About this property

Charming chalet with magnificent views of the castle, mountains and Lake Annecy.

An exceptional chalet with its panoramic view of the castle, lake and mountains.
The place is ideal for soothing, recharging one's batteries and spending a great holiday with family or friends!
Clear view and very good sun exposure.
10 mins by car from the center of Annecy (8km), 10 mins walk from the beach, 5 mins walk from the heart of the village of Menthon St Bernard and all its amenities.
Quiet environment, in a privileged setting which remains close to all amenities.
An attractive region due to the many possible activities and leisure activities (tourism, nautical activities around Lake Annecy, sporting activities, cultural activities, etc.).
Access to 10 minutes by car from downtown Annecy, the old town, sometimes nicknamed the 'Venice of the Alps' and its shops.
All the possibilities and diversity of mountain activities in Haute-Savoie in winter and summer.

Ideally located in the heart of the Alps (Geneva 45 mins drive, Chamonix and Megève 1 hour), our chalet is also close to all amenities.
You will be a stone's throw from the village of Menthon-Saint-Bernard, its beach and its activities.
Nature and the great outdoors are near the chalet.

You will find near a pebble beach and multiple sporting activities: sailing boat, windsurfing, water skiing, wakeboarding, scuba diving, fishing, golf (10 minutes from Talloires and 10km from Giez), horse riding, summer tobogganing, tennis, hiking, mountain biking, cycling (cycle track at 1 km; direction Aravis, or direction Annecy with lake shore extension / Faverges / Ugine).

For the winter season: alpine skiing, snow boarding, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling and why not dog sled rides!
The most beautiful ski resorts in the region, such as Grand Bornand and La Clusaz, are barely 25 km away (30 minutes by car).

Restaurants in the immediate vicinity in Menthon St Bernard (The unexpected, the confidential, the chalet du port, the Palace ...).
If you are a fan of great regional gastronomy, you will find in the surroundings establishments which figure prominently in the Michelin guide, such as La Nouvelle Maison by Marc Veyrat in Veyrier-du-Lac or L'Auberge du Père Bise, in the splendid Bay of Talloires or the refined gastronomy of the Palace in Menthon St Bernard.

You can practice a paragliding flight from the beautiful view of the lake from 'Col de la Forclaz'.
In August, the Lake Festival in Annecy and its fireworks, world-renowned pyrotechnic show in Talloires and even the famous 'sound and light' shows at Menthon St Bernard Castle in summer.
In winter we are a few kilometers from the ski resorts of La Clusaz and Le Grand-Bornand.

A huge green and wooded lot available around the chalet.
The chalet combines comfort, tradition and modernity with all the essential amenities for a successful stay (fully equipped kitchen, hi-tech audio and hi-fi equipment, fully-equipped bathroom, washing machine, etc.)

Comfortable chalet In spectacular setting
The chalet is situated on a very quiet road with spectacular views of the lake and mountains from the balcony. The chalet is spacious and comfortable on 2 floors. We were 6 adults staying with plenty of room however although there are 2 bathrooms ( one upstairs and one downstairs) there is only one toilet. The drive way is long and narrow and parking 3 cars on it was a bit difficult .

Best location on Lake Annecy
The chalet is a short walk up the hill from Menthon centre, literally 5 minutes. The property enjoys commanding views of the area which are breath taking and certainly well worth the walk. The chalet has a wonderful balcony which we used everyday for eating and relaxing. There are four bedrooms so plenty of room for a large family. Good off road parking which was useful as we did not have to use the car for our whole stay as there is a free bus from the village, number 60, which takes you into Annecy. I'm a keen cyclist so a large garage was really handy to store my bike. We can't fault this property, it's exactly as Alexander has published and he is always on line to answer any questions. We will be returning. Love the place.

Great House with Amazing Views
We enjoyed our stay. Highlight was the view of the mountains chateau and lake from the large balcony. Large house ideal for 5 of us Not given 5 stars as there is only one toilet. But otherwise this house is great and I would recommend

Relaxing stay
We had a great week here; we loved the huge balcony where we spent many hours taking in the views of lake, mountains, hot air balloons, paragliders etc. The house in in a quiet residential area with Chateau de Menthon st Bernard is almost directly above the terrace. The walk to the lovely local boulangerie is at least 10 minutes via a footpath downhill. Harder coming back! Mr Moine was extremely helpful and quick to respond. Mme Moine was lovely, nothing was too much trouble and this included driving to the nearest supermarket with us following behind to ensure we found it ok. The house is large , we didn’t use the downstairs at all, except one bedroom. We did find the kitchen and bathroom quite basic, could do with modernising. Same for the ground floor outside terrace. The drive is tarmac; narrow and steep. The parking area is gravel though, with a drop onto it especially hard for a low car. We drove to the beach, there’s plenty of free parking. We hired a boat on the lake, highly recommended. We took the bus to Annecy one day , the bus stop is easy to find in village centre. But the views are what we came for. Beautiful!
