Lovely chalet, rustic but spacious and well appointed. It is in a great position.

La Taniere is a lovely chalet - spacious, atmospheric and full of rustic charm. It is very cosy even although the centre of the communal space is double height. (plenty of logs provided a welcome fire) The chalet is well appointed. We loved the quality bed linen and fluffy towels. There was plenty of equipment, pots and pans etc for us keen cooks. The sociable open plan layout worked well for us. As a party of both skiers and walkers we found the chalet very well situated for both. The Vallorcine Telecabine and Railway Station are only a few minutes away and we used both to access the various ski areas and also took the Mont Blanc Express along the scenic route to Martigny on the day we left - it was stunning. One of the highlights of our holiday was the excellent meal at Cafe Comptoir - the very attractive and friendly restaurant just across the road. We had a very successful holiday and were very grateful to be able to store our luggage in the garage both on the day we arrived (early) and the day we left (late), allowing us to make the most of our time in Vallorcine.

Stylish, cosy but spacious chalet in great location

As an extended family of 5 adults and 3 children we found La Taniere could not have been more perfect. The chalet has a very homely feel and returning after a day on the slopes to the log fire, sheep skins and bare wood was marvellous. The chalet is extremely spacious which is rare for this price bracket in the Alps, including the bedrooms, especially the master. Also having all en suite is a huge benefit. The cooking facilities and kitchen are great, with a large island and breakfast bar - also great to have drinks around at night. There is also plenty of hot water and the heating is easy to manage and effective. There is a great bar just outside which is has a good vibe during the day but is a quiet restaurant at night. The ski lift to Balme Le Tour is one minutes walk away. As far as I’m concerned Vallorcine is the best place to stay with a family in the Chamonix Valley. Not only is it a pretty village but it has several benefits - it is quiet - on a powder day you can walk to first lift up to tete de balme and enjoy some awesome off piste whilst everyone else is queuing in argentiere - if you do want to head to argentiere you miss any chamonix traffic on the way to kids ski school- the train to chamonix is always quiet at vallorcine and easy to take - there is often a lot of untouched off piste when everything in lognan has been cut up etc... All in all if you’re a family or a group of friends who don’t need too many bars at night but would rather enjoy time with each other in a wonderful setting then La Taniere could not be better.

Chalet très confortable, très bien équipé

Accueil très chaleureux d'Annette la propriétaire, tout est fait pour qu'on se sente bien et qu'on profite au maximum des vacances. Nous qui aimons cuisiner avons trouvé tout ce qu'il faut, c'est très bien équipé, vraiment. Le chalet est grand, les chambres sont de taille raisonnable avec chacune une salle de bain. Nous étions 6 adultes et 3 petits et chacun pouvait avoir son rythme et son espace. Je recommande à 100% cette location.

Très belle maison, idéale pour des réunions de famille ou des groupes

Maison très vaste et bien équipée. Le très grand séjour, la cuisine équipée comme à la maison, les deux terrasses et les 4 chambres avec salles de bain nous ont permis de passer un excellent séjour en famille (des grands parents aux enfants et petits enfants, tous de moins de 5 ans) sans avoir l’impression de se marcher dessus.

Très beau chalet dans un très bel endroit

Le chalet est spacieux, beaux et très convivial. De plus, il offre une salle de douche (ou bain) +wc par chambre. L’environnement est très agréable. Les activités sont nombreuses dans le coin et Chamonix n’est pas très loin. On peut commencé des randonnées et trouvé un mur d’escalade directement à pied depuis le chalet . Anette, Sven et Rachida sont adorables et disponibles. Nous étions en famille + amis et ce fut une très belle semaine. Merci

Great Covid getaway!

We really enjoyed our stay at Annette and Sven's lovely home. We went during off season so many things in the immediate area were closed, but it ended up being the perfect Covid get away. We were able to go on multiple hikes right from the house and there were many more that we didn't get to. We also were able to see the Emosson Dam, take the cable car to Midi and the train to see the glacier at Montenvers. Annette and Sven assisted us with many questions and things to do. They could not have been more helpful or welcoming. The train is literally steps from the house and it was easy to make our way to Chamonix. Thank you for sharing your home with our family, we had a wonderful time! We hope to visit again sometime!

Amazing house close to the cable car!

Such a nice and spacious house located on the foot of the mountain just were the slope ends and village starts. The house has everything you need for a perfect ski holiday. We even got to borrow sledges from Annette and Sven! Annette and the manager Rachida were so easy to communicate with and kept us updated with all necessary information regarding snowfall, road closure etc. I even got to borrow Annettes’ winter boots since I forgot mine at home! Unfortunately we left the house with some small damages from our kids but Annette were very understanding. We hope to see you again one day!

What a lovely location and property.

We had a lovely time in this beautiful, very well-sized, home. We really felt like we were in our own home. It was extremely well stocked and the location was superb for the local ski area. Being able to ski back to pretty much your back door was a nice perk. We had a very nice (and surprisingly quiet, especially on new year's eve) restaurant across the road which serves super food. Our hosts, Annette and Sven, were extremely understanding and kind about some damage my youngest child caused and were very pleasant and kind to deal with. We will definitely go back!

Perfect family holiday in the Chamonix valley

The chalet is very spacious and well-equipped. It’s been a perfect place for us, our grown-up children and friends. The fireplace with plenty of wood and comfortable sofas has been a warm hearth for some great family bonding. The spring skiing has been great too with some of the best off-piste skiing conveniently off the tete de Balme chair. Vallorcine is a quaint and unspoilt village but has most services needed. However we made full use of the free tickets on the Mont Blanc express to ride to and from Argentiere and Chamonix too. Another highlight was the new spa (QC Terme) in Chamonix. This is a fantastic experience to sooth those aching ski muscles! We will be sad to leave Annette and Sven’s place, its been ideal!

Beautiful Chalet

The chalet is situated in a great location, within 2 minutes walking distance of the Vallorcine gondola and right across there's a very nice restaurant. The check-in was very easy and the owner, Annette, provided us with very helpful information and tips. The chalet is very warm and quite big and had everything we needed, the kitchen is fully equipped, the big-screen TV had cable and Netflix, and there's also a pair of wireless speakers. The train station is a minute away which make skiing in Chamonix or Argentiere very convenient as well. It's a great chalet and we couldn't recommend it more.
