Are you looking for a romantic chalet with wood fires but all the modern luxuries like underfloor heating? Somewhere with real peace? A breathtaking view to greet you every morning?
Chalet Le Moulin is perfectly located high up the mountain on the way to the high up ski resorts of Praz de Lys - Sommand (main lift starts 1500m). Here the snow is crispy and deep. The chalet is exclusively situated to enjoy stunning views over the valley to the mountain tops and has all the serenity you could ever wish for! Our village resort is truly family friendly, offering a delightful 60km of high snow runs linked by 24 lifts over mountains and passes to the resort Praz de Lys, and is suitable for all ski abilities. It is renowned by local French and Swiss for its Alpine beauty, including the majestic tall pine forests and spectacular open mountain tops across from the Grand Massif of Mont Blanc. Here you can avoid the crowds and clamour of the neighbouring resorts on either side, Les-Gets/Morzine and Samoens/Flaine, or decide to try them out. The choice is yours!
In the summer, you can walk from the chalet door. There are hiking trails across the mountains with spectacular views, gushing streams and cliff caves. You can walk past timeless Alpine Chalet farms that are still making reblouchon cheese and in late spring alpine meadows are crammed with flowers.
Come and breathe some fresh air, whether to ski or just simply relax and enjoy the peace!
Village Ski Resort with aclose by even bigger choice:
The chalet sits high above the village of Mieussy on the way its own ski resort of Praz de Lys - Sommand. Its just a few minutes drive further to park next to chair lifts that start at a high altitude of 1510m. Here the snow is already crisp and pillowy with soaring pine forests and open meadows. Next to the lifts are nursery slopes for beginers and ski schools and also lots of cross country trails. This magnificent setting make the resort a special place much sought after by cross country and back country skiers as well as families who require skiing at all levels. Its natural Alpine beauty at its best - unspoilt.
Our village of Mieussy lies in the famous Samoens/Les Gets valley, the chalet is a 14 minutes drive up to Sommand and Praz de Lys. But equally the chalet door is less than 20 minutes drive from the chairlifts of the famous ski villages of Morillion/Samoens and Les Get/Morzine. All 4 villages link up with many other resorts and its possible to ski all day and right over into Switzerland, without backtracking. Its so big you will never get round it all !
But it's not all about the skiing. Chalet Le Moulin is also somewhere to enjoy time with your family and friends.
Also you may explore the local winter markets and family events in the surrounding villages. For more sophisticated glamour, it is a just a short trip to either the bright lights of Geneva or the lakeside magic of Annecy (our favourite away day from the ski slopes)
Do you want to escape the hubbub of a crowded ski resort with all its noisy bars and impersonal tourism? Try some natural peace, open views and quiet winter forests from your chalet door.
When the snows are deep, its easy to hire some snow shoes in the village and enjoy the white beauty of the trails. It’s straight from the pages of Narnia and an experience you wont forget.

Why they chose this property
Chalet Le Moulin is a classic French log chalet offering the experience of wood charm of solid logs, set high up the mountain with spectacular views, its own adjacent pine trees forest and surrounding meadows. Just above is our village ski resort that extends over and arounds the mountains to the neighbouring resort of Praz de Lys. We think our village has the prettiest skiing in the French Alps! It's a protected nature reserve without the mass development of some of its neighbours. Loved for being uncrowded and family friendly - here you will not get knocked over by rude 20 somethings from Northern Europe. Slopes are much less crowded, with long blissful ski trails and plenty of challenging runs at all levels. This is the secret resort where the local French and Swiss from Geneva go!
In the spring and summer it turns into magnificent green Alpine 'Heidi' country. Distant cowbells float up on the warm air as background music. The chalet is 50 minutes from the borders of Switzerland or Italy. Its perfect for exploring the Alps and lakes. The nearby lake town of Annecy is the single place that polled highest amonst French people for where most French people would like to move to if they could.

What makes this property unique
A truly peaceful hideaway. Romantic chalet charm with wood fires but also luxury renovated kitchen, bathrooms, furnishings and fittings. Chalet Le Moulin faces south across the valley with views that inspire calm and serenity. From the door there are hiking trails across the mountains with spectacular views, gushing streams and cliff caves. You can walk past timeless Alpine Chalet farms, still making reblouchon cheese and in late spring the meadows are crammed with flowers. Afterwards you start up the wood fired hot tub.
There is plenty of space to play outside and explore. The chalet has its own private woodland, hammocks, and hidden terraces to sunbathe.
