Chalet Loup

Val d'Isere, France
Sleeps 10 / 5 bedrooms

Chalet Loup is a wonderful addition to our portfolio, a true hideout in the mountains. Set amongst the most charming part of Val d'Isere, Le Fornet, this property is perfect for those looking for a smaller property that is finished to a high spec. At an altitude of 1950m Le Fornet is the perfect base to explore the Val d'Isere ski area and especially the powder stashes of the Grand Vallon. Chalet Loup has five bedrooms split over three floors and sleeps 10 people in total. All rooms have ensuite bathrooms and one of the bedrooms is configured as a bunk room, perfect if you have children. This chalet is offered on a bed and breakfast basis for groups that would like to have more flexibility in the evenings to explore the village.

THE DESIGN

Chalet Loup is one of the oldest buildings in Val d'isere and has been wonderfully restored in 2021 to an exceptional standard keeping unique original features such as the covered wooden terrace. The chalet has thick deep walls and really gives a feel of protection and cosiness when you are inside. Entry into the chalet is on the ground floor where you will find the first two bedrooms, one of which is a bunk room and perfect for children, although the beds are adult size. Climbing the winding central stairs brings you to three perfectly formed ensuite bedrooms. Beautiful grey wood interiors and Les Cinq Freres fabrics brings a contemporary balanced feel to this historic village stone building. Each bedroom boasts it's own bathroom with either a tub or a shower and finished in light or dark marble.

The bedrooms have a large family home style arrangement. The second floor has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. One contains adult sized reclaimed wood bunks and a unique built in queen-sized bunk-bed, perfect for children. The other two bedrooms have fixed king-sized beds. Ascending to the top floor, the mountains come more into view and you will find a large master suite with a king bed and its own bathroom plus a slightly smaller fixed king en-suite room with a large terrace and west facing view down to the main village.

Ascending to the highest floor you pass the small wooden terrace that faces west and leads down to an outdoor hot tub. The terrace is the perfect spot to catch the spring evening sun with an aperitif. The living and dining room occupies the whole of the top floor of the building. The space is perfect for a small group and the lounge seating nestles alongside a modern wood burning chimney. The dining table contrasts brut wood with soft Scandinavian grey chairs and allows for a calming space to enjoy supper. There is also an additional reading space that gives views over the Le Fornet village and Vanoise National Park.
