Guest access
The rental includes the first floor and the upper floor (but not the basement or its terrace, which is permanently occupied by the person managing the rental on-site);
The two sections have separate entrances and are independent and well soundproofed from one another: however, to ensure the peace and quiet of the couple living on the floor below, I ask that you avoid playing music too loudly or raising your voices after 11 p.m., and I no longer wish to rent the property for bachelor or bachelorette parties.
Parking is available on the street in front of the chalet: 4 parking spaces.
Shops:
There are various shops, restaurants, and a supermarket in Le Chinaillon (700 m from the chalet), as well as in Le Grand-Bornand (with more stores), and an Intermarché on the road between Thônes and Le Grand-Bornand (15 km away). For more information about the resort, please visit the Grand-Bornand website.
Winter Sports:
Le Grand Bornand-Chinaillon is a medium-sized family-friendly resort in the Alps:
● 21 ski lifts, including 2 gondolas, 10 chairlifts, and 9 T-bar lifts (plus 3 snow ropes, 1 magic carpet, and 1 Tourniski in the beginner areas)
● 47 runs, including 5 black, 12 red, 15 blue, and 15 green
● 90 km of trails across 360 hectares, 3 competition venues, 4 beginner areas
● A snowpark ranked among the top 10 in France, featuring a half-pipe, boardercross, and 4 jump lines ● Artificial snow coverage provided by 146 snow guns, ensuring that 90 ha and 22 km of trails have snow coverage all season long.
● 70 km of cross-country ski trails (green, blue, red, and black) spread between the Grand Bornand valley and the southern slope at Chinaillon.
● Biathlon stadium (cross-country skiing and shooting)
● An indoor ice rink.
The nearest chairlift is across from the chalet: you’ll need to walk down three turns to get there (7-minute walk) or take the ski bus (a free shuttle that runs every 20 minutes, stops near the chalet, and circles the lower slopes). The ski school is a little further away (8 to 10 min on foot); it’s best to take a car or the ski bus.
From Mont Lachat (2,100 m), accessible by chairlift, you can see Mont Blanc.
