About this property
Chez Nous Zermatt - 4 luxury apartments in same building with Matterhorn views
Angus Potter and Lizzie Orange set up Chez Nous Zermatt to offer our guests a luxury holiday rental experience that feels more personal – more like staying with a friend than in a “vacation home”.
Le Petit is a very pretty, spacious 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment on the 1st floor - perfect for 4 people (and many of our guests put 3 children in to the second bedroom so that it sleeps 5). The apartment has stunning views straight out on to The Matterhorn.
Great care has been taken to create a truly welcoming atmosphere: the pretty sitting room/dining room has a kitchen off it and a large wrap-around balcony that faces out to the field with the lovely old Swiss stadels in the foreground and the Matterhorn presiding in the background. The dining area comfortably seats 4-6 people so you can enjoy meals at home and then in the evenings (or on bad weather days) you can get cosy in front of the 45' home cinema system (with UK channels and Apple TV) watching a film or reading your book and when it is time to sleep the beds are super-comfortable. We also make sure that "the basics" are in stock so that you can make tea/coffee and have a glass of wine without having to go shopping straight away!
If you are part of a larger group of family and friends then combining Le Petit with one of our other apartments can allow you all to be together in the same building but free to retreat to own space when needed. See our other listings for Le Corbassiere (sleeps 6), The Mischabel (sleeps 6-8) and L'Etoile (sleeps 2-3).
All the Chez Nous apartments have 180 degree views straight out on to The Matterhorn, over towards Gornergrat and up the Trift valley . One of the only remaining fields in the village is just in front of us which gives a welcome feeling of space despite being so close to all the restaurants, the church bridge and the lift stations/bus.
The only practical point to bear in mind is that direct access to our building from street level (when you arrive and leave) is down 3 flights of stairs. However once your luggage is installed most guests then use the shortcut to the village via a path across the field in front of the house.

Wonderful view of the Matterhorn. Easy walk to all activities. Jo met us at the train station and ordered a taxi to take us to the property. Jo walked us through all the details of the property and we were comfortable immediately.
Excellent host and location. Beautiful view of the Matterhorn right off the deck. Super clean. Would definitely stay again!!

Perfect place to enjoy a unique ski resort
Zermatt ranks as one of the most special places on the planet and that is no small part because of Lizzie and Angus and their apartments. Everything was as ever in perfect alignment.

Thank you Terry and Laura - it was lovely to have you back with us again and to see you and your friends using the apartments as your "Zermatt home". See you next year!
Best wishes, Lizzie and Angus
I wish I could say accurately just how awesome this place is, but it was perfect. Just perfect. Jo and Lizzie were amazing. Responded with any questions in no time. Hospitality you would expect from staying with friends. One of the best equipped places we’ve ever stayed! Please stay here.
Everything about the apartment was fantastic. It's very cozy, well stocked kitchen, location and the sunrise view on the matterhorn. Lizzy and Lou helped so much with travel and restaurant reservations and village tips. Great visit. I would come stay here again without a doubt.

Dear Ann
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review and I am delighted that you enjoyed your trip to Zermatt and that the apartment lived up to expectations - we know that we are very lucky to have the view that we do and it is a genuine pleasure to be able to share it with our guests.
Hope that we will be able to welcome you back at some stage and very best wishes for the rest of 2022, Lizzie and Lou.
Everything regarding this booking and property was exceptional. The property itself was centrally located to all Zermatt has to offer. The styling and decor was rustic modern and classy. The place was absolutely “spotless” and included any amenity you need. Their inclusion of starter supplies was a very nice touch. Customer service and communications was superior in every way!! From clear instructions, to arrival and departing assistance, to response time, etc., they excelled. I highly recommend this property.
A lovely corner in the heavenly village of Zermatt
Owner, Lizzie and property manager, Lou made our reservation, check in, stay and departure all a breeze. Both responded quickly and completely to our inquiries. The apartment was beautifully equipped, cozy and close to everything! Highly recommend!

Thank you for leaving a review so quickly Shannon - much appreciated! I am so glad that you enjoyed your time in Zermatt and found Le Petit a cosy base for your stay in the mountains. Sorry that I missed seeing you this time around but will pass on your thanks to Lou and I know that she really enjoyed having you with us.

Lizzie’s place was perfect for our family of four. It’s beautifully finished and in a great location. Additionally Lizzie is wonderful to work with. She provided helpful information prior to our arrival and had bread, coffee and other staples in the refrigerator when we arrived. Such a nice touch!
We absolutely loved Chez Nous. The property was in a great location, walkable to anywhere. The apartment was clean, cozy and well equipped with anything we needed. Lizzie (the host) was the most informative, kind and helpful host we have ever experienced at any of our VRBO stays. I would highly recommend Chez Nous to anyone looking to visit Zermatt. If we ever have the opportunity to go back, we would definitely stay here again. Thanks Lizzie!

Amazing apartment in fantastic location!
We had the most fantastic stay at Le Petit! The apartment is fully furnished with amazingly comfortable beds, great shower and a fully equipped kitchen. We couldn’t have wanted for anything else in an apartment during our time in Zermatt. Lizzie was easy to communicate with and had our ski passes waiting for us when we arrived which was a great help. We would 100% stay here again if we visit Zermatt again and have to mention the most delicious lemon cake Lizzie made!

It was lovely to meet you and I know that Angus was sorry that he missed you all - but hopefully there will be a next time so please let us know if you are ever headed back our way and I will make sure there is a lemon cake waiting for you! Very best wishes for the rest of 2018, Lizzie
We spent six nights at Le Petit at Chez Nous Zermatt. Everything was exactly as expected. Lizzie was extremely helpful leading up to the visit. There’s nothing we would have changed about the home - we are 100% satisfied. Thank you very much.

Classy convenient chalet
Guests at Le Petit can expect top quality, the owners have not skimped on furnishings and have thought of everything. The chalet has everything needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Lizzie is also incredibly helpful with local knowledge. The chalet is positioned between the main ski access gondolas, so access is easy. We had not realised how sprawling Zermatt was prior to arrival and the location of Le Petit is fantastic - relatively flat walking distance to the shopping and the lifts. It was also the cleanest chalet we have ever stayed in.

Superb apartment, ideally positioned in Zermatt
The apartment is so well arranged, furnished and decorated and ideally positioned for both the main ski lifts and and central Zermatt shops and restaurants.The view over an old meadow to the mountains and the Matterhorn is wonderful.Lizzie and Angus are wonderful hosts. Nothing seems to be too much trouble and they really know Zermatt and all the ski areas. Have been going to Zermatt since 2004 and have now stayed at Chez Nous for four years and genuinely wouldnt think of anywhere else in Zermatt.Cannot recommend highly enough.

Fabulous Apartment - Perfect Location
This flat was immaculate, and centrally located. The perfect size (two bedrooms), well appointed and very comfortable. ... And did I mention the view? Unbeatable! There is open space next to the building, so the view is unobstructed.
Lizzie was extra nice, and helped us get to and from the rail station via electric taxi. She also knew (and was happy to recommend) all the best places to eat.
I would recommend this place to anyone.

Dear Jim
Thank you for taking the time to post a review for us and I'm so glad that you got to enjoy the Matterhorn in all its glory from the apartment (I'm afraid that say that other guests who came in July have not been so lucky because it has been shrouded in cloud…).
Hope that we may be able to welcome you back here but in the meantime best wishes to you all, Lizzie.
We are a family of 4 including a 16 yo son and 13 yo daughter visiting from USA. We had an amazing time!! Lizzie was super helpful even before we arrived. She helped us get proper train tickets into zermatt and back to Paris. Her communication was perfect down to meeting g is at the train station.
The apt was perfect. A spacious living room, a master bedroom and another room for our children. The apt was beautiful with a working kitchen and beautiful views of the Matterhorn for morning coffee and easy walk to town. Amazing unit and owners. 5 stars!!
This apartment—Mischabel—was the best VRBO place we’ve ever stayed in (and we have stayed in a lot of them in U.S., U.K., and Europe). It was absolutely spotlessly clean, I mean there wasn’t a speck of dirt, even under the furniture. It was beautifully, tastefully decorated, and very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped—uncommonly so. It had everything we needed or could have wanted. Throughout the apartment, everything was in perfect order—there were no scratched beat up old non-stick pans, no half-melted plastic spatulas, no non-functioning appliances, no burned out light bulbs, no broken window blinds—all of which are sadly standard in so many other VRBO rentals. The place is gorgeous, and sitting on the deck watching the Matterhorn was spectacular. Lizzie and her on-site person were very responsive, and super helpful, they provided outstanding communications.

Oh thank you Rob - for such a lovely and detailed review. I know what you mean about turning up to a rental that has few melted spatulas as their offering for kitchen implements - it drives me up the wall. So I am particularly pleased that we passed that test! And most of all I am glad that you had a good time in Zermatt.
Best wishes to you all for the rest of your summer, Lizzie

Merci Christine.
Nous avons été ravis de vous accueillir et je suis heureuse que l'appartement vous ait plu. J'espère que nous pourrons vous accueillir à nouveau à Zermatt et je vous adresse mes meilleurs vœux pour 2023, Lizzie.
We had a wonderful stay at Chez Nous. The property was exactly as described, we were not disappointed. We enjoyed wonderful views of the Matterhorn from the patio areas. It was so nice to have a kitchen and place to wind down after more than a week of hopping from hotel to hotel in a prior motor cycle tour of the Alps.
Lizzie picked us up at the train station, gave us all the needed information for the area - where to eat, buy groceries, hike, etc.
The kitchen was well equipped, the bedding comfortable. The property is so nicely decorated and cleanly kept.
We enjoyed watching a few movies in the evening on the large TV, wifi was good as well, we had no trouble with connectivity.
Thanks for a wonderful stay, we'll never forget it.

Perfect location with a view of Matterhorn
We were very pleased with the location. We had a gorgeous view of Matterhorn from the living room and the balcony. We had sun on that balcony during then day until late afternoon which was perfect for lazy afternoons. The apartment was very well equipped and organized. The beds were very comfortable and the bath lovely. Maps, information and suggestions on what to do and how was available. It felt like coming to someones home. The feeling of rental was non existing with was lovely. Lizzy and her staff were all very helpful with organizing both transfer and skipas and available for questions during our stay. It was walking distance to both ski systems and it was just a few minutes to the bus. The only thing that could improve is availability of dryers for the skiboots since you are not allowed to take them up into the apartment.

Thank you so much for taking the time to do a review Lotta and I am so pleased that you felt properly at home in Le Petit - that is what we were hoping guests would feel so it is nice to know we achieved what we aim for and that you enjoyed the space.
Thank you for the feedback about the boot dryers - we don't own the building and unfortunately are not able to put boot dryers in. Most guests find the underfloor heating is enough or those that rent boots and skis and leave them in the rental shops over night - we will continue to lobby the owners!
We will look forward to seeing you again next season when you know what your schedule is looking like and very best wishes to you both for summer in the meantime. Lizzie and Angus

Great location, property and host
We stayed here in late January, the apartment was located just a few minutes walk from the lifts and the main street, which was really convenient. We had two couples and both were very comfortable. Lizzie was extremely helpful getting us oriented for our first visit to Zermatt and her guide on where to eat and rent equipment was invaluable. I would definitely stay here again. Bonus is that you can see the Matterhorn from the living room.

Perfect home from home in zermatt
We had a great stay at chez nous zermatt for two reasons. Firstly the apartment itself was very comfortable, spacious and well equipped. Secondly hosts Lizzie and Angus were extremely helpful in arranging all we could hope for in terms of lift passes, lunch bookings and more. Lots of nice small touches like chocolate in the boot room too. As with anywhere in zermatt you can’t be close to the lifts of both main mountains but the location here worked well for us even with young children, helped by the free ski lockers all over the ski area. Strongly recommended.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 March 2020
Thank you James. It is really nice to know that your stay with us enhanced your experience of your first trip to Zermatt and I am so pleased that you are planning to come back next season - and your feedback about the way the village sits "in the middle" with the main lift networks at either end is spot on - because I think that sometimes "on paper" that can seem difficult to navigate so I am sure it will help other guests to know that it is do-able!
We will look forward to welcoming you back next season and best wishes to you all until then, Lizzie and Angus

Marvelous stay at Chez Nous
Chez Nous is a wonderful condo -- beautifully furnished and maintained and it is well situated in the village. Lizzie served as a superb concierge for us letting us know which train tickets to purchase, setting up a ski guide, giving us great recommendations for ski rental, etc. She also had fresh tea bread prepared for us and even had the frig stocked with orange juice, milk and butter upon our arrival. Chez Nous was an excellent value and gave our family of four space to stretch out after three amazing days of skiing at Zermatt. We are very picky when it comes to lodging, and Chez Nous definitely lived up to our expectations -- actually, it surpassed them. Highly recommend -- would definitely stay here again.

I know how hard it can sometimes be to sift through potential places to stay and you always wonder whether they will actually be as they are described so it means a lot to know that we exceeded expectations. Thank you! And I do hope that we will be able to welcome you back to Zermatt at some stage but in the meantime very best wishes to you all as we head in to spring and summer. Lizzie

About the host
Hosted by Lizzie Orange
Angus Potter and Lizzie Orange set up Chez Nous Zermatt to offer our guests a luxury holiday rental experience that feels more personal – more like staying with a friend than in a “vacation home”.
We have deliberately kept Chez Nous Zermatt small because our experience is that a boutique, owner-managed business is the best way to ensure that our guests get a truly personal service. We have personally furnished our holiday apartments to create an atmosphere that aims to make you feel at home from the moment you walk in.
Family commitments mean that we now divide our time between the UK and Zermatt but we have a small concierge team on the ground here who know Zermatt well and between us we will make sure you are well looked after during your stay.
Why they chose this property
Initially we ran a small b&b from our own apartment but we now have 4 apartments in this building (the Swiss laws re. foreigners buying property allowed us to buy one and lease the others) and as from Winter 2018/19, Chez Nous has 4 apartments to rent: The Corbassiere which sleeps 6 on the 3rd floor, The Mischabel which sleeps 6-8 on the 2nd floor, Le Petit which sleeps 4 on the 1st floor and now L'Etoile a 1 bedroomed apartment also on the 1st floor next to Le Petit.
We offer our guests the freedom of a self-catered holiday combined with the feel and warmth of staying in someone else's home. We have completely re-furnished the flats to create an atmosphere that aims to make you feel at home from the moment you walk in.
What makes this property unique
Our apartments are definitely more than just "a rental"; we have created an atmosphere of "home" in all of them and they are filled with lots of the personal touches that we appreciate in places we stay and want to offer our guests. Our building sits right in the centre of the village but is unique in still having a small field in front of it which sets off the view of The Matterhorn in spectacular fashion.
