Chalet Yves
Features
A former farm building, Chalet Yves has been sympathetically restored by the
owner, using local timbers and stone. This simple and rustic traditional mountain chalet has
an open fire which gives a warm and homely feel to the property. Situated on the peaceful
hillside below our Chalet Cicero, Yves has possibly the most stunning views of Mont Blanc
and the valley below and everything you would expect from a traditional French mountain
chalet. NB. Snow boots and easy-to-carry bags are strongly recommended as the steep path
to the chalet is often snowy.
Ground floor: Room 1 = triple (bunk beds and a single bed)
Room 2 = twin. Room 3 = double (double base with 2 mattresses) • bathroom • separate WC
First floor: • open-plan living/dining/kitchen area with open fire • terrace
Discounts per person per night: Room 1 deduct £2 pp/pn (if full)
Chalet staff live out.
Location: Arc 1800. Set on a hillside, with beautiful views, Chalet Yves is an attractive,
traditional chalet. It is 430 metres (approx.) and a short ski from the Chantel chairlift in Arc
1800. Alternatively, a free ski bus stops approximately 200 metres uphill from the chalet. For
nightlife, the centre of Arc 1800 is an 8 -10 minute walk (700 metres approx.) down the road.
Les Arcs Resort Info
Les Arcs skiing
Lift linked with La Plagne to create the "paradiski" area, Les Arcs offers something for everyone and plenty of it. Beginners and intermediates can revel in the fact that over 50% of pistes are graded red and blue, whilst advanced skiers can get their teeth into challenging blacks and off piste. Boarders and freestyle skiers won't be left out either with an enviable snow park, half pipe and boarder cross. The Les Arcs lift system is also one of the best, with few queues except at rush hour.
Les Arcs ski resort
Les Arcs is made up of three modern 'villages', with Arc 1800 being the biggest and most popular. Whilst off-snow activities are somewhat lacking in Les Arcs, families will love the traffic-free streets and excellent children's facilities. Arc 1950 is a new village created by the North American developer Intrawest. Located just below the Aiguille Rouge with spectacular views of Mont Blanc, Arc 1950 is fully self-contained, with its own shops, restaurants, bars, ski school, equipment shops, thermal spa, swimming pools and underground parking.

Snow Overview - France (snow news updated 07-Dec-2013)
There is great skiing available at the open resorts in France, including Bareges/La Mongie (85/150cm), Cauterets (80/120cm), Font Romeu (120/150cm), La Rosiere (50/105cm), Les Deux Alpes (40/160cm), Montgenevre (40/60cm), Tignes (44/170cm), Val d’Isere (43/86cm) and Val Thorens (65/105cm). It has been relatively mild at times this week but the temperature has dropped again now. The forecast is for bright, sunny weather across this weekend and into next week.
The big news in France is that many resorts will open for snowsports this weekend – either for weekend skiing or for the season fully.
Alpe d’Huez (22/150cm) is scheduled to open for the season on Friday 6th December.
Isola 2000 (55cm/60cm) was open for a pre-opening ski on Sunday 1st December but will open for the season daily from 7th December.
Meribel (30/105cm), Les Menuires (43/85cm) and Courchevel (45/105cm) in the Three Valleys ski area, as well as Chamrousse (15/25cm) and Les Orres (30/50cm), will open for the winter season on Saturday 7th December.
Grands Montets, at Argentiere (20/150cm) in the Chamonix valley (10/150cm) will open this Saturday 7th December. Les Houches, also in the Chamonix area will open for weekend skiing on 7th and 8th December.
Chatel (30/65cm) and Avoriaz (30/60cm) in the Portes du Soleil and Flaine (18/80cm) in the Grande Massif ski area, along with Foux d’Allos (32/45cm) and Villard de Lans (50/70cm), will open for weekend skiing on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th December, before opening for the season fully on Saturday 14th December.
Les Saisies (25/45cm) will open for weekend skiing in 7/8th December and 14/15th December before opening for the season fully on 19th December.
European Weather Outlook
The weather over the weekend and into next weekend is forecast to remain sunny for the majority of European skiing destinations. The good news is that mid-mountain temperatures should remain around freezing over the weekend, although it is set to get mild again next week.
Strong winds have affected the Scottish resorts this week, with some damage reported at Nevis Range. Some fresh snow could land over the weekend.
Fresh snow has already been reported in Norway and Sweden too, and more snow could land over the weekend.
