Chalet Perce Neige, Courchevel, France

Snow, wood, a fireplace, large spaces, are the ideals synonymous with charm and conviviality that make us dream when we imagine a mountain chalet. Combining luxury and elegance, it is the cosy atmosphere that the architect Gaston Regairaz has managed to in this magnificent chalet in Courchevel 1850.

Chalet Perce Neige, located 1300 m from the centre of the resort, in the Nogentil district with a direct exit on the Cospillot piste and 100m from the Pralong piste, is a luxury ski to ski chalet built with the greatest respect for alpine traditions.

The 685 sq. m chalet, with a contemporary and imposing architecture, can accommodate 14 people, has 6 bedrooms including 1 "Master" and 7 bathrooms on 4 levels served by an elevator. The lounge and the Master pass just above the fir trees offering a clear view with the magical impression of being in the middle of the forest, like a natural lookout.

The large opening distributed on a part of the roof facing the living room is highlighted in order to better exploit the light. The interior decoration in natural colours favours elegance in order to keep an impression of space and optimal brightness. This chalet, with its modern lines and the characteristics of the place, in order to obtain a typically mountain atmosphere, is none other than the combination of several noble materials. No shutters but heavy blackout wool curtains, with delicate chevron. Wool blankets felted the different rooms and enriched the decor with other textures.

The whole day area is thought of as an open space. Thus, the living room, kitchen and mezzanine blend together and interact in a seamless path, punctuated only by the alternation of materials: wood, iron, tiles, glass, natural and artificial light. Wood, on the other hand, shapes the passage from horizontal to vertical surfaces, sometimes covering boards to enhance windows and walls, sometimes as an element of furniture. The glass railing does not obstruct the suggestive view from top to bottom, which includes the fine and majestic lines of the crystal chandelier hanging like tree branches to illuminate the living room.

The same essence has been used in the kitchen where the marble countertop, with its light grey tonality, blends perfectly with the warmth of the wood. Great attention has been paid to textiles, velvets and furnishing accessories that reinforce the welcoming character and minimal elegance of the premises.

Among its strong features, the Perce Neige chalet, in addition to its decoration worthy of a refined jewel, enjoys its panoramic view of the mountains and offers a relaxing in the imposing overflow pool, jacuzzi, hammam and outdoor jacuzzi. In order to fully relax, a chef and a waiter are at your disposal, and this in the greatest discretion, for breakfast and dinner.They will prepare delicacies and other specialties for you in the fully equipped professional dining kitchen with a food elevator dish that runs through all the floors of the chalet.

Its architecture, its level of equipment and the services offered make Chalet Perce Neige an emblematic prestigious chalet in Courchevel 1850.

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.
