Overview: chalet description: Chalet Eleanor description

Chalet Eleanor has been a hugely popular property in our programme for years and now with its recent refurbishment, its popularity continues to grow. Offering huge amounts of space, this superb freestanding traditional Savoyarde chalet is situated just below Meribel's main square meaning access to the vilage centre and ski slopes is incredibly straight-forward and just literally a few minutes walk away. The open plan living/dining room has a wonderful large log fire and impressive picture windows leading to a terrace overlooking stunning views towards the Women's Olympic/World Championship downhill run and river. The bedrooms are all plenty big enough and benefit from their own private facilities with a good mix of baths and showers.

The Doran Piste is just a 4 minute walk and provides direct access to the main Chaudanne lift station and various ski school meeting points. The main square is literally a few minutes walk meaning that well known bars/restaurants such as The Pub, The Taverne and Barometer are just a stone's throw away. All in all, Eleanor provides everything that larger groups of friends or perhaps 2-3 families are looking for. Location and comfort are paramount and so often hard to fnd in chalets of this size so Chalet Eleanor really is a great choice. (See more chalets in Meribel)

Did You Know: When standing outside the beautiful front door of the Eleanor, you would never know a building was there! It is built cleverly into a steep hillside to maximise space, position and views and is accessed from what is actually the top floor...

Meals: Chalet Eleanor food & drink

We offer our properties on a flexible catering basis therefore providing our guests with as much choice as possible when choosing a fully-catered, part-catered or self-catered chalet or apartment. Your preferences will be discussed at the time of booking and a tailor-made itinerary will be costed based on your requirements.

Our chalet hosts all enjoy cooking and take pride in what they serve and whilst they are not necessarily qualified chefs, they have good experience of dinner party cooking and many of them will have attended one of the well-regarded cookery schools with whom we work closely to ensure the highest calibre of staff possible.

If choosing the fully catered or part catered option, you will be assured of good home-cooked food prepared and served by our specially selected chalet hosts. We do not offer luxury items or haute cuisine, we serve good wholesome hearty food fit for anyone after a hard day on the slopes. Menus will be varied and may include local dishes as well as the more traditional UK favourites such as roasts, lasagne or casseroles.

Our menus have been formed over many years taking into account previous guests’ likes and recommendations and whilst we believe this plan to offer excellent variety, there will be the odd occasion when a dish might not be well-received. We would ask you therefore that if you have any specific dietary requirements or a yearning for dishes in particular, you enquire before booking your holiday and provide us with as much notice as possible regarding specific diets such as vegetarian, vegan, celiac or non-dairy etc.

We update Chalet Eleanor's details often, but facilities do change. e.g. some extras listed by the supplier as "free" or included might only be for the first time you use them, or for one time per party, then charged for further use. If any specific feature is essential to your holiday, make sure you ask us to confirm the details of it before you book your holiday.

3 Valleys ski area Excellent ski schools Lively après ski

Meribel has a special place in many Brit's hearts – not simply because it’s right in the middle of the biggest ski area on Earth. A resort for long ski days, ski-boot-stomping après and cosy chalets, there’s a great deal to do and ski here, which is why many of us have been coming back for decades.

Meribel's location is tricky to beat, slap bang in the centre of the mammoth Three Valleys ski area. British made, and largely Brit run, it's a destination we flock to year after year for a homely atmosphere in a good looking resort with more than enough pistes for a week (or three). It's made up of a huddle of gorgeous hamlets, built in traditional wood and stone and surrounded by thick woodland. The main area is Meribel Centre (usually known just as Meribel). A traditional alpine village with choc-box chale...
Meribel is one of the best ski resorts to learn in. There are three beginner areas known as 'Ski Facile' (easy ski) plus great green pistes to practise on including Le Foret and Altiport. Both runs are carefully planned out so you can practice at your own pace in quiet surroundings. If you're skiing with children, there are fantastic ski schools and child-orientated areas, including animal sculptures scattered around the trees at the 'Pistes des Animaux' where children can learn about local wildlife as they e...
Whether your day on the hill leaves you wanting to relax with a vin chaud, have a pint and play pool, or party the night away, your time off the slopes can be as varied as the day spent cruising the incredible Trois Vallees. It's said that you haven't experienced après ski here (or anywhere for that matter) until you've sampled toffee vodka in Le Rond Point, which is easily one of the most famous après ski bars in the world - complete with a slide down to the toilets! Meribel's rightly famous for its nightl...
