Stunning French Alpine Chalet with spectacular views across the Abondance Valley

Maison du Bûcheron is a beautiful, spacious chalet located in the French Alps. Accomodating 10-12 people we have plenty of outdoor space for relaxing and great access to the area's winter sports resorts. For the rest of the year it is perfectly located for mountain walking, cycling (with secure storage) and Lake Geneva for water-based sports.
The house is a traditional barn-conversion with generous modern kitchen and dining facilities, 3 en-suite bedrooms and a large lounge for relaxing in.
We are easily connected from Geneva Airport - only 60km/37miles and close to the ski resorts of Chatel and Morzine, the spa town of Evians-les-Bains.
Enjoy a Barbeque on our deck or simple al-fresco dining. On-site catering by our host is also available for those that would like it! PLEASE NOTE THERE IS A MINIMUM STAY OF 7 NIGHTS OVER THE CHRISTMAS, NEW YEAR & DURING THE PEAK FEBRUARY HOLIDAYS
