Gorgeously charming original chalet from 1825. Beautiful detail. Felt a privilege to stay here, like being in a living museum. The chalet is comfortable with plenty of space, de facto 2 sitting rooms both with fireplace. Amazing mountain views, lovely sun set and sunrises. We brought a dog, Heidi was flexible about that. We came by train, and got a taxi up the hill with our luggage which i would recommend ( dont try bringing heavy luggage up the hill by foot, its too steep). Was perfectly accessible, as la barboleuse train station is a 3 minute drive away. The chalet is accurate in description of ski in/ out, its literally next to the slope. And overall the chalet is much more special and beautiful than described. Yes its true, it does not have bling-bling mod cons that you can find in some glitzy chalets, but it has so so much more with all the interesting original features - and it is cosy and comfortable - an absolute gem. So rare to find such a beautifully preserved historic chalet, a real privilege to be able to stay here. And heidi the host is lovely and friendly too. Thank you.
