This was the accommodation used on the 2016 trip:
The trip was based in one of two wonderful Morzine chalets or a centrally located apartment.
One is an attractive, traditionally furnished chalet located in the Pied de la Plagne area of Morzine. The chalet sleeps 10 – 12 in 2 double en-suites, 1 twin en-suite and 2 triple en-suite rooms. The ground floor of the chalet comprises a large entrance hall and one double en-suite bedroom, as well as a large, open plan living and dining area with wood burning stove. All of the remaining bedrooms can be found on the first floor. Accessed via a separate entrance the lower ground floor is the sauna and a large boot room. There is a large terrace at the rear of the chalet which is home to the outdoor hot tub.
The other is an 18th century converted barn located in the majestic Prodains valley and boasts a high quality finish and covered outdoor hot tub on the terrace in which to relax after a long day of enjoying yourself! The chalet has a spacious, open plan lounge/dining room features a large dining table, plenty of comfortable seating and underfloor heating throughout. The kitchen is spacious and extremely well equipped. There are three twin en-suite bedrooms on the ground floor and two large quad en-suite bedrooms on the first floor. The chalet also offers a large secure garage area and on-site parking. Free wifi is available throughout.
The apartment is an attractive, traditionally furnished duplex apartment just off the main square in central Morzine. It sleeps 6 – 8 in 2 doubles and 1 twin room. The ground floor of the apartment comprises large open-plan living and dining area. On the first floor are three bedrooms; one double en-suite, one double and a twin which share a family bathroom and additional WC. There is also a large mezzanine seating area with sofa. The large, open plan living area and open fire make a great place to chill out in the evenings, whilst the adjoining balcony looks out over central Morzine.
