Guest access
Your access to the Chalet is private, directly from the road, either via its front door (10 steps from the drive down to the garden) or through the garage door (at road level, so very convenient when it snows).

You can use all the chalet, the garage and parking spaces, utility room, and all of its surrounding garden.

Other things to note
At the right time of the year you can pick/cut your own fruit in the garden; red currants, raspberries, blackberries, hazelnuts, quinces, crab apples, herbs and lavender. Next door also cherries, plums, apricots, blackcurrants, apples, pears, gooseberries and wild strawberries.

During the winter you'll be pleased to know that we do get lots of snow, and heavy snow some years, so you will need appropriate clothing and footwear, and snow chains for your car (obligatory to have onboard during the winter).
You should factor in additional time for your journey when snow is forecast.
Public services do clear all the roads very well and frequently, starting with main roads. Then they proceed to clean smaller roads. There is one car length (4 metres) of private parking to access the garage that public services don't clear. A private service clears this small area, but with heavy snow or very early in the morning it may not always be free.

Car charging only by pre-agreement and agreed payment.

Neighborhood highlights

Situated in the Serre Chevalier Vallée, France very close to an historic chapel (restored in 2018) that supposedly dates to 1100s, and to a church from the 1700s. Free weekly guided visits to these and other places of interest.

Downhill ski slopes start in the next village, Chantemerle, connected by the navette bus service (free for skiers, 5 minutes ride).
Cross country skiing starts 2 villages away, Villeneuve ( 10 minutes ride), or a car drive to other cross country centres (Villard Saint Pancras, La Vachette).
Thermal baths are in Monetier, swimming pools in Briançon, Chantemerle and Villeneuve and many other sports in the Serre Chevalier valley (horse riding, climbing, go-karts, mountain bike, BMX).
There is a local grocery that sells just about everything, only 5 minutes walk from the house, open every day of the week. Otherwise 10 minutes drive to Briançon, where there are many shops and supermarkets, and a weekly grocery market.
