About this property

Luxury Self Catered Ski Chalet-Swimming Pool-Hot Tubs-Sauna- Great Snow record

Newly refurbished high quality fittings and decor. Fantastic fitted kitchen & luxury bathrooms, extra long 2 metre beds etc. Chalet Sapiniere is just 400m from the pistes and village centre. In the morning the cable car, ESF Office and pistes are just a 5 minute walk. You can leave your equipment in the ski store in the rental shop in the village at the end of the day. You can then wander back to the chalet without struggling in heavy boots and having to carry your skis and poles. You might even be tempted to drop into the Timbale Bar for a bit of après ski on the way back. This is a luxury, stylish chalet with a high spec. It has a mixture of traditional and modern décor, with aged wood panelling and smooth plaster finishes. It has a new open plan kitchen with brand new appliances and the spacious living and dining room has large picture windows and sliding doors onto the elevated terrace and balcony. The living room has a wood burner and plenty of comfy seating. During the day, sunlight streams in through the south facing windows and patio doors giving a tremendous feeling of light and space.
It has amazing facilities for a self catering chalet with access to a beautiful SHARED Indoor Swimming Pool, Jacuzzi and Fitness Suite. Also a large games room with table tennis and table football.

Champagny Village: Champagny is an authentic mountain village with a character that still reflects its ancient farming origins. Tiny paths link old farms and chalets in a village where traditional Savoie life and modern tourism mesh seamlessly together. The village has a lively atmosphere with shops, bars & restaurants within easy walking distance.

Skiing & Boarding at Champagny: A cable-car whisks skiers to the Champagny ski area (2000m) in just 7 minutes which is where you’ll find the nursery slopes. Three brilliant long blue runs are great to learn on and progress to while advanced skiers can zip on to the superb off piste either side. You have a choice of two red runs to take you back to the village at the end of the day. Champagny offers direct access into La Plagne, but is less busy, so is much quieter and more pleasant, especially during peak weeks.

Skiing & Boarding at La Plagne: The whole ski area covers 210km of finely groomed pistes in one of the biggest interlinked ski areas in Europe. With over 100 blue and red runs to cruise down, most skiers and boarders can travel vast distances around the 11 villages. Some very long black runs descend the Bellecote Glacier (3250m) both on and off piste, into the pretty tree lined valley of Montchavin. There are also numerous mogul fields in the area and a board park in 'Plagne Soleil'.

Lovely chalet
We really enjoyed our stay at Sapiniere. The views are stunning and there are open fields behind so you can get out and walk or sledge really easily. BarrelliI Ski run a group of chalets with one for the staff so you have help close by but no-one living in your chalet which is perfect. The team are relaxed and friendly. The facilities are great, more than half our party are kids so having a play area, games room and pool was brilliant. The view from the pool is amazing. It would have been handy to have a box of toys for young children and something the team could provide very easily.. The food was very good but the children’s menu was a bit basic and it would have been nice to see more fruit and veg offered with a variation on ice cream for dessert. The town is pretty and has a few nice restaurants, supermarket, chemist etc. The walk to the lift is up a steep hill. There is a series of steps at the top making it a challenge with a pushchair. There was another way but it was apparently a half hour walk rather than 15 minutes( I didn’t try it). The skiing in Champagny is great and La Plagne is vast, we didn’t get close to exploring everything. The queues for the telecasting first thing are long but even though it was half term we found the slopes not overcrowded We had a fractured wrist and this was handled super quickly and easily at the local medical centre ( X-ray, cast and out in under half an hour!). The Barelli Ski team has relationship with the ski shop next to the lift where you can leave your skis ( you would not want to get them up and down that hill). Getting 5 adults and 6 kids fitted up in this tiny shop was pretty hideous and took over 2 hours. Overall, I’d rate this Chalet very highly and we look forward to visiting again Show less

Sunny, spacious savoyarde chalet
We had an amazing stay, the skiing conditions were perfect, the Barrelli Ski staff were delightful and the food absolutely delicious! We were very well looked after, nothing was too much trouble, just don't challenge Mike to a table tennis game!! The on site facilities are amazing, in particular the swimming pool with the incredible views across the valley. The ski hire shop Barrelli Ski recommended were also very good and the free overnight equipment storage makes walking to and from the chalet a piece of cake. The walk up hill in the mornings isn't too bad either, we treated it as a gentle muscle warm up and you have a little mountain stream to keep you company. The village is nice and compact and typically French - boulangeries and local artisan shops, a lovely old church with a leaning tower and plenty of bars to choose from - although we got to like the 'Code Bar' where a lot of the locals tended to hang out. The Timbale opposite was good for live music (although we got a Queen tribute act :) !!! They weren't that bad actually! The skiing was excellent, Champagny links directly in with the La Plagne ski area and you can be in La Plagne Centre in just 20 mins (although we preferred staying over in the Champagny sector as it was a lot less busy). You can also be at the top of the Roche de Mio by catching just 4 lifts starting from Champagny village. We felt it was very well conected and the nursary slopes for the little'uns well placed at the top of the gondola. Our kids also loved Marie, their ESF Instructor. We have had some dodgy instructors with the ESF over the years, but when we were booking we were informed the Champagny ESF was very good. And we agree! We had a fantastic holiday and will definitely recommend staying with Barrelli Ski to our friends and family. Hope to see you next year.

Lovely Savoyard chalet with superb meals
Chalet Sapiniere is part of a small group of associated chalets which can be combined to provide extra accommodation if needed, as we did. Our group of 13 couldn't fit Sapiniere with the sleeping arrangements we required, but by also taking neighbouring Apartment Flocon we were very comfortable and could all fit round the table in Sapiniere for our meals. To access the skiing you have a 'warm up the muscles' walk to the gondola, picking up your hire skis, on the way, at the rental shop where you store boots and skis each day. Your lift passes are organised and waiting for you on arrival and all we had to do was add the extra insurance for slope emergencies. The food was tremendous; from hearty breakfasts to cake and tea for your return from the slopes to the superb evening meals, including very tasty alternatives for our 'veggie'. We were asked to vote for our favourite dishes at the end of our trip and the votes were fairly evenly spread! The wood burning fire in the seating area gave a cheery glow to add to the underfloor heating so toes warmed up nicely while having preprandial drinkies. Bedrooms are comfortable and having a tumble dryer and washing machine available is a useful addition. Sauna, hot tub and pool were used by some of our party and Steve tells me the 'bracing' temperature of the pool has been resolved but was great for after ski wind downs. Finally the staff. We had a warm welcome and introductions to all the 'saisoner/res'. Josh was running the show and nothing was too much trouble. The chefs, Torrie and Kiki produced the wonderful meals and cakes including my birthday cake! Bravo. This was our second visit to the complex and is not the last as we have booked again for next season!’

Why they chose this property

Chalet Sapiniere is in a beautiful situation in a real French village - a fantastic ski resort in its own right with links to practically unlimited skiing and snowboarding. It has a fast, modern lift system and reasonable ski pass prices and various lesson and ski pass deals. In essence, we fell in love with Champagny because it has the best of both worlds - a fantastic ski area but also a natural charm and ambience which makes it different to many mass marketed more touristy French resorts.

What makes this property unique

It is in a stunning setting with beautiful views from the chalet and indoor swimming pool which both look across to the snowy mountains of Courchevel. We are a small family business with nearly 30yrs knowledge and experience, so we really feel we have finely honed our product over many years. Our top priority is providing high quality food and service at very affordable prices.
