A perfect chalet for two families at any time of year... Early April turned out to be brilliant, with literally nobody on the slopes but several days of great weather and awesome snow, even for one of us who was walking around the slopes with several restaurants within easy reach of the top gondola. At ground level, some good shops and equipment rental places. Plenty of restaurants if you can't be bothered to cook, but self-catering was a pleasure as the chalet has all you need and everything is on your door step, ideal for nipping out to shops which are right beside you - fresh croissants and baguettes always available and at least three supermarkets with anything fresh we needed, plus a travelling butcher where we stocked up on loads of steak, sausages and other goodies. Already looking forward to our next visit...!
