Solutions for the discerning alpine enthusiast

Food & Wine

Your hosts' enthusiasm for quality in service is never more present than in the kitchen, where they have earned a reputation for exceptional food and exceptional attention to detail and the needs of their guests.

Unrestricted by typical chalet budgets, we are able to purchase high quality produce, and have developed contacts with local suppliers to bring you a range of fresh and delicious home cooked dishes. Emphasis is given to traditional French cuisine, and we offer you the chance to sample local Savoyard recipes too.

To accompany and compliment your evening meal, a selection of wines are available each night. In addition, there is a supplementary wine list to explore. We source some of our own domain wine from Southern Bourgogne and take great pleasure in sharing them with you.

Particular thought is given to the preparation of meals for children (our most exacting guests!). Tasty casseroles, pizzas, chocolate sponges and crumbles are all homemade, and menus are adapted each week to accommodate individual likes and dislikes. From 5 year olds requesting steamed vegetables and brown rice, to teenagers with ketchup and instant gravy addictions - we have seen (and catered for) it all!

  • Enjoy freshly baked breads, jams, honey, cereal and fresh fruit salad for breakfast, supplemented with perfectly cooked eggs and porridge to set you up for a hard day in the mountains.
  • Return to homemade cakes and biscuits by the fire, with a selection of hot drinks to warm you up.
  • Sit back and relax with a glass of wine, whilst the children tuck into their carefully prepared evening meal.
  • Then discuss the day's events over a delicious 3 course meal with wine, cheese and coffee, as the children snuggle down to watch a DVD in the next room.
