Charmille, sleeps 12-14, Meribel
A comfortable chalet with a hot tub located in Les Allues
Overview
This chalet is one of a collection in the lovely village of Meribel Les Allues. Whilst not part of the main resort of Meribel itself, the village does have good ski access thanks to the Olympic gondola and the operator lays on a driver service that is at your beck and call until 1am in the morning. Making these chalets arguably more convenient than some of the chalets in Meribel centre in spite of their peripheral location.
Chalet Charmille is situated in a great location just a few minutes’ walk to the Olympic gondola, giving skiers fast access to the 600km of pistes on offer. The small selection of shops and bars in Les Allues are also within easy reach.
It comprises 5 en suite bedrooms. Upstairs there are 2 spacious bedrooms which can sleep up to 4 each with en-suite bathrooms and their own balconies. Downstairs the twin bedrooms are a good size with their own en-suite shower rooms. The chalet has an outdoor hot tub too.
*Please note, for the 20/21 season this chalet is also available on a self-catered basis.

In all our chalets, early teas can be provided (served from 6pm onwards) for young children (under 12’s).
This is a simpler 2 course menu designed with youngsters in mind. If your kids have any strong dislikes, be sure to let us know in advance too!
You can choose to have an earlier family friendly dinner all together, we will provide a simpler style of the ‘adult menu’ for children in the group or you can choose a separate tea-time for the children and dinner for the adults later. Prior to your holiday we will gather this information and find out if you prefer early teas, or all to eat together & we will be prepared for your arrival.
Special Dietary requirements: Please note, we provide a varied set menu throughout the week with the aim of catering for the whole chalet. Whilst we try to be flexible with reasonable dietary requests, it is difficult for our Chalet Hosts to accommodate & run several different menus at the same time, if there are a lot of varying dietary requirements within the group.
Please therefore, advise us in advance if you have a specific allergy & need to avoid gluten, dairy or lactose, and we will make adaptations to our daily set menu, so these can be avoided.
