Chalet Melona in Courchevel 1850, France

A modern rustic bolthole close to both the slopes and the lively town of Courchevel 1850, the chalet is a gem of a property. Spread out over 5 levels with 837sqm of space, this luxury ski chalet is big enough to sleep up to 14 guests, offering something for everyone in your party. The airy, open-plan living spaces are perfect for gatherings with friends, or games with family, and the frankly spectacular views make this a really special place to relax with the papers, a bottle of wine and good friends. The chalet is perfectly placed to make the most of all this wonderful skiing area has to offer, being only seconds from the snow and also close to all of the local bars, restaurants and boutique shops. For those with more than skiing on the agenda, the chalet boasts a pretty amazing private spa, with a stunning swimming pool, wellness area, Hammam, sauna and an outdoor Nordic bath. It’s a wonderful place to relax after an afternoon on the slopes, soothing any aches and pains, but you could easily spend all day here, being pampered and restoring mind, body and soul. A snooker table, as well as games room with billiards, table football and a bar, provides somewhere to kick back with friends (and a little light competition!), perfect for both kids and big kids alike. At the end of each evening, having enjoyed fine foods and wines, and perhaps taken the night air on one of the spacious outdoor balconies, you’ll retire to luxury bedrooms with heavy cotton sheets, only the featheriest of duvets and plenty of cushions and throws to make you cosy as you drift off to sleep. You’ll want to be well rested for tomorrow’s adventures and there are plenty of adventures to be had at the property.
