Overview
With stunning views of the Women's Olympic Downhill run from a large south-west facing balcony, it has lots of space with all bedrooms being a good size and benefiting from en suite bathrooms. The living room has a wonderful open fireplace and doors leading to a wonderful large terrace on which to enjoy an apres-ski glass of wine or well-earned afternoon tea.
Description
The Chaudanne lift stations in Meribel and ski school meeting points are only 10 minutes walk from the chalet or a short bus ride away. The main square with its bars, shops and restaurants is literally a few minutes walk.
All in all, the Eleanor provides a superb opportunity for larger groups of friends or perhaps 2-3 families to combine and make the most of not only space the chalet provides, but also the superb access to the centre of Meribel, something which is often hard to find with a property of this size.
Chalet Eleanor will be superbly run by two of our chalet hosts (likely a couple) who live out but nearby.

About Méribel
Méribel ski area
Known as the Heart of the Three Valleys, Méribel was founded by Peter Lindsay, a Scot, who developed the first commercial ski resort on the site occupied today. It has grown over the years to become one of the most popular resorts in the Alps with UK skiers. It's not difficult to see why!
Méribel is superbly located for quick access to all corners of the Three Valleys, itself the biggest linked ski area in Europe with over 600km of piste. Méribel provides the perfect combination of challenges for advanced skiers and cruising for beginners and intermediates. Put simply, there is no better ski area anywhere in the world than the Three Valleys and Méribel is slap bang in the middle of it all!
Méribel ski resort
Méribel Centre is the main hub of the resort, where you'll find an extensive choice of accommodation, shops, restaurants and one of the biggest and wildest apres ski and nightlife scenes in the Alps. From the legendary Rond Point (Ronnie) and Folie Douce to get the party started on the slopes before dinner, right through to O'Sullivan's which stays open almost until breakfast time... Méribel has been developed sympathetically over time, the result of which is an aesthetically pleasing resort of attractive wooden chalets.
Further up the valley is Méribel-Mottaret, which offers ultimate ski convenience as virtually every accommodation is slopeside. However don't expect to be able to party in Méribel Centre if you're staying up in Mottaret. Not quite as easy on the eye as Meribel but price and location are the main attractions for staying in Mottaret.
Méribel Village is a charming satellite village about a kilometre outside of Méribel on the road to La Tania. With a piste running down to the village and its own chairlift, plus a bus service that makes the nightlife in Méribel accessible, Village is another great value option for Méribel
