Tailor-Made Luxury Holidays
The Alps are a beautiful place to spend a summer holiday, with sunny warm weather, incredible scenery and an action packed events calendar from June to September, there is something for everyone.
Summer in the Alps is all about options. Blissfully hot weather, longer days, and warmer nights give birth to a cornucopia of sporting, mountain, leisure and cultural activities. There is rock climbing and via ferrata in abundance offering challenges on rocky mountain faces or very family friendly walls to get you started. You can choose to swim in freshwater alpine lakes, you can practice yoga on mountain peaks or horse ride along flowing rivers before playing tennis, training for triathlons, trying out SUP, or parapenting across the mountain vista.
In Morzine there is an open air Olympic-sized swimming pool, a skate park, volleyball courts, tennis courts and infinite numbers of wonderful walking trails, through forests, in valleys, up mountains and summiting any number of local peaks. Culturally there are many festivals and activities in resort where you can learn about the local culture, enjoy live music such as Fête de la Musique, lose yourself in gorgeous food markets or visit during annual events such as the popular Harley Days.
From Morzine it is easy to day-trip; to Italy for lunch, or Annecy for some historic culture or perhaps Chamonix to visit Mont Blanc. The activities and possibilities are as varied and ever-changing as the colour palette of mountain flowers that bloom and fade on a never ending cycle throughout the summer months.
Our team of specialist travel consultants are ready to start planning your next holiday — get in touch today.
The properties in our Exclusive Collection are quite simply some of the very best that you will find anywhere in the Alps. They are incredibly spacious — typically in excess of 700m2 with many much larger than this — and boast the most amazing private facilities. Their interiors have been crafted by the world’s leading interior designers with exquisite furnishings used throughout. Put simply, these are exceptional, world class, private residences.
What Makes Us Different?
OUR PROPERTIES
All of our chalets and apartments are exceptional — it really is a hand-picked collection of the best properties in our resorts. With many of the properties we have been actively involved in the development with the owner from the outset, meaning the property has been tailored to our clients requirements. The portfolio now includes luxury self-catered chalets and apartments which will suit those looking for flexibility in their holiday as well as luxury catered chalets with a full service team. Our Exclusive Collection showcases some of the very finest properties in the Alps — these are incredible, world class properties, and it is a privilege to be able to offer them to our guests.
OUR SIGNATURE EXPERIENCES
Anyone in hospitality will want their service to shine, but beyond the basics, we have created a number of ‘signature experiences’ which we believe make our holidays truly special. We wanted to elevate our dining experiences beyond that of a typical chalet company and the pinnacle of that is Kaiseki, our showpiece Japanese fine dining restaurant experience. We are also proud of our in-house spa partnership with Bamford — we are the only company in the world to offer their treatment menu in a private property — and given the incredible private spas featuring in many of the chalets, this is an incredible coup for guests choosing to stay with us.
TRUSTED AND PROFESSIONAL
We have been in business since 2011 and work with some of the world’s leading travel brands. As we operate the physical property, we are not exposed to the same risks as a conventional tour operator who is reliant on re-selling third party products. We are also fully registered in both the UK and France and are proud to say that all our seasonal staff are employed on French contracts on terms which fully embrace EU working directives. This may sound unimportant, but these are the fundamentals on which your holiday is built. When you book with us, you know we will be there to deliver your holiday, with well treated staff who can then focus on making sure you have a great time.
