This beautiful three-storey traditional 5 star chalet is on the sunny south-facing side of the Manigod valley, 3 km from the ski slopes of La Croix Fry, near the charming village of Manigod. The mountainside falls away steeply in front of the chalet, giving stunning panoramic views across the Aravis mountains to Tournette.

There's large flat garden to the sides and back, making it ideal for games, catching the sun or eating al fresco. The spacious covered and furnished terrace on the west side of the chalet is the perfect place to enjoy the great outdoors all year round. A bakery and restaurant (which also offers takeaway food) can be found just a few minutes away in the charming village of Manigod, and there are more restaurants in Merdassier, although these may be closed out of season.

The road is regularly cleared of snow, and the ski bus stops nearby and connects Manigod with the La Clusaz and Le Grand Bornand areas.
As soon as you step inside La Grange à L'Ours, you will realise that it is a much-loved family home. A mixture of antique and modern furniture make for a relaxed atmosphere, and the open-plan living area with its cosy sofas around the fire is the perfect place to enjoy an evening with friends.

There is a sunny south-facing balcony which overlooks the valley and the dining area has doors on to the covered terrace, so you can eat inside or out.

Cooking up a Savoyard feast is a pleasure in the brand new kitchen (perfectly equipped, even with a Nespresso coffee machine), which has another dining table for informal meals. There is a double bedroom on this floor, with an en suite bath and shower room.

On the ground floor there is the garage, home cinema, shower room, laundry and useful storage. There is also a boot room with heaters for 10 pairs of ski boots and hanging space for ski clothes.

There are three more double bedrooms (two with ensuite shower room and one with an additional single bed) and a twin room on the top floor. Two of these bedrooms have access to a balcony.

ABOUT THE AREA
La Grange à L'Ours couldn’t be better placed to enjoy everything the La Clusaz area has to offer. You’re just a five-minute drive from the pistes at Croix Fry (altitude 1500m). Here novice skiers can learn the basics with an ESF instructor, while the more experienced will enjoy the 220km of pistes that link the area to La Clusaz and Le Grand Bornand.

Parking at the pistes is free, but if you’d rather leave the car at home, the ski bus stops just 50m from the chalet and will have you on the slopes in no time.

Cross-country skiers will find plenty of trails to choose from, and non-skiers are not forgotten either, with a heated indoor/outdoor swimming pool, ice skating rink and cinema, as well as sledging, snow-shoe walking, dog-sledding and sleigh rides all just a short drive away.

In the summer, you can fill your days with activities or take it easy - you’ll be spoiled for choice in the Aravis region. There’s no shortage of walks, from mountain trails to hiking on the Gliéres plateau.

If road or mountain biking is more your style, the chalet overlooks the route of the Tour de France when it passes through Manigod on the way to La Clusaz. In summer some of the ski lifts become bike lifts - take the easy wway up and come down at your own pace.

Adrenalin junkies can try paragliding, canyoning, climbing, or white-water rafting - just some of the many activities on offer within a few miles of Manigod.

Lake Annecy is only 30 minutes away and offers lots of watersports including waterskiing, wake-boarding, sailing, and diving. If this all sounds too energetic, why not just take a cruise, or hire a boat and find yourself a quiet lakeside beach? Whatever you do, you’re sure to have a holiday you won’t forget.

NOTE: Free wifi. Cleaning, linen and towels included!
