About this property

Luxurious, detached chalet with Hot Tub + Sauna - in the 4 Valleys ski area

A modern, self catering Chalet on the Alpage de Thyon. At 1900m altitude, it is usually ski-in ski-out from property boundaries in good snow conditions. East facing with superb views to North, East and South, overlooking quiet woodland area with cross-country ski trail. Excellent local ski area, with nearest piste and lift (a high speed quad chair) only 400m away, that links to the Verbier/4 Vallée ski area.
Highlights: Outdoor hot tub and indoor sauna; Wifi/broadband.
In excellent order throughout, the main entrance on the ground floor, with porch and cloakroom, leads to a generous living area with leather sofas, TV, DVD and audio system, log burning stove and 2 doors out to the main balcony. The adjoining dining area has a large table for 10 people. The open plan kitchen has an island with ceramic hob and breakfast bar, as well as a door to the balcony. There are high quality electrical appliances with oven and microwave, and a large fridge/freezer. Top quality crockery (Villeroy & Boch), glassware and cutlery – sufficient for 10 place settings.
On the upper floor, there is a double bedroom and a 2 bed bunk bedroom, shower room and a gallery area with two single beds (one as a hideaway bed) and cot. A door leads out to the upper balcony.
Downstairs has 2 double bedrooms, shower room, sauna and utility/laundry room with heated boot rack. Door leading to lower garden area and top quality six seater hot tub.
Heating is by electric underfloor heating, which provides a very comfortable temperature throughout the chalet and the log burning stove provides a super cosy glow if required.
The whole Chalet has fantastic views of the Dent Blanche and surrounding Valais Alps.

Excellent chalet with stunning views close to ski slopes but in quiet area

Les Alouettes was as described. A great chalet for two families of four with extra 2 beds on a mezzanine. It was a shortish walk to a button/T-bar lift/bus to gondola - we used hire car to go to car park nearer lifts as too far for children in ski-boots. Not many food shopping outlets so worth getting a shop delivered (very efficient Coop service). The chalet was really comfortable with very good facilities for cooking (we didn't eat out at all). Lying in the hot tub looking up at the stars and distant mountains was a real treat. The snow was good for 4 days with heavy snowfall on 5th and powder skiing on final day/. The resort is very family friendly. The ski school was good and we had a great time.

Excellent chalet

A beautiful setting with stunning scenery. The chalet was well equipped and perfect for our family. The sauna and hot tub were a bonus. A great way to relax after a day's skiing.

Exellently equipped chalet in silent environment

The chalet offered all comfort one could think of: a fully equipped kitchen, ski boot heater, a fireplace, a sauna and our favorite - the outdoor hot tub. Ski slope is very close, too. communication with the owners was quick, reliable and accommodating. A very little point we criticized has been taken up by the owners to further improve their excellent service and hospitality.

a gr8 property, in a gr8 location with everything you need and more

we enjoyed another gr8 holiday in Warren and Sue's property. we have been there several years now and are looking forward to the next one already. the accomodation is very spacious and has everything you would have at home and more. for the winter season it has all of the drying and storage facilities for skiing and the ski in ski out location is ideal. watching the sun rise over the mountains in the morning while eating breakfast is idyllic and seeing the stars in the night sky after soaking in the hot tub is perfect. we will be back. the location is only 2hrs drive from Geneva Airport or the train service to the bottom of the mountain is very good. the restaurants in the area are good, especially La Luge who do every type of pizza you could think of. the local baker does fresh bread every day with nice cakes too. the skiing in the area is fantastic with something to suit every need. all in all a great property in a great location. Thanks to Warren and Sue.

A place to chill in the Alpine Summer

This is forth or fifth time we stayed at Chalet Les Alouettes in the early Summer...but who is counting. It is up on an mountain side, an idyllic setting with commanding views! Even from the hot tub you are surrounded but mountain peaks and dark dark skies for evening 'tubbing' The Chalet has everything you need to make the perfect hideaway or energetic break. The owners make this the easiest of rentals and have thought of everything to help you. We love mountain walking and this place puts us in the heart of fantastic rambling trails...we'll be back again and again. Johnny & Meredith.

Excellent base for...anything!

Chalet is in a truly excellent location for just about anything outdoorsish...walking, running, biking and obviously skiing. The opportunities are almost limitless. The views from the balcony (and the hot tub) are to die for. The chalet itself is wonderfully kitted out with nothing left wanting and the hot tub and sauna just top things off. Hopefully we'll be back.

relaxed hollidays in a great chalet

Great chalet, a very kind landlord, stunning nature and a beautiful ski region. It's probably the best chalet I've ever been. After a sunny day in the snow, you can almost ski to the front door of the chalet, jump in the pool and enjoy afterwards the sauna and a relaxed evening in front of the fireplace. We've had great hollidays!

Lovely chalet in a great skiing area

We spend our winter holiday already for many years in this chalet, always with two families, 4 adults and 4 kids. It is really a great place with very secure snow conditions (even in mild winters like this year), very closed to the slopes, an amazing skiing area with really everything, not crowded even in the high season and last but not least a lovely chalet where you can enjoy cozy winter evenings in the family playing games. The kitchen leave no wish open for a large group including raclette and fondue. Also great for daily recovery are the Sauna and the hot tub. We really enjoy this place since you can just switch off from everyday life and feel the mountain atmosphere.

Ein Traumhaus mit allem was dazu gehört

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Das Chalet ist wunderschön und bestens ausgestattet. Es hat alles was das Herz begehrt, eine Vielzahl an Küchenutensilien, eine jede Menge an Spielem & DVDs. Der Whirlpool ist natürlich das I-Tüpfelchen. Auch das Skigebiet hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir hatten Glück mit dem Schnee und konnten direkt bis zum Haus abfahren. Was will man mehr. Wir hatten wunderbare und erholsame Ferien. Herzlichen Dank auch für die gute Betreuung vor Ort.

Great house in a great ski area

We stayed in the chalet with our friends for 1 week and had a great time. The Chalet is just perfect for two familys. Large rooms, bath and the kitchen has everything you need. It's clean, bright and you feel yourself immediatly at home. The view to the "grand dixence" is breath taking and the hot tub is so much fun. Just sit there, relax and enjoy the mountain view. For skiing you just walk a short time through the chalets and you find yourself in the middle of the skiing area. We can absolutly recommend this house. Thank you very much!!

January 2016 Visit for Skiing 4 Vallees

We arrived after a recent heavy snowfall to find the roads, parking space and path down to the chalet cleared. Having visited previously in the summer we were delighted to find the panoramic mountain/valley view’s even more stunning with snow cover. Magical sunsets and sunrises on the distant peaks are alone worth a visit. The chalets aspect gives a sense of isolation while having close access to ski hire, restaurants and food shops. The chalet was very comfortable and well equipped for all ages. After a day’s skiing, moonlit visits to hot tub were particularly therapeutic for body and soul. 1m snow depth allowed ski in, ski out piste access - via some gardens and forest! The pistes were in near perfect condition; not at all crowded, Verbier area had more skiers, even so we never joined a queue of more than half a dozen all week. Best weeks skiing we have had for years particularly the itinerant routes.

Traumchalet für Traumurlaub

Das Chalet ist besser als in der Beschreibung.Die Besitzer investieren jedes Jahr neu.Wir waren das 3 mal da,und kommen wieder.Dieses Chalet gehört zu den Besten auf Thyon.Wir kommen schon über 20 Jahre mit der Familie in dieses Gebiet. Der Fußweg zum Chalet ist bei Schnee und Eis oft Glatt,der einzige Nachteil.

Der perfekte Wohlfühl-Urlaub...

Wir waren nicht das 1. Mal in Les Collins und es war für uns, wie nach Hause kommen. Wir haben uns sofort sehr wohl in diesem gemütlichen, sehr gut ausgestatteten Haus gefühlt und die Urlaubstage bei herrlichem Wetter und gutem Schnee mit der Familie und Freunden genossen. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt und wir werden sicher wieder kommen.

Fabulous ski holiday

We were a large party so took this property and the one next door. Both were very nice but Alouettes was spacious, clean and very well equipped. The views are fantastic, the ski in, ski out location was very handy. The hot tub was great after a good day's skiing. The local village shops and restaurants were also great. The Pizzeria was very good and owners were friendly. Best to book. We would certainly recommend the chalet for both winter and summer. Will no doubt be back. The Coull Party

Luxe et authenticité

Chalet très spacieux ou nous avons séjourné confortablement à 9 personnes. Équipement ultramoderne bien intégré dans un style authentique et soigné. Quel bonheur de se détendre dans le jaccuzzi avant de prendre l'apéritif sur la terrasse ensoleillée jusqu'à 14h30. L'accès en ski jusqu'au piste se fait sans problème en rejoignant, à travers les chalets, le parcours vita et finalement la piste de trabanta juste en dessous du départ de L'Ethérolla. Nous avons passé un semaine de rêve - et déjà réservé pour l'année prochaine ;-)

Switzerland's Top of the ski world

What should you say, when you have experienced the paradise on earth? Switzerland and especially the Valais are places of real power. We stayed with two families (10 people) for a fantastic ski week in Thyon Les Collons, Valais, Switzerland. The Alouettes Chalet offers everything you could wish for. But it's not a vacation home! Rather, it comes to be your own home, because you feel home and save from the first minutes you arrive. All is well prepared, clean and tidy. There are enough beds, plenty of dishes and all the possibilities of a modern kitchen. The dining table is generous. In the evening you can make up a romantic fire in the fireplace and enjoy a delicious wine with a great view of the numerous 4000 meter mountains. That is really amazing and at that moment, time never should stop. The well prepared ski slopes are only a few minutes away on foot, so you can enjoy an early bird ski adventure at the highest level, because the ski lift „Etherolla“ is one of the first in the whole ski arena which is running so early in the morning. After skiing, après ski is the completion of a perfect day. Maybe, I shouldn't mention it, but the Chalet Alouettes holds two sectres: a beautiful sauna and a freestanding Jacuzzi are the crown of living in the Swiss mountains. Thanks to Sue and Warren for giving us the opportunity!

Beautiful chalet, fabulously located.

Beautiful chalet, luxuriously equipped (spa and sauna), all the "stuff" that you'd expect and need to make ones stay comfortable. Underfloor heating, log fire, great sound system ... all queries with the chalet owners dealt with quickly and efficiently. Very reasonable cost, considering the location and facilities provided. Ski in/out to the 4 valleys, some of the best skiing in the alps ... wonderful holiday we'll be back !!
