Chalet La Vieille Maison

Chalet La Vieille Maison has a super position less than one minute walk from the centre of Plagne Montalbert, the bottom of the home pistes, the ski school meeting point and main lift station. Getting skiing in the morning and returning at the end of the day could hardly be any easier, and with all the resort amenities within very easy reach this catered chalet is likely to be popular.

This authentic and traditional chalet offers a spacious sitting and dining room with fireplace (wood provided) and six en-suite bedrooms. Two of these rooms have a mezzanine level (accessed via steep open tread ladder/staircase) with two extra single beds, and a further two bedrooms have a 3rd bed. In total the chalet can accommodate up to 22 adults and children although if filled to this maximum it will start to feel quite cramped in the communal areas.

The indoor chalet wellness is a welcome extra with its sauna and hot tub.

NB: This chalet is operated by a Dutch tour operator, who have been in the catered ski chalet business since 1977, operating 37 ski chalets in France, Austria and Italy.

The main difference between a 'normal' British-run chalet, which you will be familiar with, and the Dutch product is that afternoon tea and cakes are not included. However, house wine, beers, soft drinks, and tea and coffee are available and are included in the cost of your holiday.

Breakfasts will be continental in style with cheese, hams and bread, yogurt and fruit juices, tea and coffee.
