About this property

Unusual Savoyard chalet, warmer than an apartment, 400 m away from the centre

Come live an unusual experience in a typical Savoyard chalet from 1877. The detached chalet offers all the comforts over 2 floors with 4 sleeping. It is ideally located and south facing, in a dead-end street 250 m away from the aerial lifts and just a 10-min walk away from the centre of the resort. You enjoy an exceptional panoramic view in a very calm area. There is a terrace. Parking is available on the ground, so you can safely park your car. Between Lake Geneva and the Mont Blanc mountain range, ski resort Châtel offers 130 km of slopes, ideally located in the heart of the fabulous ski area Portes du Soleil (650 km of slopes). You can also enjoy snow-shoeing walks, visits to the sky by paragliding and Fantasticable, relaxing in the swim paradise with 3 basins and a wellness area, or ice fishing, bowling, and so on.

Great little place!
It was very cute & within a ten minute walk to the the village. Located on a hillside has a fantastic view up the valley towards the ski area. It has wood interior & a decent kitchen with gas job, electric oven, fridge, toaster, kettle & coffee maker. Furnishings were pleasant and clean. Bed was comfy. It is two levels high, downstairs the kitchen, small tv, dining area and bathroom. There is a shower with a deluge shower head & unlimited red hot water. Great after a hard day skiing! Upstairs is a relaxing/sleeping area with a two seater sofa, double bed & two bunk beds & a larger tv. No English channels but a dvd player. It is touted for 4 people but only really suitable for two adults and two young children as the beds are all in the same room. I think it would be better without the bunk beds giving you more space as it is quite small but really great for 2 people. Upstairs is accessed by a very narrow wooden spiral staircase and would be no good for anyone with lower limb or mobility issues. There is a patio outside. It is on a quiet road with little traffic. I gave 4 stars as to access it you have to drive halfway down a muddy track and then walk the rest of way to the front door down a steep grassed/concrete stepped path. We had no snow there when we stayed but would be a bit treacherous with ice/snow again not good if u have mobility problems. Apart from that we loved it! The host was great with comms & instructions & always replied promptly to texts/emails. 👍

An experience that will never forget!
We were lucky enough to stay at this gorgeous Mezot for Christmas! Stunning views, short walk to the centre of the village, where you can find everything you might need for your stay ! The hosts were extremely kind and welcoming, which we are very grateful for! We will definitely go back as we truly fallen in love with this beautiful part of the world!

prix de location excessif pour un confort bien en dessous de ce que l'on pouvait attendre
Très petite surface , pas de lave linge, linge fourni au minima et de basse qualité . Un confort sommaire !A noter : un escalier très raide pour pouvoir aller aux toilettes la nuit.

Parfait pour 2 personnes
Les atouts de ce petit chalet sont l'emplacement et la très jolie vue sur Châtel et les montagnes environnantes. Attention, pour monter à la chambre, il faut emprunter un petit escalier étroit qui pourrait poser soucis à certaines personnes.

Traumhaftes kleines Häuschen
Das kleine Chalet liegt ein einer ruhigen, traumhaften Lage in Châtel. Das Haus ist klein, aber dafür sehr gemütlich und mit allem Wichtigen ausgestattet. Der Skibus fährt 50m vom Haus entfernt ab, das Zentrum von Châtel ist aber auch fußläufig gut zu erreichen. Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

super séjour
belle location, petit chalet typique, confortable avec une très belle vue !!!! Bien qu'au milieu de nombreux chalets plus grands, il n'y a pas de vis à vis, ce qui fait que nous nous sommes sentis seul au monde par moments. Le village n'est qu'à 10 mn de marche. Nous reviendrons certainement, la région est magnifique !! Merci Josianne !

Excellent séjour, plein de charme
Petit chalet, tout en bois, joliment décoré et cosy. Tout était parfait, à commencer par l'accueil des propriétaires, la propreté de la location et le fait qu'il soit très bien équipé. Il est situé à +/- 10-15 min du centre et de l'accès aux pistes de ski, ce qui permet pratiquement de tout faire à pied. Depuis le mazot, nous avons également profité d'une magnifique vue panoramique sur le village et avons eu la joie d'admirer de nombreux feux d'artifice la soirée du 31/12/2021. Merci pour tout!

Un pied à terre tout en charme entre lac et montagne
Une propreté irréprochable à l'arrivée dans ce gite, à la bonne taille pour 2 adultes et 2 enfants maximum. Tout y est fonctionnelle et décoré de manière très sympa, ce qui en fait un petit nid où on se sent bien. Le centre du village se trouve à un peu plus d'1 km, ce qui se fait très bien à pied. On y trouve toute les commodités. Idéal pour partir en ballade autour ou bien aller se baigner au lac Leman (la plage d'Excevenex se trouve à 1h en voiture) Et en prime des propriétaires très accueillant et agréables, bref tout pour plaire

Très bon accueil de Josiane, l'aménagement est parfait et avec un excellent cachet. Un grand espace extérieur privatif idéal pour de la luge ou des bonhommes de neige, super exposition (le soleil du matin est agreable) Le petit plus pour les enfants: surprendre les biches au réveil.

Un rêve de chalet
Le rêve de passer ses vacances d’hiver ou d’été dans un chalet savoyard, vous pouvez le réaliser dans le mazot de Josiane et Pascal. Ce petit chalet est typique de la région, bien situé, indépendant, confortable, avec une vue sublime de Châtel et sa vallée. Merci à Josiane et Pascal très chaleureux et disponibles.
