In a tranquil spot at the top of Sauze, away from the lively resort centre sits the lovely Valentin chalet. The surrounding pine forest drops away to reveal the peaks of the Milky Way ski area, which are particularly stunning at sunset. Â
Â
It's one of the most spacious chalets we have. The lounge/diner is huge with lots of exposed wooden beams and mountain artefacts to admire while you enjoy afternoon tea in a deep, comfy sofa. Prime position for a catch-up at the end of the day is in front of the large open fireplace, so grab a slice of cake early on.Â
Â
Â
Being at the top of the resort does mean a bit of a walk into town and back again, but it's well worth it for the views and the peace and quiet. There is a ski bus that runs throughout the day and taxis are available at night. Enjoy the full-on party atmosphere of Sauze as much as you like, then head back for a restful night's sleep.Â
Â
Â
It's around a 15-20 minute walk to the resort centre down a steep hill. When the snow conditions are good, you can ski to within 100m of the chalet.

Sauze d'Oulx is a traffic free resort. On arrival day, you will be met by your chalet hosts at the coach park and walk up to the equipment hire shop (approx. 5 minute walk) where you will pick up any pre-booked equipment. Afterwards, a taxi will be waiting to take you and your equipment up to the chalet. Your luggage will be delivered to the chalet up to around 2 hours after your arrival.Â
Sauze d'Oulx sits at the northern end of the huge Milky Way ski area, perched on a sunny plateau. 'Sunny Sauze' (as it's come to be known) is particularly popular with the Brits and it's not a huge surprise as the resort is big on skiing but equally big on nightlife. It's a party town that's made even better due to the legendary skiing and boarding on offer.
Â
As the gateway to some 400kms of piste, it's a magnet for skiers and boarders who also like a bit of party action as well as their time on the mountains. It's a fantastic place for intermediate and advanced skiers and boarders thanks to endless cruisy blue runs and nearly 200kms of challenging reds.
Â
Â
At night the resort really comes to life. There's a huge amount of clubs, restaurants and bars offering a little bit of everything - live music, DJ sets, dancing, all available late into the night! Come for the mountains and stay for the nightlife.Â
