We've had a wonderful holiday. The snow conditions were fantastic with lots of new snow, however what made it special was the experience. Fleur, is a fantastic chalet host ... and the cakes are to die for - especially the chocolate Guinness loaf! She chatted happily and is friendly without being intrusive, respecting your space and holiday. The chalet itself is roomy and beautiful, few minutes walk to the lift and as you leave all your gear at the lift station, it is easy and no problem at all. The other person who made the holiday stand out was Rob, our ski guide for 4 days (he offered an extra day due to restrictions on when the other chalet could go). Guiding is just so valuable, not only in showing you around, but he also gently pushed me into doing harder slopes than I would normally volunteer for - but only because he felt confident that my ability would match the difficulty of these runs (Tortin and Col des Mines). But that does mean that I was very tired and was happy to be back at the chalet at the end of the day being comfortable and being looked after by Fleur!

Everything from the location, pistes, snow and most of all chalet and hosting was amazing. Verbier has a small team of excellent staff.... All very willing to make your stay as perfect as possible. Fleur our chalet host was exceptional, getting to know our quirks for G & T's, lazy mornings and making every effort to make our stay as perfect as it was. The food and catering were exceptional (thank you Fleur!). Robs ski hosting managed to exhaust the most enthusiastic skier as requested (thanks Rob I owe you!). Everything was done to make us want to come back..... Which I really hope we do........

From the moment we arrived on Sunday 29 December 2013 we were made to feel both comfortable and welcome. The chalet Mont Fort is very comfortable even if the bedrooms are a little on the small side, and the lighting at times a little dim. The excellent location of the chalet makes it an ideal base for Verbier as it is so close to the Medran bubble and the main bus stop for the free bus shuttles. Fleur, the chalet host could not have been more helpful - as someone with some challenging food allergies nothing was too much trouble - she made me gluten and lactose free cakes every day, made sure I had starters and canapés that were safe to eat, and together with Will, the resort manager, make sure I had lactose free milk and butter and rice cakes, I was hugely impressed with the attention to detail and the effort made to make sure that my food was of the same quality and standard as everyone else's.

Francis was an excellent host and will clearly be successful in whatever carreer path he follows. Will was an exceptionally good guide , particularly as he had to provide a service to very high profile celebrity guests as well as to ourselves. As a somewhat nervous skier I was particularly grateful to him for the time he took to build my confidence and ensure that I was able to enjoy what would normally be challenging skiing for me. As a result I was able to progress significantly and to ski routes that I would formerly have avoided
