Just past the small local chapel lies the magical 17th century Ferme de Moudon. Sleeping up to ten guests in en-suite twin and double bedrooms, this is an intensely private and discreet location, yet it is only a three minute drive from the centre of the village. Set in its own private grounds, it is blessed with fabulous uninterrupted views. From the south-facing windows, gaze out across the valley at the pistes, powder fields and snow-clad trees.
Its chocolate-box exterior belies a chic and contemporary exterior: a finalist in the Design and Decoration Awards 2005 and featured in Channel 4’s ground breaking series ‘Grand Designs Abroad’. Ancient timbers blend effortlessly with the likes of Christian Liaigre, Kohler, Poliform and Andrew Martin; old sitting with new in this exclusive home.
Sporting a sauna, massage room and outdoor hot tub, the chalet also features two large living areas, one with a giant plasma TV and digital satellite channels, DVD and video. The impressive kitchen is open-plan and you can watch the chef prepare his masterpieces with a drink before dinner. There is also a study with telephone, fax and wireless broadband network, allowing you to keep in touch while away. Children’s toys are provided, as well as sledges, games, books, DVDs, videos and CDs. Each bedroom has feather pillows and duvets, personal bathrobes and slippers, a hairdryer, and soaps, bubble baths and shampoos in the bathrooms. Further amenities include a ski room with heated boot racks, a well-stocked wine cellar, fresh flowers and daily newspapers. A chauffeured 4 x 4 is provided for getting about.
