Mum’s Ski Trip

We had a lovely stay at Claire & Tony’s apartment. They were very accommodating to our needs of an early checkin and late checkout. It was in a good location in the centre of the village, with easy access to all amenities. The bed linen and towels were excellent quality. We would recommend the apartment and would stay here again. Many thanks for a pleasurable stay.

Perfect Skiing Spot for Our Young Family

The perfect family apartment for our 2 young children, aged 4 and 2 and 4 adults! The ideal location in Saint Jean D’aulps at the bottom of the ski lift and next to restaurants, shops and the ski hire. we wanted somewhere convenient, modern, tidy and comfortable to make skiing as easy and enjoyable for our toddlers and the apartment truly delivered. we couldn’t have asked for more and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in saint jean d’aulps or just plan to take a family skiing. highly recommend

So good!

Spacious apartment with plenty of room to relax after a day of skiing. Lovely big sofa, on which we could lounge comfortably. The kitchen is very well equipped. Super comfortable double beds. Great family bathroom with a decent sized shower and the added bonus of another shower room. If conditions are good you wouldn’t need to leave La Grande Terche but it is a great base to explore what the rest of the Portes Du Soleil has to offer. We loved our stay!

Kids first ski trip!

Amazing place, so close to the ski lift - this made it so easy with two 9/10 year olds to get to ski school on time etc. Hired our ski's etc from Muffat Sports which also allowed us to leave them there after each day on the slopes, so easy and time saving. The apartment has a lovely mountain view, so cosy and comfortable - beds/sofa and gorgeous bathroom/shower upstairs. Just the right items in the kitchen and appliances, useful pointers found in a black folder for using the cooker etc. We loved it and will be back in the future. Many thanks for all the communications with the owners - very easy to communicate with. 10/10 holiday... thank you!

Für den Winter sicher gut, im Sommer eher nicht.

Die Beschreibung und Bilder sowie die Kommunikation mit den Gastgebern war wirklich gut im Vorfeld. Als wir angekommen sind, gab es nach und nach kleinere Enttäuschungen. Als erstes der Geruch aus der Küche. Am Abend wussten wir auch warum, die Spülmaschine ist undicht, es sammelt sich Wasser auf dem Boden und in den Küchenmöbeln, daher dann auch der Geruch. Müllbeutel hatten wir nur einen und haben uns welche gekauft. Eine Schere fehlte und haben wir auch gekauft und dort gelassen. Leider war der Großteil des Geschirrs dreckig. Klar, weil die Spülmaschine selten gereinigt wird und dadurch natürlich leicht dreckig spült. Also die ersten Tage das Geschirr von Hand vorher gereinigt. Spülmaschine mal gesäubert. Die Möbel waren in einem guten Zustand und schön eingerichtet. Der Balkon war etwas vollgestellt mit Krimskrams. WLAN war leider nicht so toll. Die Batterie vom Router war kaputt und verlor immer wieder den Kontakt. Geschwindigkeit, wenn es ging eher schlecht. Mobilfunkinternet eben. Im Obergeschoss war alles gut. Bei den Bildern hatten wir vorher den Eindruck, daß es sich um ein neues und gutes Objekt handelt, aber es ist doch älter. Bad und das Gebäude an sich zeigten das. Im Sommer war es doch sehr warm unter dem Dach. Die Wohnung ist okay, aber Bilder und Beschreibung vermitteln einen anderen Eindruck und daher etwas verhalten in der Bewertung.

Perfect apartment

We adored staying in this mountainside apartment. There was ample space for my husband and I plus our three children 15, 11 and 9. It can easily accompany 10. Location was fabulous with enough going on near-by including a little mules et frites event. Locale parking was easily accessible and free. One useful piece of information would be the location of the apartment in the block, it was tricky to find as units S and D are intertwined. But once we’d had a good look around we did locate the place. All in all highly recommended

Comfortable

Tony and Claire are great hosts - communicative, flexible and helpful. The apartment is well appointed, close to ski lifts and a couple of bars/restaurants and a small supermarket. Difficult to find initially (particularly in the dark late at night) but once you know your way it is straightforward. The apartment is spacious and can sleep a large number of people, but is slightly tired now (bathrooms and decor need updating but everything is in working order). WiFi doesn’t seem to work, but mobile reception was fine. A comfortable place to spend a few nights.

About the host

Hosted by Tony & Claire Potts

Host profile image
After leaving the UK in 2003, we are currently teaching at an International School in Mozambique, Southern Africa after teaching 8 years in Zambia, 6 years in Dubai and 5 years in the Philippines. Since the birth of our daughter and son, we decided to find ourselves a home - somewhere that they know is theirs. What better than to combine the things we love!

Why they chose this property

We have being skiing in La Grande Terche since 2004 and when it came to buying a home this was our first choice, nowhere else could offer us the same possibilities as here.

We finally found the perfect apartment for us; light, airy and plenty of space. They say you know you have found the perfect home when you first walk in and this was definitely true for us.

And instead of the apartment sitting empty throughout the ski year, we have decided to rent it out so others can experience some of the same magic and joy!

What makes this property unique

* Light, airy and spacious rooms
* WiFi - limited due to the surrounding mountains (we are impatiently waiting for fibre to reach the area!)
* Smart TV with Netflix and YouTube
* Satellite TV with some British and French Channels
* Modern
* Garage & Ski Cave
* Slopes 50m away
* Small, family-oriented village
* Friendly Ski School
* Quiet slopes
* Two of the best ski runs in the region (I think!) - La Grande Terche (3.5km red run) & Roc d'Enfer (an amazing 18km run)
* Just over an hour and a half from the airport
* Fantastic restaurants nearby
