Opt for luxury and indulge yourself at the Chalet Loden which accommodates 12 people.  Built in traditional style and perfectly located overlooking the village of Meribel, it's what goes on inside the chalet that makes the Loden so special. 

For a start it looks gorgeous, beautifully decorated with deep rich colours and antique furniture.  And it is wonderfully comfortable, with immense deep sofas and thick cushions to sink into.

It also has satellite TV, DVD (and good library of films), ipod and dock and a wide, south facing balcony that runs the length of the living room.  Downstairs is a large games room with a table tennis table. 

The dining area, which is set off the living room, seats 12. Here your live-in chalet staff will start your day with full breakfast and fresh pastries. When you return from the slopes they'll have prepared tea and freshly home made cakes, delivered the English newspapers and, as you move into the evening, they'll serve canapes by the fire, followed by a three course dinner with local cheeseboard to finish and superior wines.

Upstairs the luxury continues.  The bedrooms - two doubles (one en-suite) and four twins all with big deep beds with Egyptian cotton bed linen, fluffy towels and thick bathrobes.  The bathrooms are stocked with Molton Brown toiletries, and up on the top floor the three twin rooms have lovely wooden bateaux lit beds.  Most of the rooms have views to the mountains.

Please Note: There is no ski hosting available at the Chalet Loden
