Chalet Morion - Luxury chalet for winter or summer
Chalet with 4 Bedrooms, Sleeps 10
Ste Foy is a true French Alpine village in the Tarentaise Valley in the heart of the Alps. Near to the mega ski resorts of Val d'Isère, Tignes, Les Arcs & La Plagne, in winter Ste Foy is a 'secret off-piste haven for those in the know' (Where to Ski and Snowboard 2006). It has built a deserved reputation as the best kept secret in the Alps. In summer it becomes a retreat for walkers and mountain bikers.
In our seventh season of operation, the chalet can sleep 8 to 10 people. It's location is tranquil with panoramic views, yet remains convenient for all amenities.
Just 100m from the main lift station, Chalet Morion and Apartment Morion have a panoramic view of the spectacular Tarentaise Valley and the surrounding mountains. Built to the highest specifications, chalet and apartment are available to hire year round.
The property consists of a four double-bedroom chalet on the two upper floors (property ref: 2239) and a two double-bedroom apartment on the lower floor (property ref: 2240). The chalet and apartment have separate entrances and are available for renting on a self-catering basis, either separately or jointly.
Details for the chalet:(For apartment details please go to Property ref 2240). There are four bedrooms, two are doubles and two have twin beds which can be arranged as doubles or twins. There is also the option of a double sofa bed in the lounge area. The two double bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms plus there is a separate bathroom with bath and shower over and a further separate toilet downstairs.

There is a small, friendly ski school with excellent English speaking instructors. The cost of a lift pass is around half of the cost of the neighbouring large resorts. For the 2006/2007 season it is just 121 Euros (around UK£82) for 6 days, and includes reduced price days in the nearby resorts of Val d'Isére, Tignes (20 mins), Les Arcs, via Villaroger (10 mins), La Plagne and La Rosière.
This is a very suitable base for a holiday with children, with nursery slopes and magic carpet lifts for complete beginners - just 50m from the chalet - and some gentle green and blue runs. Ski passes for the under sevens are free. There are two creches which link up with the ski school. For non-skiers there are facilities for cross-country skiing, snow-shoeing, dog sledding, tobogganing, ice climbing and parapenting nearby. Or just relax on the chalet's south and west facing terrace.
Summer: At a height of 1550m the chalet makes a great base for summer stays being surrounded by the Vanoise and Grand Paradis National parks with stunning scenery and 70kms of paths to satisfy all abilities. Walk above the chalet through larch forests, alpine meadows, historic villages and numerous mountain lakes.
Locally the mountain biking is superb and Les Arcs has world class competition descents, running its skilifts for bikers through the summer. Road biking is popular with numerous famous climbs nearby such as the Cormet de Roseland and Col de l'Iseran. Sports available locally include rafting, canoeing, tennis, fishing, horse-riding and climbing amongst others.

Guestbook
"'Just wanted to say thanks for the use of your chalet. The whole group loved it, especially the open fire place and the great views! It was also very close to all the amenities which was great! We all enjoyed the pistes on Sainte Foy too. We had great snow and loved the fact that the slopes where so empty. I will certainly recommend Sainte Foy and your chalet to any of my friends who are looking for a change from the big resorts. " - J Purchas
"'Just got back late last night- had a cracking time, absolutely loved the chalet. Your photos on the website don't do justice to the interior! Best chalet holiday we ever took...'
" - A Whiston
"Just wanted to say a big thank you for the use of your chalet over New Year, we had the most fantastic time. We have been skiing for quite a few years now and been to lots of locations, but we think that we have finally found our ideal location in St Foy, everything was perfect, great snow, no queues and wonderful "safe" off-piste for our 11 year old son to enjoy. We had planned to spend a day at Tignes and Val d'Isere but enjoyed St Foy so much that we didn't find the time!
" - J Moffatt
"May I also take this opportunity in thanking you for the rental of the chalet as it was stunning and in a great location. A great time was had by all and we look forward to a return visit in the near future. Thanks again.' " - S Fox
"
I just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful holiday in Chalet Morion in Ste Foy. We loved the chalet and the village and managed to balance chilling out with lots of activities exactly as we had hoped. It was superbly equipped and I didn't want for anything either in the kitchen or elsewhere. So thank you very much and we are very glad to have discovered this lovely secret corner of the Alps.'
" - N Durdant-Hollamby
"
I wish to convey our thanks for the hire of the chalet. We had an amazing holiday. We had brilliant service from both Zig Zags [ski hire shop] and ESF. The location of the chalet was amazing and really was 50 metres from the piste." - A Smith
