Chalet Bleu Morillon Stunning winter views and the bubbly hot tub

Chalet Bleu in Morillon is a charming 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom chalet, sleeping 10 guests.  Set in 800m2 of private flat gardens, guests can enjoy their very own hot tub with stunning views from every side of the chalet.  Across the 2-floors, the chalet provides approximately 163m2 (25m2 below 1.8m2 high) of space and comfort. Traditional features such as the log burner with red brick surrounds and the cast iron range cooker combine perfectly with the comfortable sofas and stylish bathrooms.  The unique interior charm provides an original and cheerful choice for your year-round holiday. 

The glorious open-plan living and dining room with wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors is a triumph of design; natural surrounds becoming an extension of the chalet’s interior.

Chalet Bleu is superbly located a mere 2-minute drive or easy 10 minute walk from the centre of Morillon. And with the free and regular ski bus service to both Morillon and Samoëns stopping just at the bottom of the lane 150m away, it is your ideal winter or summer holiday home away from home.

Description

description

A bright blue chalet with catslide roof set in the French countryside. Chalet Bleu is indeed unique, something you notice the moment you arrive via a lane accessed from the road into Morillon.

Step inside to a perfect mix of cottage charm and modern comfort. To your right a hallway leads to the first of four spacious and well-appointed bedrooms. A large closet housing the separate washer and dryer is also in the hall. In addition it is fitted with ski boot rack and storage shelves, custom-made by the owner. Ahead of you the glorious open-plan living, and dining room is a major highlight. Surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass, this lovely space affords stunning views down the valley to the Pic de Marcelly, and in the warmer months can be opened to provide access to the chalet’s garden.

In the winter, relax around the log burner in one of three large, comfortable sofas. A TV, DVD player and games console are provided for your entertainment, along with a selection of DVDs and games, including dance mat and karaoke mics!  There is also a large selection of books, board games and puzzles, plus Wi-Fi internet.

The kitchen, also on the ground floor, is a lovely mix of old and new. The traditional cast iron, wood burning stove and hotplate combines with charming wooden cabinets, stylish wall tiles and a sleek granite work surface, that doubles as a breakfast bar. The kitchen comes equipped with additional electric oven and 4-burner gas hob, full-size fridge freezer, dishwasher, microwave, food processor, and all the bakeware and crockery/serving dishes and glassware you could possibly need. Coffee lovers are spoilt for choice too, with Nespresso machine, stovetop Italian cafetiere and Krups coffee maker all at your disposal. And if you’d like to try your hand at some traditional Savoyard fare of an evening, there is also a raclette machine and two fondue sets.

Dine with a view inside or step out onto your south-facing deck area, equipped with outdoor dining table and chairs. This is also where you will find your hot tub! An additional picnic bench and BBQ on the northern side of the chalet provide another space to dine al fresco. Or simply enjoy the 800m2 of gardens, the glorious outlook providing sunshine all-day long.

Chalet Bleu is a lovely choice for your year-round holidays to the Alps. Much loved by its owners, this charming accommodation offers you a truly warm, home-stay feel.

Location

location

Chalet Bleu sits at the end of a lane, accessible from the main road into Morillon. With only one neighbour to the south, the chalet is otherwise completely surrounded by country pastures, yet it’s conveniently located a comfortable 10 minute walk or mere 2-minute drive from the centre of Morillon. A free and regular ski bus, which services both Morillon and Samoëns’ gondolas, departs from the end of the drive, providing you quick and easy access to the vast Grand Massif ski domain. The Samoëns gondola is of course open in the summer months too for hikers and mountain bikers.

In the warmer months, simply walk out your front door, cross the field and join the pleasant riverside hiking trails. Equally enjoyable on a mountain bike, the trails will lead you to either the private, peaceful Crystal Lake, or the very popular Lac Bleu. Here, you will find a designated swimming area, adventure park, obstacle course, horse riding, tennis courts, kids inflatable park, and beach volleyball. There is also the lovely lakeside La Covagne restaurant, which is open in winter too!

There are several other bars & restaurants, sports shops, a pharmacy, tabac, small supermarket, bakery & great weekly market to be enjoyed in Morillon. Or continue to Samoëns, approximately a 5-7-minute drive away.

Reviews

My family and I (6 adults, 3 children and a baby) had a wonderful week in this friendly chalet which is perfectly suited to families. It is very well equipped: kitchen utensils and dishes, TV, orange internet box, games console, 3 sofas, 6-seater jacuzzi, 3 toilets and bathroom/shower, etc. The living room is very cosy and offers a nice view thanks to the large windows. There are nice bedrooms with good bedding. The wood burning stove and its warmth gives a very cosy atmosphere on cold winter evenings. Secure exterior with a fence, parking for cars (*4). Megane (the person who manages the cottage) was very helpful and made herself 100% available when we needed advice, help. She even came to check the condition of the hot tub (water quality test, filling, etc) during our stay. I would recommend this chalet for the quality of its services as a whole.

Charles and family, Chalet Bleu, Christmas 2022

Excellent stay in this magnificent chalet. Everything was perfect: ideal location for discovering the Giffre Valley and the Lac Bleu, little touches on our arrival, comfort, good bedding, well-equipped kitchen, the hot tub, the calm and charm of this chalet make for an excellent holiday. Excellent communication with the hosts and correspondents on site. We recommend this chalet without hesitation.

Lefevre Family, Chalet Bleu, August 2022

Chalet Bleu is a lovely property with everything you could possibly need. The outdoor space was perfect for our needs as was the hot-tub which was actually cooler than the outdoor temperature which was perfect. The property managers were excellent and all in all we had an awesome two weeks in a beautiful part of the world.

Moody Family, Chalet Bleu, July/August 2022

Superb chalet, comfortable and more. Cosy, warm, bright, the view of the mountains are very pleasant. A region full of activities - pure happiness! The hot tub is the cherry on the cake!

Sophie and Family, Chalet Bleu, July 2021

Chalet of high quality, the beds are comfortable and the chalet is well equipped. We particularly enjoyed the fireplace! Thank you to the managers of the chalet for their help.

Le Gall family, Chalet Bleu, March 2021

Very pleasant chalet with a magnificent view of the mountains. A few kilometres from the Cirque du Fer à Cheval for beautiful hikes. The hot tub is a real plus for the end of the day. Very good stay with friends.

Beauvisage, Chalet Bleu, February 2021

We spent a very nice week with our family. This chalet is very pleasant, especially when the fires are lit. Very bright and warm. The hot tub is clearly a plus and the beds are comfortable. I would recommend it!

Kauffmann, Chalet Bleu, February 2021

About the owners

After coming to Morillon skiing with their 3 children for several years, Roy and Bev decided to find their own chalet so they could spend more time in the Giffre Valley. Since moving into the Chalet Bleu 6 years ago they have discovered the mountains and valley are as beautiful in the summer as during the ski season. The area is great for hiking, white water rafting and cycling or just sitting with a glass of bubbly taking in the mountain view from the hot tub. We particularly enjoy curling up on the sofas feeling part of the Christmas card scenery, looking out on to the 2000m Pic de Marcelly with its constantly changing colours and features.
