Neilson Chalet Montagnettes II (Belle Plagne)

The Chalet Montagnettes II (just like its sister chalet, Montagnettes I) is ideal for small groups of friends or a couple of families looking for a cosy and convenient base for your ski holiday. The traditional style lends itself to a warm and home-from-home atmosphere from the moment you walk in.

The lounge/diner is the real heart of this apartment-style chalet with its open fireplace warming the soul as much as the body, and the balcony which has commanding views of the surrounding peaks. Kick back with a warming drink and a slice of freshly-baked cake while you reflect on the (hopefully) excellent day you've just had on the slopes.

Location wise, you're only 50m to the nearest slope which is a blue run, so even relatively new skiers and boarders can get going quickly. The resort centre with its good selection of shops and bars is an easy five minute walk thanks to the covered walkways in Belle Plagne. You'll find the equipment hire shop in the resort centre too, making for a really convenient stay.

La Plagne forms one half of the 425km playground which is the Paradiski area. It really is one of the best ski areas in the world, regularly playing host to speed skiing, freeriding, freestyle and world cup events.

The terrain is varied, high and seemingly endless. The La Plagne half of the area is over 200km in itself so unless you're a hardcore mile-muncher, the local lift pass is enough. That said, it's definitely worth a trip over to Les Arcs at least once during your stay just for the cable car ride; the double-decker Vallandry Express is not to be missed!

Being part of apartment complex means you'll have access to the small shared spa area a couple of time throughout the week. It's a lovely place to unwind after hitting the slopes all day. Soak in the wooden barrel hot tub, relax in the steam room and sauna or just truly chill out in the space.

The spa is open between 4 and 8 pm and costs around €7 per person for a 50-minute session. It's worth booking a slot early on in the week to avoid missing out. The whole spa area takes a maximum of 10 people and you can reserve it exclusively for your group for approximately €65. Unfortunately, children under 14 aren't allowed in the spa.

Our chalet board basis is designed for skiers and boarders. Start every morning with an extensive continental breakfast, and cooked options on most days. Your daily afternoon tea of freshly baked cakes and biscuits will be waiting for you when you come in from the slopes.

Evening meals are a three-course set-menu with regionally inspired dishes and free-flowing wine throughout the week, all followed by fresh coffee. We provide evening meals on six nights a week leaving you free to head out and explore the resort on one evening.

Split over three floors, the five bedrooms are all light and simply furnished with plenty of character and comfortable beds. You'll also find luxurious Temple Spa toiletries in each bathroom. There's a club double room with its own ensuite bath and wc, and a club twin room with a shared separate shower and wc across the corridor on the ground floor.

The first floor has an economy single with bunk beds recommended for one adult or two children. This room shares a bathroom with the ground floor. The second floor has two club twin rooms‚ both with an ensuite shower but sharing a separate wc.

Don’t forget that you get free guiding and coaching throughout the week from fully qualified ski and board instructors with our Mountain Expert service.

Designed for confident blue and red-run skiers and snowboarders, they'll show you around the mountain on free guiding sessions, and even offer free coaching sessions to help you become a more confident skier or snowboarder.

There are at least three sessions a week and we guarantee each guest at least two sessions a week. Your hosts will explain how it works when you get there.
