Chalet Ferme Du Ciel, Flaine (Samoens), France

Ferme du Ciel is a stunning architect designed renovation of a traditional Savoyard farmhouse positioned above the award winning heritage town of Samoens. The Ferme du Ciel enjoys sensational views, and is nestled in the mountains of the Grand Massif. Close to the Grand Massif Express gondola, the chalet is ideally positioned for skiers and walkers.

Whilst the renovation has retained the Savoyard charm of the farmhouse, its large floor to ceiling windows bring the glory of the mountains into every room - it's luxurious alpine style at its best. Floors are tiled with under floor heating, traditional wood features are present throughout and the open plan design blends character with style.

The first floor main living area ensures that the glorious views can be enjoyed whilst lazing on sumptuous sofas in the stunning double height living room. The central open stone fireplace is a great place to sit around with your choice of drink in hand on those winter evenings. Alternatively, you may prefer to end your day in the Jacuzzi with a glass of champagne! For fresh air enthusiasts the views can also be enjoyed from all of the balconies and terraces.

A large wooden dining table is the focus of the dining area, where many sociable hours can be whiled away whilst enjoying the excellent cuisine. There is also the sauna and the TV room with 42" plasma screen. For those who need to stay in touch with the real world, broadband Wi-Fi internet access is available. Alternatively, for restless children (or grown-up kids!) a PC and selection of games are available.

All guest accommodation is individually styled and furnished. The large luxury beds can be adapted to either generous singles or a super king-size double, and the sofa area in each room with TV, DVD and stereo system ensures you can relax at all times of day in the privacy of your own space. The great views from each of the rooms and traditional wooden features blend beautifully with the stylish furnishings. All in all - Alpine Heaven.
