We had a fantastic stay at this chalet and couldn’t have asked for more. The host was very welcoming and helpful, making everything feel easy and relaxed from the moment we arrived. The chalet itself is beautiful, warm and extremely comfortable, with stunning views over the Samoëns valley.We especially loved the peaceful atmosphere and the log fire, which made evenings incredibly cosy after busy days exploring the area. Everything was well maintained and thoughtfully equipped, making it a perfect family escape.A truly memorable stay and somewhere we would happily return to and recommend to others.

This property is located in the heart of the French Alps and has a country feel even though it is only minutes from town. If you enjoy quiet and comfort this is an awesome chalet. We also did one hour day trips to Annecy, Yvoire, and Chamonix. Thank you for sharing your home!

Great view, and a great place to relax

We had a lovely summer holiday here. If you want privacy, lovely views (Mont Blanc!!), and a great house for relaxing, walks, and nice quiet evenings, than this is the place to be! The owners were very friendly, and they send us good information about the house, the villages, and some walks. We highly recommend this lovely house for a summer stay!

Stunning views

Lovely homely chalet with absolutely amazing views. Very well equipped. Great walks nearby. Few things a bit dated but the chalet has a lovely warm feel to it. The host was very helpful, answering our queries quickly and clearly had fantastic knowledge of the local area. Please note the hot tub is wood fired so takes a long time to warm up, so you do need to be around all day to get it warmed up which for us wasn't practical as we spent our days out exploring,

5 stars!!!!

Chalet le Moulin exceeded our expectations. The views are simply amazing and ever changing with the weather. The chalet is huge and beautifully presented. Everywhere you look there is something quirky that catches your eye. We cooked at the chalet every night and there is all the kitchen equipment you would ever need. The WIFI is super fast and my boys enjoyed the big TV on the mezzanine. The skiing both at Sommand and Praz de lys is perfect for my beginners but there is plenty of interesting stuff for those who need more of a challenge. We would love to stay again!!!

Lovely location during summer/winter

We had a lovely time in the chalet even without any snow. The size was great for a 8 person party and the view from the balcony incredible. Some upgrades to the appliances are necessary, the dishwasher was broken, sink clogged and not enough glasses/plates so we had to do a lot of hand washing. Also the floors were creaking a lot(I know an old chalet) so difficult to sleep if anyone wanted to go ul and down the stairs. Overall a good experience

Hi Lavinia, Glad you had a lovely time. Sorry about lack of snow in the Alps this year and for the Miele dishwasher - it won't work when kitchen sink gets blocked. But fixed now 🙂 And yes its a lovely 100% traditional log chalet upstairs, so creaks a bit! best wishes, Nigel

We (3 people from Germany) happily returned to Chalet Le Moulin for another 2 weeks in this cosy vacation home in sublime landscape. Nigel and Irene's house is a place where you feel right at home. When it rains — and given the lush green surroundings, this is part of the Alpine experience — we made ourselves comfortable and read, relaxed by the fireplace, and/or ate cheese and other delicacies from French cuisine. The kitchen in the vacation home is well equipped to prepare all these treats. Numerous cookbooks help you prepare foreign recipes with delicious cheese, fresh fish from Super U, etc. Nearby are supermarkets, bakeries, cheese shops, a butcher and weekly markets that offer almost everything you need.When the weather is fine, there are countless opportunities for mountain tours/hikes, ranging from easy to strenuous - afterwards, you can enjoy the fantastic mountain panorama and the sunset on the balcony with a few snacks and good wines.Anyway, time flies... and it's time to plan your return next year.

Cozy chalet with great views

We had never been to Haute Savoie before. It is a remarkable natural landscape in the immediate (Sameons valley) and wider surroundings. The cottage is comfortably furnished, very clean and the kitchen is well equipped with numerous appliances. Deep sleep is guaranteed, the memorable silence is accompanied only by the sound of the torrent. The location - secluded - is exceptional and met our expectations. Only the weather didn't want to show its best side - for alpine hiking - so we enjoyed our stay in the chalet all the more, with a crackling fire. Nearby shopping facilities in Mieussy offer fresh bread, delicious meat products and of course wonderful cheese, not just but also from the super cow “Abandonce”. Excursions to the surrounding area, Evian and Annecy offered good alternatives in bad weather. We hope for more stable weather for our next vacation in Nigel and Irene's wonderful vacation home. PS. Communication with Nigel was always swift and to the point.

Hormis un problème de propreté dans la cuisine et un manque de communication quant à la non utilisation du bain norvégien (qui aurait été appréciable compte tenu que cet équipement faisait partie de nos critères de choix) le séjour s’est bien passé. La vue est imprenable !!!

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié le chalet et la vue. Désolés pour le souci dans la cuisine et pour le bain nordique, qui n’a malheureusement pas pu être utilisé en raison de l’interdiction temporaire des feux pendant la canicule cette année, Nous veillerons à mieux prévenir nos futurs voyageurs. Merci pour votre conseil

Nous avons passé un séjour merveilleux au chalet du Moulin. Celui-ci bénéficie d'une vue à couper le souffle, en effet la vue sur les montagnes est juste incroyable. Le chalet a toutes les commodités. N'est-ce pas formidable de déguster un chocolat chaud devant la cheminée ? Le must..Nous avons fait de très belles ballades avec nos loulous qui étaient la bienvenue. Nigel et Irène les propriétaires sont adorables, quand nous sommes arrivés nous avons trouvé sur la table un petit cadeau : une belle bouteille de vin blanc savoyard avec un joli mot de leur part. Je trouve cela très classe. Nous avons eu plein de conseils qui nous ont beaucoup aidés. Nous n'oublierons jamais ce séjour : chalet merveilleux et l'endroit est vraiment magnifique. Nous y retournerons.

L'emplacement était parfait, l'environnement est incroyable. La maison est confortable, bien équipée et les propriétaires très sympathiques. Seul bémol, le bain nordique, l'homme de ménage nous prévient une fois sur place que ce n'est pas vraiment utilisable, j'aurais aimé le savoir avant. En dehors de ce point c'était génial !
