Family reunions
Family reunions in large chalets in the French Alps
Three or four generations together in Champagny-le-Haut, in Savoie: three neighbouring chalets, up to 52 guests, a bedroom for everyone and long tables to gather around.
Tell us about your reunionA house each, everyone together.
Le Gaulois and Le Sabot de Vénus are adjoining and connect from the inside; La Datcha is about thirty metres away. Each branch of the family can have its own house, kitchen and living rooms, and everyone meets up for meals and evenings by the fire.
Together, our three chalets offer 28 bedrooms and nearly 52 beds: nobody ends up on the sofa, everyone has a proper place.
How many of you?
One chalet for a large family, two connected chalets for around thirty, all three for a real family reunion.

For every generation
The little ones have plenty to do: the shepherd's bunk bed at La Datcha, the mezzanines at Le Sabot de Vénus, the sledges waiting in the ski room, the meadows around the hamlet. The grown-ups enjoy the wellness area (indoor pool, sauna, hammam) and the quiet of the valley. For the very young, cots and high chairs are available.
The long table
At Le Gaulois, the 70 m² vaulted dining room, the house's former stable, is made for big meals: one long table under the stone, the fire lit. The kitchens of all three chalets are professional (range cooker, large oven), enough to cook for everyone.
For a break, a caterer can take over the stove, your groceries can be dropped off before you arrive by the village grocery, and fresh bread is delivered to the chalet in winter.
Days well spent
Summer or winter, the valley keeps everyone busy, and the four-hamlet loop passes the front door. In summer: walks to the hamlets and the Py waterfall, tree-top adventure, horse riding, fishing. In winter: sledging, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and Paradiski skiing with the free shuttle to the resort.

Our tips for organising it
Book early: bringing several chalets together on the same dates takes some notice, especially for a weekend in June or September. Draw up a sleeping plan before you arrive: the elders somewhere quiet, the children together, each family in its own house.
