Pure Altitude never fails to deliver the benefits of fresh mountain air and many of the treatments on offer are infused with edelweiss - a symbolic plant of the Alps. Enjoy the warmth of a jacuzzi or sauna after a day in the snow and allow yourself to sink into relaxation with a full body massage.

Spread across a number of villages and hamlets, the Serre Chevalier valley’s not your usual alpine resort – but that’s what we like about it. While you won’t find a main hub of restaurants, bars and accommodation, a stay in one of the villages gives you a more ski-focussed, budget friendly week on the mountains. Briancon, Chantemerle, Villeneuve and Monêtier are the four main bases, each with their own character, but all with terrific lift access to the mountain. Typical French Briancon sits at the fa...
With some of the best conditions in the French Alps (80% of the slopes are above 2000m) the ski area includes wide-open, sunny plateaus, scenic tree lined runs and a perfectly groomed blanket of white beneath your skis or board. The piste can be accessed from all four towns and nursery slopes run from each allowing beginners to gain some confidence in peace - with help from the excellent ski schools in the area they’ll be progressing higher in no time! Beginners will find a number of gentle blues and steady ...
There’s never a dull moment here and with four different towns oozing character you’re sure to find something to suit you. Ski down the home run at Chantemerle to find the popular station bar where après ski begins with a happy hour or if you’re based in Villeneuve, the Grotto at the base of the slopes is the place to be for that après ski buzz! 1420 in Briancon is perfect for an evening of sophisticated drinks. The liveliest après is found at Villeneuve with a number of bars for evening drinks - The Frog ...

"Best hotel we've stayed in, we've been spoiled!"

Hoey, McKnight and Brook party
5/ out of 5
We had a brilliant week away, the Grand Aigle is the best hotel we’ve ever been to! We all really liked it and feel a bit spoiled really, nowhere else is going to be as good... The staff were lovely, the food was lovely – everything was very nice! The hotel’s really modern (I think it had been recently renovated) and was all done up nicely. It’s nearly ski in, ski out, although the run back was quite hard so some of us did have to walk a bit, which wasn’t a problem. We could walk down into the town and then carry on a bit further to some really nice, un-touristy parts. Our bedroom was fine, we were sharing with our 16 year old and it had a sliding door after his bed which meant he had his own space, so it was perfect really.
