Chalet
Saskia in Vaujany has an
atmosphere of laid-back luxury. All ten bedrooms have balconies
with inspiring views and en-suite facilities. There is a sun
terrace and two spacious comfortable lounges with log fires
to enjoy plus a TV and games room with table tennis, bar football
and DVD player.
Saskia can be booked as one whole chalet or
split into two five bedroomed halves and also, of course,
room by room for smaller parties. The chalet can be booked
on a self catering basis in the quiet out-of-season months
but is mainly available on a catered basis. A substantial
breakfast sets you up for the day ahead, afternoon tea greets
you on your return and on six nights a week, an unhurried
gourmet dinner with wine makes for some wonderful evenings.
This sumptuous award winning chalet is the perfect
place to be pampered. Your chalet hosts, Marcus and Rosa have
built up a loyal following amongst Ski Peak regulars over
the years for their impeccable service, knowledge of the area
and above all, for Marcus's superlative cuisine. Fresh local
produce is combined with global ingredients, ideas and inspiration
that he has gleaned on his travels to far flung destinations
to create some meals that are out of this world. Well-chosen
french AOC wines provide the perfect compliment and complete
an ideal evening in beautiful surroundings.
On the weekly staff rest night you can choose
one of the local restaurants.
Here are a few we recommend:
La Remise Pizzeria - a friendly welcome with
authentic wood-fired pizzas.
Le Mas des Neiges - serving traditional montagnarde
dishes.
La Table de La Fare - Handy to the main lift
station for an apre-ski refreshment.
Rissou Hotel - a high standard of cuisine
and sometimes available for bookings.

Extract from Tatler
Travel Guide:
SUPERCHALET FRAGILISTIC –
‘Lifts us up where we belong – in the plushest pads
on the peak, says Felice Hardy’
"This charming stand alone chalet in an
ancient farming village is divided into two halves, mirror images
of each other. The sitting and dining rooms are large and comfortable
with polished wood floors. The central hub is a glass fronted kitchen,
where you can watch chef Marcus Cull at work; he is the real reason
to choose chalet Saskia - his herb crusted lamb with parmesan polenta
and roast vegetable salad is to die for. Finish with a bowl of poppy-seed
ice-cream with orange, cardamom, apple, date and fig salad and you'll
be in foodie heaven.
Where Vaujany is linked by one of the largest cable-cars
in the world to the 143 miles of piste and 86 lifts of Alpe d'Huez.
the village is like Bembridge or rock-on-snow, in that the same
families come back year after year - and everyone knows everyone
else. Teens and twenty-somethings gather nightly in the famous Swallow
Bar."
Chalet Saskia
is in a convenient location for many activities both in
summer and winter’, take a look at our activities pages to
see what's on offer. There's something for everyone or you can just
sit and relax in the peaceful surroundings and take in the breathtaking
scenery!
