About this property

The Farmhouse is a beautiful Savoyard Chalet located in the heart of Les Houches, just 200 metres from the nearest ski lift (Bellevue Cable Car) and the village’s other amenities.

It is a traditional farmhouse which has been lovingly and sympathetically restored and brought up to date. The chalet is bursting with character with original wooden beams and a double height living room with a wood burning stove. It has a large terrace with fantastic mountain views of the Aiguille du Midi and the St Marie aqueduct.

The Farmhouse has six double or twin bedrooms and a bunk room, all with en-suite bathrooms. It benefits from an outdoor hot tub with wonderful alpine views. It has two living rooms (so that adults can enjoy a gin and tonic upstairs while the children are watching a movie or playing downstairs) and two kitchens. Maximum group size, including infants, is fourteen.

Guests enjoy access to wifi, satellite television and a DVD player and have use of a locked and heated boot room and private parking for up to three cars. Travel cots and high chairs are available (three of each).

The chalet is offered on a self-catering basis but we can put you in touch with a variety of catering options from private chefs to food delivery services.

Amazing stay!

We had a fantastic stay! Anna’s place is in excellent location, in short walking distance to ski lifts, buses, shops and restaurants. The buses are running so often and are for free if you have a ski pass or a bus pass which Anna provided us with. We were a group of 14, the chalet was super clean, each room has en-suite which each one of us loved. When we had a quick question about where to find something, Anna was really helpful and super quick responding. Really really great stay, we recommend!!!

Hillwalkers in Les Houches

13 members of a hillwalking club stayed in this property in Les Houches. It was wonderful! There are 7 bedrooms, each of which can have 2 people and each bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. The dining room table had space for all of us. There is also a lovely balcony and two lounge areas. And a hot tub! I thoroughly recommend it for large groups.
