Stepping back in Time in a Charming Way
We had the privilege of staying in this gorgeous tiny chalet, located in a tranquil environment, for nine nights and loved every minute of the experience. Built originally in 1762, walking into this chalet is like stepping back in time in a charming way. As relatively tall individuals, we had to duck to pass through the main doorway (and hopefully learn not to bump our heads a second time). It might be a little challenging to stand up straight downstairs if you are very tall, given the low ceiling, but at 185 cm, it was no problem for my husband. The place was exceptionally well equipped to cook meals, including various condiments, and then sit outside in the enormous garden, savouring magnificent views of the spectacular glaciers and towering mountains, including Mont Blanc. Although tiny, there was surprisingly ample storage for our personal belongings, making our stay very comfortable. The chalet was within an easy walk of local bus stops, enabling us to travel into the bustling town of Chamonix or to the supermarket in Les Houches. Laila was the perfect host, making us feel extremely welcome and ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our stay. We would highly recommend this genuinely unique accommodation!
