Chalet Founets Avals
Features
It’s understandable. Built in mellow wood and unmistakeably
Savoyard-style, it has a quaint ambience that makes guests feel they are
in the lap of luxury. From the abundance of wooden beams and beautiful
log fire in the open plan living and dining room to the feather pillows
and duvets in the bedrooms, the chalet oozes warmth and character.
A large antique tapestry adorns a wall in the living room, and the
homely feel is added to by traditional Savoyard frescoes. A balcony with
comfy loungers leads off the living room, perfect for catching the
afternoon sun, crisp mountain air and breathtaking views.
An extra touch of luxury comes in the shape of a sauna – perfect after skiing.
The location is ideal too. Founets Aval is opposite the pisteside
restaurant of La Bergerie and just steps from the Bellecote run, which
leads down to the centre of Courchevel 1850 at La Croisette.
The proximity of the slopes means you don’t need to feel guilty about
lingering over an indulgent cooked breakfast – you’ll still be able to
get out skiing before many others in the resort. And besides, with the
vast and utterly fabulous network of runs making up the Three Valleys to
tackle, you’ll need to be properly fuelled with energy.
Sleeping up to eight, thechalet has four bedrooms all with ensuite
bathrooms. There is also a snug, with a plasma television, on the
mezzanine floor – great as a retreat for children. In fact, the chalet
is perfect for families, and has a very intimate feel.
Our staff can tailor meals to children’s tastes, and organise
early suppers for them if required and nannies too so parents can enjoy a
night out on the town after dinner.
Courchevel 1850 Resort Info
The most expensive resort in the French Alps'? Only partially true. Sat next to Val Thorens and Méribel, Courchevel is the most easterly of the Trois Vallées (the ski maps are back to front!) It is made up of four separate parts, each with their own character.
The biggest village and arguably the jewel in Courchevel's crown, 1850 is the focal point of the resort, with a good selection of world-class hotels, restaurants and shopping. There are a good selection of less expensive accommodation options in town, especially with several British run chalet hotels. Lift access to the whole 3 Valleys area is from the centre of town, giving easy access to almost all guests.
