Description

At this unique mountain hideaway, you’ll feel like you’ve been let in on a best-kept secret. La Ferme du Lac Vert began life as a 19th-century Savoyard farmhouse. Once derelict, it has been delicately restored to its former glory by the owners, and today it’s everything and more that a luxury ski chalet should be.

Nestled in a charming Montriond village on the outskirts of Morzine, La Ferme du Lac Vert is packed with character; guests can expect to find exposed stone walls, wooden beams, shuttered windows, winding staircases and roaring fires alongside a stylish chalet-chic décor. Outstandingly warm hospitality and five-star dining come as standard – the team here regularly caters for special events and weddings, so nothing is too much trouble.

Stand-out features include a barrel sauna, a hot tub for soothing aching limbs and gazing out over snowy scenes, and a spacious open-plan living area complete with a banquet-style dining table and snug sofas.

The chalet’s 12 bedrooms have a vintage-with-a-twist décor, and all have a sleek ensuite bathroom. Each bedroom is individual in size and style; some feature balconies with mountain views or garden access, while others come with slipper baths or four-poster beds. There’s a mix of doubles, triples and family rooms. Next door, sister chalet La Petit Ferme offers a further three bedrooms – perfect for multi-generational or large group luxury ski holidays.
