A really lovely place to stay in Morzine, in the French Alps. We started by visiting in the Summer, after a random internet search. The kids were 5 and 3 at the time, so we needed to stay somewhere which would be suitable for them. This chalet suited perfectly - fantastic food, great facilities (hot tub, garden, kids play room with toys and games, adults library with pool table, free wifi, onsite childcare available if you want it)
The owners Paul and Franscesca live next door with their 3 children, and immendiately we felt at home - the children played together, they offered advice about things to do and we felt as if we were joining a house party rather than staying in a hotel. The hospitality was warm but not intrusive.
5 years later and we're regular visitors, both in the Summer and the Winter. The ski area is massive, and many families appreciate the excellent childcare available in the chalet - though we no longer need this as the kids ski with us after lessons. Our older son was involved in the local weekly ESF ski race and was delighted to get his bronze badge on his first attempt - though Eloise, the owners' daughter and 4 days younger than him, is on the cusp of her gold badge, and ski races at a National level! The " private group" ski lessons arranged by Chilly Powder (if that makes sense - Chilly Powder hire instuctors for the week and arrange the children into group lessons) are ideal for most children, our younger son had a group of 2 children last week!
Excellent food is one of the main selling points too, with the children eating together earlier than the adults, and restaurant quality food for all, not to mention free flowing good quality wine at dinner for the adults.
We love it, and have already booked for next ski season, with the children pressing us to come in the Summer this year too!
