CHALET VIEUX PONT, VAL D’ISERE, FRANCE

Set over four generous floors, much of one being taken up with exquisite spa facilities. We’re talking an incredible indoor swimming pool and glorious steam room, so you get to unwind and recharge in most the sophisticated way.

Everything about Chalet Vieux Pont reaches the highest levels of chic – bespoke designer furniture dominate each space with unique pieces of artwork hanging from the walls, interspersed with designer lighting and object d’art. The chalet is upside down with the living room on the top floor and bedrooms below. The double height ceiling space in the living room on the upper floor is brilliant light filled space with views of the Fornet cable car, moments from the chalet.

An enormous reclaimed rustic oak dining table seating 10 is perfect for evening entertainment underneath exposed giant beams. What’s more if you fancy a game of cards, look no further as a games table for four awaits. Not to mention an utterly charming open log fireplace, the central focus of the space, oozing a warm ambience, and perfect for putting your feet up on the oversized sofas to movie watch on the large flat screen television.

Five beautiful interior designed bedrooms, sleep 10 are all en-suite with the most chic and sleek luxury bathrooms. On entrance floor site the stunning master en-suite bedroom with fabulous wrap around balcony and spectacular views. Moving down a level, three large king/twin rooms await, each with their own character. Inside one you’ll discover an antique carved door headboard and the rock face that runs along the inside of the room, for real wow factor. 

Heading down again to the lowest level, is a wonderful private bedroom with stunning views of the old bridge and a small terrace. Here you’ll find the indoor pool on this floor with a flow machine and a wonderfully relaxing steam room to banish any aching ski limbs – Chalet Vieux Pont is all about wellbeing.
