Accommodation - Self-Catering Chalets, Apartments and Properties

There are numerous options for self catering in the valley. We have chosen our favourites to show you, but if none of these take your fancy or they are full, we can easily find alternative accommodation in the French Alps.

And, to avoid the nightmare of there being nothing to eat in your fridge with all the shops closed when you arrive, we can get your first shop in for you. Just tell us what you want and we'll make sure it's waiting for you when you arrive. It'll cost you just €20 plus the cost of the shopping.
