This accommodation in the Three Valleys is called Chalet Florame and occupies an excellent position in the centre of the traditional French village of Courchevel Le Praz.
This newly renovated chalet, built in the typical savoyarde style of stone and wood is only 200 metres from the Le Praz gondola which links directly with Courchevel 1850. The village square is literally a stone’s throw from your doorstep with ski-shops, bars, a creperie and restaurants…perfect for that après ski vin chaud!
This fabulous stone and wood chalet (which adjoins the Bistrot du Praz - one of the Alps most prestigious restaurants) is furnished in a modern style, yet retains many original features such as the fireplace and stone walls enhancing the warm and cosy character of the chalet. There are four bedrooms, beautifully finished with wood floors and walls, each with en-suite shower, WC and washbasin.
In normal snow conditions guests can enjoy the convenience of skiing back to within 30 metres of the chalet. In fact the chalet is one of an elite group with village centre, pistes and lifts so close by.
The open plan kitchen/lounge/dining room is cosy, comfortable and very well equipped with Satellite TV, DVD, CD sound system and board games. The chalet day begins with a sumptuous breakfast providing the perfect start to a day of skiing or snowboarding! On your return to the chalet, afternoon tea is enjoyed around the warmth of the log fire.
Aperitif and canapés precede a splendid four course evening meal including a regional cheese board and unlimited fine wine followed by filter coffee, chocolates and petit fours.
Courchevel Le Praz, truly Savoyard in character, is definitely the prettiest of the four Courchevel villages. A quaint village square, rustic chalets and narrow cobbled streets create a traditional French village ambience, which is rare these days in most French ski resorts.
Le Praz boasts a good selection of lively bars, mouth-watering creperies and fine restaurants including "Le Bistrot du Praz", one of the most famous restaurants in the Three Valleys.
Le Praz is excellently situated with two telecabine lifts, "Praz" and "Foret"(located less than 200 metres from our chalet) providing uncomplicated access to the magnificent Three Valley skiing region. The Praz telecabine lift takes you directly into Courchevel 1850 in time to meet for ski school. The Foret telecabine lift whisks you up towards the summit of "La Loze" at 2196metres, giving easy access to the wonderful skiing of Courchevel or Meribel valley! Of course with Courchevel's reputable lift system queues are virtually non-existent…utilising just two lifts from the Le Praz village you can be skiing in the next valley within 20 minutes!
For non-skiers, Le Praz offers many opportunities for lovely walks in the surrounding woods and forest. You may also wish to discover the other villages of Courchevel utilising the free bus service.
Most importantly, the brilliant lift system means that non-skiers need not miss out on lunch with friends or family in one of the scenic mountain restaurants.
Home of the Olympic Ski Jump, Le Praz attracts visitors from near and far to witness the spectacular international ski jump events that are frequently held throughout the season.
The ski jump stands floodlit at night, towering above the village. In the early evening, at the foot of the jump, the slopes come alive with children and adults alike whizzing down on toboggans and small sledges!
