Luxury south-facing chalet 5 minutes from ski slopes, 15 minutes from Chatel


Chalet Pelerin, surrounded by the Chablais mountains, is situated midway between Abondance and La Chapelle d'Abondance and just a few minutes from Chatel. The chalet is just 75 minutes from Geneva with easy access to the Portes du Soleil which, with 650km of pistes, incorporates 14 resorts including Chatel, Avoriaz, Torgon, Champery, Morgins, Morzine and Les Gets.

It is a great base for either a winter or summer holiday as a place to relax and enjoy beautiful scenery. Abondance/Chatel is a true dual season resort, with extensive skiing and boarding in the winter, and walking, climbing, mountain biking, paragliding, kayaking, rafting and fishing in the summer.

The chalet has been designed in typical Savoyard style over 3 floors, covering 170 sq.m., featuring a large open plan lounge and dining area including leather sofas and solid oak dining room furniture, a fully fitted oak kitchen and separate utility area and fully furnished south-facing terrace overlooking the valley and River Dranse directly below.

There are 6 beautifully appointed bedrooms, (3 doubles and 3 twins), sleeping up to 12 adults (plus a child in a travel cot) with 4 bathrooms including 3 en-suite.

All prices are based on full occupancy. Partial occupancy bookings and discounts are also available (other than for Christmas, New Year and February half term weeks) which vary according to party size. Discounts of between 30% and 40% are also available for booking 7 nights (other than those weeks where 7 nights is the minimum reservation). Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

There are no additional charges for cleaning, linen, towels, Wi-Fi or anything else.

Wonderful accommodation

Our new year friends snd family skiing holiday was made even more perfect by the wonderful accommodation, The chalet is perfect for large groups but also maintains a homely and cosy feel. Communication with Paul was effortless, who was a wonderful host. Location is great for the many surrounding ski areas and beautiful towns. Can’t recommend enough.

Great for winter skiing

A very well equipped and clean, modern, chalet located just off the main road between Abondance (3 mins drive) and La Chappelle (5 mins drive). Communication with the host was excellent - they were very friendly - and instructions, directions, etc, first class. They also recommend ski hire providers and offer to arrange lift passes for you. Towels & bed lined were included (and they also left us some sausage & a pasta bake as am added bonus!!). The chalet is comfortable for up to 8 adults but would be a tight squeeze for more than that (the dining table seats 8-10 & lounge area 7-8). If you're skiing you really need your own transport. The Linga lift is 15 mins drive & Pre La Joux 20 mins. Both have lots of free parking. The driveway to the chalet is steep and you'll need winter tyres or chains in snowy conditions (but you can park at the bottom of the drive if needed). There are no bars & restaurants close by but plenty within 5 mins drive. If you're okay with all that then it's an excellent place to stay for skiing.

Comfortable, warm and homely

A fantastic chalet - clean, warm, comfortable and very well- equipped to a high standard. The accommodation met our party’s needs perfectly - so nice for each of our 3 separate family groups to have their own space and bathroom facilities. Plenty of room for the 9 of us to enjoy a meal together around the dining table or an evening round the fire playing games. Contact with Paul was great. Several ski lifts an easy drive away. The only thing we missed was a bar or restaurant within walking distance of the property hence 4 star rating overall. Thank you Chalet Pellerin ! We would definitely visit again .

The accommodation was clean and tidy on arrival. The sledges in the garage were enjoyed by the boys. There is plenty of utensils in the kitchen and plenty dining ware. We found the location of the chalet very useful for skiing resorts. All the information about where all the activities are located was very useful. Overall very pleased and think we will return in the future.

Awesome chalet, first class.

Second year of staying here. Excellent communication from Paul leading up to our arrival. Once here, the owners have thought of everything you might need for a party of 12. 6 decent bedrooms, 3 double with en-suite bathrooms & 3 twin with an extra bathroom. Well equipped kitchen, plenty of pots, pans & crockery. The only thing missing is a hot tub! Maybe next year?! Skis & passes can be pre-booked, for delivery directly to the chalet. You really need a car to get to the ski lifts but once there, it gives you access to the huge Porte du Soleil region. So good we’ve already booked to go back next year.

Amazing chalet!

A party of 6 adults & 6 kids stayed here over half term. Fabulous chalet. Plenty of good skiing available either 5 minutes down the road, or up to half an hour drive away, all with free parking. We all agreed that the kitchen is the best stocked we have ever had, the only thing missing was a garlic press! Lots of crockery & cutlery, & plenty of pans, including several big ones which are the ones we usually miss the most. The beds were all comfortable, with good quality bedding & towels. The chalet was clean & tidy when we arrived, & the information sent by the hosts was very comprehensive, including the most detailed driving instructions ever & even where to stop at a supermarket on our way there. The only thing that would have made it truly perfect would have been a hot tub - for next year please?!

Week-end entre amis.

Séjour très agréable dans ce grand chalet familial au cœur de la région. Ponctué de balades et de découvertes. Le chalet est très bien organisé. Nous étions trois familles à deux enfants chacune et tous avons eu notre espace. L'équipement complet pour passer un très bon moment. Le temps maussade nous a fait faire une petite flambée dans le poêle et rien ne manquait. Peut-être, une hache plus petite pour réaliser le petit bois serait plus appropriée, mais sinon parfait. Le contact avec les propriétaires, exclusivement par courrier électronique, fut toujours très cordial et plein de bienveillance. Nous recommandons chaleureusement cette location.

Le chalet dispose de toutes les comodites possible. Nous l’avons trouvé dans un bon état de propreté. Au mur de nombreux posters de films qui donne, en plus, l’accès à la mémoire des nombreux films exposés. La seule petite remarque, pas bien grave mais gênante concerne la salle de bain du 1er étage (surtout l’accès à la cabine de douche par trop exiguë) en dehors de cela, je recommande vivement cette location.
