Chalet La Grande Sassiere  

The Location

Chalet la Grande Sassiere is located in the much sought after resort of Val d'Isere, on a quiet private road which commands stunning views of this beautiful valley. Val d'Isere combined with Tignes offers over 300km of skiing with something to suit all abilities and one of the best snow records in France. The village itself is quintessentially Savoyard, with charming stone and timber chalets and a gorgeous town centre, lined with a great selection of charming boutiques and delightful restaurants and bars. The chalet is located in the “Le Cret” area of the resort, which is around 12 minutes' walk into the centre of Val d'Isere, roughly halfway between La Daille and Val d'Isere, which is great if you wish to head in the direction of the slopes in Tignes, as access is much quick from La Daille. For a faster route into town, there is a free shuttle bus stop just a few minutes' walk from the chalet.

The room is large and spacious with classic Savoyard wood panelling and huge exposed roof beams. The south wall is made entirely of glass, with the dining table positioned in the perfect spot to enjoy the views. Whilst eating dinner in the evenings, the moonlight lights up the mountains whilst at breakfast the sun pokes its head up over the Solaise, both providing stunning backdrops for your first and last meals of the day.

Outside there is a large hot tub on the terrace, another wonderful spot to enjoy the stunning views this chalet has to offer. Particularly at sunset, with a beer or glass of wine in hand whilst easing your muscles after a tiring day on the mountain.

The living room which is adjacent to the dining room has deep comfortable sofas, perfect for relaxing in after a tiring day and reading a good book in front of the roaring open fireplace.

Classic Contactless Catering Service

Ski France presents the next generation of chalet holidays, for a contactless world. Your chalet will be ready on arrival - beds made, dinner ready and fridges stocked*, wine-cellars replenished, skis and lift passes all booked. But you won't see us. We'll be at the end of the phone, but there will be no contact, unless you need it. You and your family will be safe and looked-after, as we work in the background, providing everything you need.

Our contactless catering service comes with the choice of two pricing options, a fixed menu with food and drink included in the price, and our self catered option which does not include food or drink, so you are free to tailor-make your holiday meals on a budget that suits you.

For those looking for a simple packaged chalet price, we are offering an all-inclusive price, which includes rental of the chalet and your food and drink for the week. Included will be breakfast, afternoon tea, a three course dinner on 6 out of 7 nights, plus unlimited wine and some beers. We have prepared a delicious menu for the week, with a mix of ready prepared meals from a local delicatessen and easy to cook dishes or sides. All that will be required from you is to pop a few things in the oven and throw together a few ingredients to make a simple salad, or steam a few vegetables as sides to your main meal.

Perhaps you want the freedom to choose your own menus, or perhaps you'd prefer to eat out more than one evening during the week, or you just love to cook yourself and enjoy the holidays where you have time to do this in a relaxed way. That's where our self catering service comes in. As an alternative to the service detailed above, we will also offer a lower rate, which does not include the food and drink for the week.

Our aim is to provide the safest possible environment for a ski holiday, whilst staying as affordable as possible. The new way to holiday will be by enjoying the facilities, food and beverages but without the staff waiting on you hand and foot. That will keep things safe and affordable. However, for those in search of a little more luxury, we are able to provide drivers, chefs, daily cleaning, ski lessons etc, all of which can be discussed at the time of booking or with our concierge service prior to arrival.

*Please note that for the self catered option, ski hire and lift passes come at additional costs and are not included in the chalet price. Ski hire and lift passes can be booked in advance with our preferential rates. For our fixed menu option, the price does not include ski hire and lift passes, but it does include breakfast and afternoon tea for 7 days, plus a 3-course dinner with beer and wine for 6 days.
