2 bedroom apartment with view in Brides les Bains, Meribel Valley - Ski & Summer

The apartment is on the 5th (top floor) of a residence in the pretty spa town of Brides les Bains. Only 300m from the town centre and 600m from the Olympic Gondola, which gives direct access to Meribel and the whole of the three Valleys - the largest ski area in the world.

The apartment is a generous 56m2 which includes a living and dining area and an open plan kitchen. From the living area there are doors to each bedroom - one double bedroom (King size bed) with ensuite shower room and a second bedroom with bunkbeds. Both bedrooms have built-in wardrobes providing plenty of storage. There is also a bathroom with a bath (and a shower over) and 2 washbasins. There is a separate toilet with sink.

An additional sleeping area is provided by a mountain corner in the hallway which has a set of bunkbeds. This is a cosy area separated from the main living room by a curtain for privacy to create a 3rd bedroom. The apartment sleeps upto 6 people.

Should you need to work during your stay, there is a desk in the main bedroom. Situated by the window it has a view of the mountains and makes a great home office.

From the living area there is a glass door to the balcony. The balcony has seating for 6 and lovely views of the mountains. We have one of the best views in the residence.

The kitchen is well equipped with microwave, 4 ceramic hobs, airfryer, slowcooker, fridgefreezer, dishwasher, toaster, kettle and cafetiere - plus plenty of kitchenware to self cater for 6 people.

In the lounge you will find a large wall mounted TV with DVD player. The TV has an HDMI lead so you can connect your own device for subscription channels. French TV channels are also available. There is also smaller TV and DVD player in the bedroom.

Our apartment has its own washing machine but there is also a shared 'pay as you go' laundry room in the residence which has tumble driers if needed.

We also have a private parking space in the underground garage.

We have a local English couple (French speakers) who manage and clean the apartment and they are there to help you should any emergencies arise - contact details will be supplied when you book. They can supply extra cleaning, linen and many other services if requested. They can also arrange a food and or wine pack to be in the apartment on arrival on request.

Keys : will be in a key safe outside the apartment, including a fob to open the underground garage. You will be given a security number for the key safe when you book and pay your deposit. You can therefore arrive as late as you like with no fear of not getting in!

Brides les Bains is istuated in the Meribel family and linked to Meribel centre by the Oylmpic gondola. It is an ideal base to ski the 3 Valleys without having to pay the significantly higher prices of Meribel or Courcheval.

Brides les Bains is also famous for its spa and thermal bathing facilities. In the summer it is as lively as in the winter and is a great base to explore the Alps (walking, mountain biking, horseriding, white water rafting, kayaking etc). It is a very pretty town with a central river, large park and some lovely shops, bars and restaurants for apres-ski or summer dining experiences.

In ski season our usual changeover day is Saturday. In spring/summer, we can be more flexible so please contact us with your request if you plan to arrive on a different day.

Ski Hire : the Inter-sport ski hire shop in Brides-les-Bains will give you a discount off equipment hire.

Ski Pass : We can also arrange for ski passes to be purchased before you arrive - these will be waiting in the apartment for you when you arrive. Please ask for details when you book.


The Three Valleys, in the heart of the French Alps has rightly earned its name as the largest integrated skiing area in the world. 330 marked ski-slopes offer a total of 600 kilometres of pure skiing enjoyment. Thanks to around 180 ski-lifts, the ski-slopes (between 1300m and 3200 m) are reached quickly and easily, including glacier areas. The enormous infrastructure of ski-runs and lifts connects not only the large ski stations at Val Thorens, Les Menuires, Meribel-Mottaret and Courchevel with one another but also the up-and-coming smaller skiing locations at Saint Martin and La Tania and Orelle.

Good Skiers can experience all three valleys of the skiing area in a single day, having the choice of countless ski-runs. However there is something for everyone from easy to difficult runs, so that experienced skiers as well as beginners can enjoy the three Valleys.

The Olympic Centre in Meribel has an ice rink, Olympic size pool with kids pool and slides, and crèche facilities. All just at the top of the Gondola from Brides Les Bains. Meribel itself also offers an impressive choice of Apres-Ski, cafes, restaurants and shops.
