“We are seeing increased demand for larger self-catered properties as families holiday together. As well as large 4-bedroom apartments in new additions in Megève, Valmorel and Les 2 Alpes, we’ve added a range of new self-catered chalets. These have beautiful open plan living and dining spaces where families can get together after a busy ski day to share experiences, relax and eat together (some of them even have private outdoor hot tubs too!).” Alison Willis, General Manager.
