Maison Bleue is a 3-bedroomed apartment, sleeping 4 + 2 under 16 (+ baby), in the village of Hauteluce (Savoie), 19km SE of Notre-Dame-de-Bellecombe, 25km NE of Albertville, 30km S of Mégève, 64km SE of Annecy (Michelin map: 523). VFB is delighted to have featured this property since 2007. Saturday arrival.
Dating from 1818 and fully renovated in 2006 to a very good standard, this property is 500m from the hotel La Ferme du Chozal, which has featured in our France à la Carte brochure for many years. It is located in the heart of Beaufortain, in a charming little village surrounded by mountains, including Mont Blanc. This attractively-decorated, cosy apartment occupies the top floor of a large house, (the ground floor is used by one of the hotel employees) and is just opposite the village church (the bell sounds every hour but not between 10pm and 7am). Lovingly restored with traditional Alpine furniture, the interior is immaculately presented, well equipped and furnished with a certain artistic flair. From the open-plan kitchen/diner, there is a large window which opens onto a narrow, south-facing balcony providing delightful views towards the village and the impressive mountains beyond. Guests will benefit from complementary access to the hotel’s swimming pool and sauna, 500m away (June to September). This is the heart of Mont Blanc country and is an ideal base for walking and numerous recreational activities. Just a short drive away from the famous ski resort of Les Saisies which, lying between two valleys, has breathtaking views of Mont Blanc; the charming mountain village of Megève with its pretty main square, and a little further afield, Annecy with its lake (where water sports are possible) and bustling old town.
