About this property

Traditional Ski Chalet with Stunning Views

  • L'Abri du Giffre is situated in the hamlet of Le Brairet, 1.5 km north of Sixt Fer à Cheval. Access to local skiing is 1.5km from the chalet and access to the whole of the Grand Massif, which includes Samoens 1600, Les Carroz, Flaine, Morillon and Sixt; via a free ski bus from the village or a ten minute drive to the gondola at Samoens, where there is plenty of parking.
    Sixt village has ski hire, a bakery, a mini supermarket, restaurants and bars.
    The chalet has five bedrooms on three floors - three double rooms, one with an additional single bed, one triple bedded room and one small double bedded room. Two contemporary bathrooms, a large lounge with wood burning stove, an open plan dining area, fully equipped modern kitchen, a mezzanine area and balcony with stunning views of the Alps. There is a large utility area with washing machine and storage for skis and boots. We have a selection of bikes for our guests use.
    The chalet has a garden to the rear of the property which backs out onto fields. There is a patio at the front of the property which benefits from lovely morning sun, so an ideal place to eat breakfast looking out at the sunning mountain views.
    The national park of Cirque Fer du à Cheval is at the end of the road. You can access this beautiful area from the chalet, with miles of fantastic walking. In the cirque you can horse ride, mountain climb and ice climb. There is white water rafting and access to the Via ferrata from the village.
    The ski du fond starts in the national park and the tracks pass at the back of the chalet. A chalet for all seasons.
    The town of Samoens is 5km away with an abundance of restaurants, bars, supermarkets, swimming pool and leisure activities. The village of Morillon has a swimming lake only 10 minutes away.
    Included in the rental price is bedlinen and towels. We provide our guests with logs for the wood burning stove, which heats the whole chalet.
    There is a barbecue for our guests use on beautiful summer evenings.
    The chalet has a television that can play DVD’s, it is not connected to French television or the internet. However we do supply an HDIM cable to enable guests to stream TV through a lap top.
