Le lodge de l'alpage

Room by room

• ✓
  The living area — 30 m²

  Read on

  You walk in and take in the whole apartment at a glance: thirty square metres in one open space, with the entrance on one side, the kitchen along the wall, the table in the middle and the lounge facing the picture window. No corridor, no wasted corner — which is why a two-bedroom apartment of seventy square metres feels bigger than it is.

  The kitchen is fully equipped and recent: oven, induction hob, microwave, dishwasher, and everything you need to really cook, not just reheat. The table seats six without anyone having to push their chair back against the wall. In the evening the lounge turns towards the screen; you can also stream whatever you like from an iPhone, iPad or Mac, thanks to AirPlay.

  The separate toilet

  Read on

  The toilet is separate from the two bathrooms: with six of you, one person can shower while another uses it, and mornings run smoothly without queuing.

• ✓
  The utility room

  Read on

  A proper utility room, with a separate washing machine and tumble dryer and space to put things down. It's the kind of room nobody mentions until they've spent a week with children and soaking-wet ski suits — and the kind everyone remembers afterwards.

• ✓
  The mountain nook — 6 m²

  Read on

  Six square metres that children claim within ten seconds. The two bunk beds are two metres long, not one metre eighty: a teenager can sleep without bending their knees. The bottom bunk is set into a wooden alcove with its own reading light: a real den, right down to the fir-tree wallpaper.

  Next to it, a wardrobe means their things can be put away somewhere other than the living room.

• ✓
  The double bedroom — 13 m²

  Read on

  A 160 × 200 bed, a mountain mural covering the whole wall and — rare in a two-bedroom apartment — a real desk, with its chair, set in front of the picture window. Not a shelf in a corner: a table you can work at all day long, with the forest opposite.

  This is the room to take if you're coming to work remotely for a week in January.

• ✓
  The bathroom

  Read on

  Walk-in shower, dark tiles, washbasin on a wooden unit: the bathroom has the same standard of finish as the rest of the apartment.

• ✓
  The en-suite double bedroom — 11 m²

  Read on

  The second bedroom has its own shower room, which makes all the difference when two couples travel together: nobody has to cross the apartment in a bathrobe. Pale wood panelling, a clothes rail rather than a wardrobe, and the same picture window onto the balcony.

• ✓
  The shower room

  Read on

  The more striking of the two bathrooms: black, wood and glass, with an open shelf for your things. It is reserved for the adjoining bedroom.

• ✓
  The balcony

  Read on

  The wooden balcony runs the full length of the façade, with a table for six and a sun lounger. In front of it lie the birch wood and a stream you can hear from the table. It's where you have breakfast in the sun and dinner late into the evening in July.

  Together with the living area, it is this apartment's great asset.

The same stay, elsewhere

And both together

Both apartments are in the same building, Le lodge de l’alpage directly below Les cimes de l’alpage: together they sleep sixteen, with covered parking for four cars.
