Rocalillie Lodge

For the ultimate in pampering, head to the thermal centre at St Gervais, where you can relax in the indoor and outdoor baths or enjoy a massage.

Whatever time of the year you visit, there's plenty to keep you busy in this beautiful area.

About the property ...

There is plenty of space for up to 14 guests at this large three-storey chalet, with seven elegant en suite bedrooms.

As you enter the house on the ground floor there's a ski room with a heated boot rack off to the right, and a large garage to the left. Before you is the stunning open plan living area. After a wonderful day in the mountains, the huge soft sofas are the perfect place to get together in front of the log-burning stove, or step out on to the pool terrace to catch the last of the sun, or maybe watch for shooting stars. Alternatively, you might prefer to relax in the hot tub.

The contemporary kitchen has everything you need to cook for a crowd, including a large hob, traditional ovens and a steam oven, a dishwasher, wine cooler and a boiling water tap. And with a large central island, there is plenty of room for several cooks to share the work. Enjoy your meal at the large dining table with views of the terrace and pool.

How about a film after dinner? There are three more huge sofas to sink into in the cinema room!

There's also a utility room on this floor with a washing machine and dryer.

You'll find five of the bedrooms on the first floor - they are all spacious doubles with doors to a balcony as well as seating, dressing areas and bathrooms with double sinks as well as a walk-in shower and a separate bath.

The final two bedrooms are up on the top floor, where the views are even better! These spacious rooms have sofas in front of sliding doors onto the balcony, large bathrooms with double sinks, freestanding baths and separate showers, and WCs.

All of the bedrooms have elegant lighting, televisions, soft carpets and top quality bed linen - you can't fail to get a great night's sleep!

About the area ...

Saint Gervais, nearby Combloux and Megève, are part of the Évasion Mont-Blanc ski area, and it's a 30-minute drive to the Espace Diamant, which comprises Praz-sur-Arly, Bellecombe, Crest-Volant, Flumet, ad Saisies. This area played host to the winter Olympics in 1992.

Experienced skiers looking for some stunning night skiing should head for the Vallée Blanche - do hire a guide for this 23km run which, with a 2,000m drop, will take you from the Aiguille du Midi to the Mer de Glace, an almost surreal experience under a full moon.

For a change from skiing, why not try dog-sledding or snow-shoe walking, which are both available within a short drive of Chalet Les Vosnes. For a little more adventure, why not try ice climbing, via ferrata or paragliding.

In the summer, the mountains become the domain of walkers and cyclists. There's so much to see in this varied landscape, explore the Argentière glacier or perhaps the Baroque footpath, a 20km trail from Combloux to Les Contamines-Montjoie, which takes you past some of the area's finest baroque buildings. Look out for marmots along the way!

Fancy a swim? Head for Lac de Passy where you can relax in the pure waters fed by mountain streams surrounded by wildflowers and stunning views of Mont Blanc. Take a picnic and relax while the kids enjoy the great play area. There's also a treetop adventure course, pedalos and mini-golf as well as windsurfing, paddle boarding and fishing - it's a great family day out.

And at the end of an exhilarating day, return to soak in your private pool or hot tub at Rocalillie Lodge, enjoy the sunset from the terrace or get together on the cosy sofas and play your next mountain adventure.
