About this property

Catered Ski Chalet: 270 year old Farmhouse With Stunning Mountain Views

  • Catered skiing holidays (winter); B&B (summer).
    Demi-pension en hiver; chambres d'hôtes avec petits déjeuners en été.

    For people in search of something authentic.

    At La Portette you will find genuine hospitality in a fabulous setting.

    We are right at the heart of Paradiski with over 425kms of pistes. Situated at 1150 metres on one side of the Tarentaise Valley, the village is covered in snow from December to the end of March.

    The owners are your hosts: Andy and Liza and our daughter Camille. Our concern for the personal is reflected in your kind responses: the 5* Trip Advisor reviews and the 9.7 Review Score on Booking.com based on 165 customer comments.

    Our beautiful house dates from 1756; a 270 year old farmhouse whose original features include exposed stonework, lots of beams, old wooden doors and quirky archways. A spiral staircase leads up to the stunning top floor with a spacious open plan living and dining area. Balconies open off 2 sides of the house from picture windows with amazing views up and down the Tarentaise valley across to the distant peaks of Mont Blanc.

    The airy living room has huge, squashy sofas, a log fire and an extensive library.

    Downstairs is traditional and cosy. The family suite features a 4 poster bed hung with muslin curtains. One twin room has built in wooden cupboard beds with curtains, adored by children. Every room is furnished differently, with nice linens and a shelf – or two – of books.

    Fabulous food is served: daily breakfasts, afternoon teas, and evening meals with wine.

    SAMPLE MENUS
    Brie and Cranberry Pastry Parcels

    Boeuf Bourgignon
    Sticky Toffee Puddings

    Paradiski has some of the best skiing in Europe, with 425kms of pistes and high altitude slopes. But the purpose built resorts of the 60s and 70s that go with this aren’t for everyone. The farming hamlets of the lower slopes will offer you the charm and authenticity, the tradition and character, of the Savoie. With a free 3 minute minibus shuttle to the lifts of course!

    Here since 2003, our detailed knowledge of the area will help you make the most of your holiday. Whatever your ability, slope preference or even the weather we can advise on itineraries. And we can suggest activities for non-skiers too.

Fantastic

We were treated to a luxury skiing holiday at this fabulously quaint catered chalet. The owner was very accommodating to all of our needs and the chalet staff were first rate. The cooked breakfasts in the morning filled us up for the day until our afternoon tea and cake. The children enjoyed their dinner at 6pm which allowed for the adults to enjoy our three course meal in relative peace. Montchavin is a fabulous place to ski, which combined with La Plagne, gives enough terrain for skiers of all abilities.

Ik schrijf niet vaak een recensie, maar voor Liza en Andy maak ik met plezier een uitzondering. Wat een geweldige tijd heeft onze groep van 12 gehad in de prachtige oude boerderij, waar de foto's geen recht aan doen. Ik kan met woorden ook geen recht doen aan de gastvrijheid, flexibiliteit, gulheid en de vele andere goede eigenschappen van Liza en Andy. Met de heerlijke ontbijtjes en 3-gangenmaaltijden vol verse producten en bijvoorbeeld zelfgebakken brood (en zonder dat je hoeft na te denken over de afwas, boodschappen of de tafel dekken) is een zorgeloos verblijf in de Alpen gegarandeerd, inclusief vervoer van en naar de skilift. Prijs je gelukkig als je de kans hebt een verblijf bij hen te boeken!

Andy en Liza zijn echt geweldige hosts. We hebben niet eerder zulke gastvrije, behulpzame en lieve hosts gehad. Het huis was daarnaast heel schoon en knus. Echt een top week gehad!

Beautiful converted farmhouse in a great location.

Liza provided exceptional customer service. Unobtrusive yet always available to provide information about the entire resort. The shuttle service provided on both a daily basis and local pick up at the beginning and end of the holiday was efficient. The property was lovely with high quality catering. We loved the book collection. We would recommend this property as a ski destination.

Wonderful Chalet

A lovely homely chalet great for a few families to share, the food and drinks were plentiful and very good quality, the chalet hosts Tom and Charlotte were also pleasant and efficient. Liza and Andy , the owners couldn't do enough for us ferrying us up to the lifts and collecting us again as well as sorting out all our lift passes and ski gear. A wonderful place which we would love to return to ... if they will have us !
