chamonix Valley by car or train. You have direct access to the beautiful skiing area of Tete de Balme / Le Tour and to the little skiing area of La Poya at the other end of Vallorcine. The télécabine to Balme is open in summer and winter. There are lots of opportunities for beautiful on-piste or off-piste skiing, ski mountaineering, Nordic skiing and snowshoeing in winter. In summer the area offers lots of beautiful walks and hikes, mountain biking, rock-climbing and just enjoying the beautiful surroundings.
From the chalet it is 4 minutes walk to the télécabine and the ski school. Beginners usually go to the La Poya area with a little shuttle which takes the children to and from la Poya for their lessons in just a few minutes drive. La Poya is a great little ski area with different runs ranging from blue to black. It is also just one station away by train. The télécabine takes you to the Balme / Le Tour ski area with lots of wide open blue and red slopes and one black slope as well as amazing off-piste skiing opportunities. If there is enough snow you can ski down to the chalet through the Forêt Verte.
The train station is 2 mins walk connecting to Chamonix and Switzerland. You can take a train to Les Praz, which is just a few minutes walk to the Flegere Telecabine to get you to the Flegere and Brevent skiing areas. Or you can go to Argentiere to reach the Grands Montets skiing area.
If you fancy eating out, the famous Café Comptoir is very close and there will be a new restaurant opening up at the station shortly. In addition you have a few restaurants close to la Poya ski are in Le Buet part of Vallorcine.
Whether you want cheese from the local farm, freshly baked bread or provisions for a day out, or a bottle of wine, these can be had a short walk away. In the summer, Vallorcine has a weekly market where you can buy locally grown vegetables.
The chalet is ideally situated as a rest stop close to the Tour du Mont-Blanc (TMB) or as base, next to the Vallorcine Aid Station, if watching or participating in the Ultra-Trail Mount Blanc (UTMB).

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at Annette and Sven's lovely home. We went during off season so many things in the immediate area were closed, but it ended up being the perfect Covid get away. We were able to go on multiple hikes right from the house and there were many more that we didn't get to. We also were able to see the Emosson Dam, take the cable car to Midi and the train to see the glacier at Montenvers. Annette and Sven assisted us with many questions and things to do. They could not have been more helpful or welcoming. The train is literally steps from the house and it was easy to make our way to Chamonix. Thank you for sharing your home with our family, we had a wonderful time! We hope to visit again sometime!

Summary: Such a nice and spacious house located on the foot of the mountain just were the slope ends and village starts. The house has everything you need for a perfect ski holiday. We even got to borrow sledges from Annette and Sven! Annette and the manager Rachida were so easy to communicate with and kept us updated with all necessary information regarding snowfall, road closure etc. I even got to borrow Annettes’ winter boots since I forgot mine at home! Unfortunately we left the house with some small damages from our kids but Annette were very understanding. We hope to see you again one day!

Summary: We had a lovely time in this beautiful, very well-sized, home. We really felt like we were in our own home. It was extremely well stocked and the location was superb for the local ski area. Being able to ski back to pretty much your back door was a nice perk. We had a very nice (and surprisingly quiet, especially on new year's eve) restaurant across the road which serves super food. Our hosts, Annette and Sven, were extremely understanding and kind about some damage my youngest child caused and were very pleasant and kind to deal with. We will definitely go back!

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay in Sven and Annette's home. It suited our grown up family perfectly - beautiful scenery, lovely family meals - croissants for breakfast - what more could one ask for. We will hopefully be back!

Summary: The chalet is very spacious and well-equipped. It’s been a perfect place for us, our grown-up children and friends. The fireplace with plenty of wood and comfortable sofas has been a warm hearth for some great family bonding. The spring skiing has been great too with some of the best off-piste skiing conveniently off the tete de Balme chair. Vallorcine is a quaint and unspoilt village but has most services needed. However we made full use of the free tickets on the Mont Blanc express to ride to and from Argentiere and Chamonix too. Another highlight was the new spa (QC Terme) in Chamonix. This is a fantastic experience to sooth those aching ski muscles! We will be sad to leave Annette and Sven’s place, its been ideal!

Summary: La Taniere is a lovely chalet - spacious, atmospheric and full of rustic charm. It is very cosy even although the centre of the communal space is double height. (plenty of logs provided a welcome fire) The chalet is well appointed. We loved the quality bed linen and fluffy towels. There was plenty of equipment, pots and pans etc for us keen cooks. The sociable open plan layout worked well for us. As a party of both skiers and walkers we found the chalet very well situated for both. The Vallorcine Telecabine and Railway Station are only a few minutes away and we used both to access the various ski areas and also took the Mont Blanc Express along the scenic route to Martigny on the day we left - it was stunning. One of the highlights of our holiday was the excellent meal at Cafe Comptoir - the very attractive and friendly restaurant just across the road. We had a very successful holiday and were very grateful to be able to store our luggage in the garage both on the day we arrived (early) and the day we left (late), allowing us to make the most of our time in Vallorcine.
