Chalet Description

Chalet Gabrielle is one of the five chalets located in the "Chalets de Bruyeres" development in Les Menuires - the chalet is independent and can be booked on it's own as a full chalet or by the room but it can also be booked with one of the other chalets to provide a great location for groups of up to 75 people.  The chalet has two identical sisters - Chalet Flora and Chalet Estelle.  The other two chalets are different in layout - Chalet Delfina and Chalet Hayley.

The chalets are are located literally right on the doorstep of the Bruyéres gondola lift - the picture at the foot of the page was taken from the back door and you can't get much closer than this!  The gondola lift takes you straight up to the peak above the Meribel valley (Mont de la Chambre at 2850m) from where you can ski down into Val Thorens, Meribel or Les Menuires.  The development is right on the piste, and in the centre of the village for all the amenities including an ice rink and heated swimming pool just 100m away, ski school and creche next door and nightclub 200m away.

Chalet Gabrielle can accommodate up to 12 adults and 4 children in 7 bedrooms - there are twin rooms on the first two floors plus two "family suites" on the top floor.  Each suite consists of a double room and a separate cabine room for children - one is very small and has two single beds end to end and the other has two single beds at right angles.  There are different prices for the different rooms to reflect their sizes.  All rooms are en-suite and are equipped with hydro-massage showers. 

The comfortable living room has a space to sit and relax around the cosy fireplace or a dining area which is an ideal place for board games outside of meal times.  The mini-bar offers a selection of wines, beers and soft-drinks which you can enjoy on the sun terrace in the afternoons or soak away the aches and pains of a hard days skiing in the hot-tub while taking in the great view across the Val Thorens.  For those who need to keep in touch with the outside world, a free WIFI internet connection is provided in the chalet.

In the hallway at the back of the chalets there is a ski room for each chalet with heated electric boot warmers - from this corridor you take the security coded lift which takes you up and drops you on the piste at the foot of the gondola lift - access to the pistes really couldn't be easier.
