Chalet La Cote, Meribel & Mottaret, France

Chalet La Cote is in a great location in the Mussillon area of Meribel. There is a regular bus service that stops very close to the chalet and so getting to the slopes is easy. Meribel’s famous nightlife is within an easy 10 minute walk from the chalet, and the nearest bar, the famous O' Sullivans (formally the famous Dicks Tea Bar), is just a few minutes’ walk away

Chalet La Cote sits in a tranquil setting at the entrance to Meribel, at the heart of the Three Valleys. Featuring a south facing terrace overlooking the snowy mountains beyond, it's the perfect place for watching the sunset from the outdoor hot tub. But despite its quiet position – so quiet in fact that deer frequently walk up to graze just outside - Meribel's famous apres-ski scene is just a short walk away.

Chalet La Cote has an open plan lounge has a lovely open fire leading to the dining area with french doors opening out onto that south facing terrace. There are five bedrooms, three with en-suite bathrooms on the first floor and a further two triple bedrooms each with its own private bathroom on the third floor.

During your stay in one of our catered chalets we will serve you hearty breakfasts, tasty home-made cake for afternoon tea and a delicious three course evening meal each evening for five nights of your stay, all complimented with unlimited bottled wine.

Breakfast

As skiers ourselves, we know how important breakfast is to set you up for a good day on the mountain so take your pick from porridge and eggs cooked to order, French bread, preserves, flaky croissants, yoghurt, muesli, cereals and each day a differing cooked option which includes sausages and bacon, fluffy pancakes, scrambled eggs with lardons, all served alongside fruit juice and freshly brewed coffee or our specially imported Yorkshire tea.

Afternoon Tea

It’s a favourite chalet tradition, coming back to your chalet at the end of a hard day on the piste to a freshly baked cake along with tea and coffee.

Dinner

Our menu is freshly prepared to create delicious wholesome dishes that may range from local mountain favourites such as a traditional rich boeuf bourguignon to Loin of pork with caramelised apple and cider all served with delicious accompaniments and seasonal vegetables. We finish with scrumptious desserts such as a classic warming apple crumble or a melt in your mouth chocolate fondant. All of our food is complimented with a choice of handpicked wines supplied by our wine merchant Le Verre Gourmand and finally we round off the evening with freshly brewed coffee and tea.

Wines

Your host will serve our house wine throughout the meal which we have specially chosen to accompany the dishes on our menu. We have a good selection of white and red wines based on our pre-season wine tastings which we do every year plus invaluable feedback that we receive each year from our guests. In addition when you book the whole chalet you may upgrade to our premium selection please contact us for details.

Children’s Meals

We are always happy to provide an earlier evening meal of family favourites, for our younger guests, just let us know their likes and dislikes and we will do the rest.
