Description:

"The Chicest New Chalet" - Sunday Times Style Magazine Jan 2008

This spectacular chalet is full of surprises. The beautiful old wood exterior is traditionally Swiss, but once inside, kitchens and bathrooms showcase ultra-modern design, whilst the bedrooms transport you to the last days of the Raj.

The first floor is given over to a huge open plan living area, which makes the perfect party space. The kitchen/dining room is linked by a fully equipped bar area to a double height reception room with open fireplace and TV snug. Panorama windows lead on to a large wraparound terrace with spectacular views over the Val de Bagnes.

Anglo-indian four poster beds, flowing curtains and colourful throws, give Bella Coola's four double bedrooms a romantic colonial feel. The top floor of the chalet is given over to a charming master suite, complete with study, dressing room, bathroom and private terrace.

The 3 remaining doubles are located on the ground floor, together with a triple single, ideal for children and adults alike. All the bedrooms have sprung mattresses, goosedown bedding and crisp Egyptian cotton sheets. The spacious ensuite bathrooms have baths and separate showers and are all equipped with full size Jo Malone toiletries.
