Serviced Apartments in Les Houches

This ski resort is very near to Chamonix, but tends to be less crowded and has some excellent skiing, so if you prefer a more countryside feel, a holiday rental in Les Houches could well be just what you are looking for. As well as the usual assortment of graded runs, there is an area put aside for very tiny children just starting out, called Jardin du Neige (snow garden) as well as cross country skiing, for those who don’t fancy the slopes.

This resort is winter-only for skiing, but there are still plenty of things to do in the summer. If you are staying in a Les Houches apartment rental for the skiing though, the weather is not that vital as there are many runs where there are artificial snow machines, so there will always be runs open. The runs themselves are very attractive, being down through the trees and giving spectacular views of Mont Blanc. Be careful to watch where you are going – you don’t want to spend your holiday in a Les Houches serviced residence with your leg in plaster!

There are many surprising sides to Les Houches – a holiday let here could bring you into close contact with some of the greatest brains in science as the village is host to a famous physics summer school. It is also the start and finish line of the Tour de Mont Blanc, a walk around the mountain which takes the participants through France, Italy and Switzerland and takes up to ten days to complete. Perhaps best to just watch them limp home from the comfort of a Les Houches aparthotel window!

Despite being a popular ski resort, Les Houches is relatively unspoiled, with architecture from the nineteenth century in every street. If you stay in your Les Houches short stay apartment in a quiet part of the season, you will feel that you are really part of a bygone civilisation, with the mountain seasons rolling slowly by. While enjoying a holiday in a serviced apartment in Les Houches, you must make time to visit the animal park in Coupeau, on the sunny side of the valley. There are llamas there as well as the indigenous deer, sheep and goats but the stars of the show have to be the endearing marmots, who love to play for the visitors in their enclosure. You don’t have to have children staying with you in your Les Houches self-catered apartment to enjoy the park – go and see it, you know you want to!
