Christmas Skiing in Chamonix?
Stay Catered in our friendly ski chalet directly on the ski piste!

Christmas is a very special time of year for most people.

Nothing quite beats the joy of waking up excited on Christmas morning, having a scrumptious filling breakfast, and then being able to head out skiing - straight from the door...

Later on, you'll enjoy a fully prepared seven-course Christmas dinner which includes traditional Roast Turkey and all the trimmings: Christmas crackers, Christmas pudding, homemade mince pies... In short, all the elements that make Christmas festive!

We make chalet Maison Jaune a rather special place to spend Christmas week:
- There is a 6-foot tall real pine Christmas tree, all sparkling with fairy lights, baubles and other decorations...
- The mantlepiece over the open log fire has decorations and candles on it...
- The shutters on the house have lush green and red decorations...
- and, of course, the highlight of Christmas day is the sumptuous seven-course Christmas dinner.
