About this property

The mountains without the crowds - Cosy chalet with view in the Alps (Maurienne)

Warm Alpine chalet, with unobstructed views of the mountains and the Maurienne valley, sunny terrace, and a cozy atmosphere.

Ideal for a peaceful vacation, with family or friends, and close to the Saint-François Longchamp ski area (together with Valmorel, the resort forms the Grand Domaine with 165 km of slopes - ski area between 1450 m and 2550 m in altitude). Access to Saint-François by car takes less than 15 minutes.

An authentic place to share, relax, and experience the mountains differently, whether in summer or winter, after an intense day of skiing, an alpine hike in summer, or a cycling trip through the surrounding hors-category passes.

The entire chalet is reserved for your stay, accommodating up to 9 people, with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large living room with a fireplace, a dining room, and a fully equipped kitchen for a proper holiday. The chalet has a surface area of 120mÂČ over 3 levels.

The house is perched in the middle of a wooded 3,000 mÂČ garden with a south-facing balcony. You will enjoy the mountains without the crowds in this location, situated against a mid-mountain Savoyard hamlet that has retained its charm and pastures for dairy cows, which produce Beaufort and Tomme de Savoie cheeses in the valley's dairies.

The road along the property leads directly to Saint-François-Longchamp in 15 minutes by car; in 10 minutes, it takes you to the Grand Coin – Col du Chaussy area (cross-country skiing) or, further down, to the Maurienne Valley (shops and supermarkets in La Chambre).

For cyclists, in summer, you can directly enjoy the 15 km climb up to Col de la Madeleine (Hors Catégorie pass, 2,000 m, a classic Tour de France climb).

A car is necessary on site, but shuttles are available to the Saint-François resort or to Saint-Avre La Chambre train station.

séjour au calme

trÚs bon accueil de Pierre, bonnes communications avec lui. Le chalet est bien placé au calme, à une quinzaine de minutes de la station, ce qui est raisonnable à moins qu'il y ait de la neige sur la route!! Chalet trÚs confortable, beaucoup de matériel tant en cuisine qu'en terme de loisirs, beaucoup de jeux, super!

Séjour à Maison Puges

Nous avons mes enfants et moi adorĂ© l ambiance chalet de famille. SĂ©jour repos , dĂ©couvertes et randos avec baignade au lac des HurtiĂšres, Ă  20 min en voiture du chalet.. trĂšs apprĂ©ciĂ© durant ces jours de canicule ! Pierre est un hĂŽte trĂšs bienveillant et rĂ©actif avec qui on peut facilement Ă©changer.. MalgrĂ© des soucis de voiture qui n a pas trop apprĂ©ciĂ© la forte chaleur et les cols, ce sĂ©jour reste un excellent moment pour mes enfants et moi-mĂȘme... j'espĂšre revenir en Savoie et voir des marmottes cette fois-ci 😉

About the host

Hosted by Pierre HAMELIN

Host profile image
Le chalet est un chalet familial en bois de modĂšle savoyard.
Mes parents l’ont fait construire dans les annĂ©es 1960 pour y passer nos vacances d’hiver et d’étĂ©.
TrÚs vite nous y avons été rejoints par les proches et les amis.
Il est situé dans un petit hameau entre la vallée et Saint-François-Longchamp qui a gardé son authenticité.
Aujourd’hui, j’ai le plaisir de faire profiter nos hĂŽtes des sites pittoresques, insolites et de dĂ©tente de cette rĂ©gion savoyarde, en plus des traditionnelles activitĂ©s de ski hivernales de Saint-François-Longchamp.
N’hĂ©sitez pas Ă  me faire parvenir vos questions ou remarques avant ou pendant votre venue, afin de faciliter au mieux votre sĂ©jour.

Why they chose this property

Le chalet familial offre une vue panoramique et dĂ©gagĂ©e sur le massif de Belledonne, les aiguilles d’Arve et la vallĂ©e de la Maurienne.
Il est localisĂ© dans un hameau tranquille de moyenne montagne (800 m d’altitude) qui a gardĂ© son authenticitĂ©. Vous pourrez y profiter du repos au calme aprĂšs de belles excursions ou sorties Ă  ski dans la journĂ©e.
Il est situé proche de la station de ski (15 min) comme des commerces de la vallée (10 min).
Le hameau possĂšde encore son four Ă  pain ; on y cĂ©lĂšbre chaque annĂ©e la fĂȘte des voisins,
Dans les prés qui environnent, des vaches y pùturent, dont le lait est livré à la fruitiÚre de La Chambre (production de beaufort et de tomme de Savoie).

What makes this property unique

Le chalet est de construction en bois et localisĂ© au milieu d’un jardin de 3000 m2 peuplĂ© de sapins et de bouleaux.
Le chalet entier vous est réservé pour passer un moment exclusif en famille ou entre amis et comprend 9 couchages, 4 chambres et 2 salles de bains.
Au centre de la piÚce à vivre de 20 m2 se trouve une cheminée traditionnelle pour de belles flambées. Cette piÚce jouxte la salle à manger qui peut accueillir 9 convives.
DÚs que le temps le permet, vous pourrez profiter de moments de détente ou de repas sur le balcon orienté vers la chaleur des rayons du Sud.
La cuisine est entiÚrement équipée pour la préparation de repas conviviaux, dont les traditionnels plats savoyards fondue et raclette.
Le confort d’usage est facilitĂ© par la prĂ©sence d’un lave-vaisselle, d’un lave-linge, d’un four, d’un micro-ondes, de diffĂ©rentes machines Ă  cafĂ© (dont Nespresso).
L’accĂšs Wifi est illimitĂ©.
