Getting to us here at Chalet Chovettaz in the “Secret Valley” of Les Contamines-Montjoie, French Alps, is really easy!

By Air:

We are just over an hour from Geneva International airport and will be delighted to meet you there, assist with your bags and equipment and whisk you away in style in our comfortable chalet vehicles.

Geneva is well served from the world over by all the major carriers and especially by low cost and charters from within Europe. Easyjet, Flybe, and Bmi Baby all have regular flights from regional airports in the UK. British Airways and Swiss Airlines fly regularly from the major cities.

We have scheduled our arrival and departure dates for Sundays in order that you may take advantage of low-cost air travel and avoid the hustle and bustle of Saturday travel (this also means you get to ski on Saturday when the slopes are really quiet!) Should you wish to arrive on a day other than a Sunday, we cannot guarantee that our pick up/drop off services will be available but we can advise you on the best private air transfer services and taxi or bus companies to use. You should check with us before confirming your travel arrangements.

Flights to Lyon, one of the major airports in France, could also be considered when booking your travel. We regret that we cannot arrange to meet you in Lyon. Therefore, you will have to arrange your own onward travel to Les Contamines (approx 2½ hours by road).

Both Geneva airport and Lyon airport have excellent car hire facilities - you may wish to check with us prior to making your travel arrangements to see if we can arrange any deals with our more commonly used car hire companies on your behalf.

By travelling on a Sunday you will hopefully maximise your savings on the low cost and scheduled flight prices, Normally the earlier you book your holiday and flight the lower the prices, especially during the school holiday weeks but more importantly, by booking earlier, flights are available at more sociable hours and hence your holiday does not have to start with a 4.30am wake up to catch a 6.30am flight in the middle of UK winter! The earlier you book the flight the more convenient time there will be.

By Car:

Some of you may wish to bring your own car and start your holiday by travelling through the beautiful and varied French countryside on roads and autoroutes that are a dream to travel along. www.mappy.fr. This site will give you door to door instructions on how best to travel through France, including typical cost of journey, toll fees etc. We are a short 15 minute drive from the autoroute A40. Bringing your own transport allows you endless possibilities to explore the area and because our holidays start and end on Sunday you’ll be able to enjoy your journey on uncluttered and lorry-free roads. For speed, ease, reliability and flexibility use Eurotunnel whose new website is www.eurotunnel.com

By Train:

Train services from the UK by Eurostar are well worth considering. Connections from Lille and Paris by high speed TGV run to nearby St Gervais and Geneva. We will collect you from the station.

However you wish to travel to us, you can be assured of our special warm welcome and hospitality upon your arrival at Chalet Chovettaz and throughout your stay.
