About this property

A Beautiful Family Chalet And Possibly One Of Zermatt's Best Kept Secrets!

Unlike with many of the chalets in Zermatt the owners have avoided the minimal white look so that the chalet has kept its' rustic charm.

It is situated in a beautiful elevated position, with uninterrupted views of the Matterhorn, in preserved tranquil surroundings where the natural wildlife roam freely.

The chalet is just a 5 minutes walk to the main Klein Matterhorn departure station and to the centre of the village.

Access to the chalet is by its own tele cabin but it is also accessible by a well maintained footpath through a wooded area.

The chalet comprises 5 double bedrooms, 3 en-suite and 1 extra bathroom and a separate WC. All of the bathrooms were renovated in 2012. There is a 6th bedroom with a single bed for an extra guest.

The spacious lounge has a large wood-burning fireplace, comprising ample comfortable seating for 12 people, overlooking the terrace and garden with its breath taking views of the Matterhorn. It is equipped with plasma TV, DVD, CD/Radio and has a wireless internet connection.

Separated from the lounge by glass doors, the dining area has a long table that seats 12 and has a feature window overlooking the surrounding mountains and village of Zermatt. The modern kitchen adjoins the dining area.

There is also a tropicarium sauna downstairs in the chalet which is perfect therapy after a day of skiing, with its' adjoining relaxation area. Massage and reflexology can be arranged in the chalet on request.



Taxi transfer from airport to Zermatt can be arranged on request.

We are happy to organise your ski passes prior to your arrival in Zermatt. We also work with several ski schools in Zermatt and we are very happy to organise ski/snowboard instruction that best suits your needs.

For the more advanced mountaineers we can arrange mountain/ski guides for special ski trips. If you do not require instruction but would like someone with local knowledge to show you around the mountain we offer a ski guiding service.

A child-minding service is available on request.

We are here to make sure that your holiday is as relaxing and stress-free as possible. If there is anything that you need, just ask and we will do everything we can to help.

Amazing!!!
Our stay here was nothing short of amazing. From the view of the Matterhorn in the back yard, to the cleanliness and comfort of the home, we couldn't have hoped for a better experience. Stuart and Lesley made it so easy to get settled in by meeting us at the train station when we arrived and helping us get all of our luggage to the house. Their hospitality was outstanding! The home itself is well stocked with everything needed to enjoy vacation. We ended up cooking at the home quite a bit and the kitchen had everything we were looking for. It was wonderful having the ability to do laundry as well. Stuart helped us book a paragliding tour, which was incredible! In the middle of our stay, the house was cleaned, linens refreshed, and toiletries resupplied. I cannot say enough good things about staying at this Chalet. The private cable car was perfect, the views couldn't be beat and the town of Zermatt itself is a breathtaking, beautiful place to visit. We are so glad we chose Zermatt and especially glad we chose Zermatt Apartment rentals for our stay. Lesley and Stuart were so helpful and were great at communicating with us, even months before our trip to make sure our holiday would be wonderful, and it truly was! If you are thinking of staying here, book it fast before someone else does! I give it my highest possible recommendation for anyone looking to rent a family sized home in Zermatt!
