Prices Include: UK Flights  | Transfers | Accommodation Branges is a magnificent detached chalet on the opposite side of the road from the hamlet of Le Laisinant, situated halfway between Val d'Isere town centre and Le Fornet. There is a new high-speed chairlift only 400m from the chalet door giving very quick acess to the slopes.
Catered chalet Branges is a beautiful, restored farmhouse extending over three floors and commanding wonderful views of Val d'Isere and the Bellvarde Olympic downhill run, from the huge picture window in the lounge and dining room.
This is a most comfortable and spacious catered chalet with the dining room and upstairs lounge connected by a lovely winding open staircase. There are five bedrooms all of completely different character (and priced accordingly). From the large master bedroom with en-suite facilities (room 4) to the quaint twin room on the top floor (room 5) with a five foot high access door.
The entrance to the chalet is remarkable - an amazing, underground, slate stairway leading directly from the roadway up into the chalet. This has been described by journalists and previous guests as giving a 'James Bond' feel to the chalet. Another interesting feature of this catered chalet is that it boasts its own chapel adjacent to the main building.
There is easy access to the skiing and apres skiing yet there is also a great feeling of privacy and of 'being in the mountains'.
Skiing from the Chalet:
From catered chalet Branges you have 2 options at the beginning of your skiing or snowboarding day. You can either walk about 400m to the brand new Laisinant Express chairlift or you can take the free Train Rouge bus service which will take you directly to the nursery slopes and main lifts of Solaise/Bellvarde in approx. 5 mins., or in the other direction 3 mins. to the cable at Le Fornet. The bus stop is situated about 300m from the chalet, although last season most bus drivers were happy to stop directly outside the chalet itself. It is also possible, snow conditions permitting, to leave the chalet on skis on the gently inclined cross country track and skate to the nursery slopes, a journey of approximately 10 minutes. At the end of the day it is possible to ski down the blue 'L' piste or the red 'Mattis' run to within 400 m of the chalet. |
