Chalet Leanna in Les Gets, France

What better way to start your day than a gentle ski straight from your door to a chair lift that whisks you up into the heart of the Morzine-Les Gets ski area? That’s exactly how you can spend your mornings at the property, a luxury ski-in/ski-out chalet in Les Gets with glorious views across town to Mont Chery. This high-spec home-from-home oozes elegance and quality, from the bespoke Bocci lighting to the luxury linens and Bamford products. Its beautiful spaces have been designed to cocoon guests in their own boutique bolthole while immersing them in an incredible slope-side setting. The joy of sitting on the balcony, après tipple in hand, taking in the snowy mountain views, can only be matched by sinking into the warm waters of the terrace’s private hot tub and watching skiers shoot down the piste into Les Gets. Offered on a self-catered basis and with off-road parking, the chalet gives guests total flexibility: independence when you want it, and the option to add on convenient extras – such as grocery shopping and the services of an in-resort concierge – when you don’t. A roaring fire brings warmth and cosiness to the open-plan living area, where a glossy kitchen has everything you could need to whip up a feast and a large dining table has room for everyone to take a seat. Four double bedrooms all come with their own bath or shower room. Bag the master suite on the top floor for a walk-in wardrobe, freestanding copper tub and views out onto the piste from the plush super-king-size bed. You’ll also find all the thoughtful facilities you’d expect from a luxury ski chalet: a spacious heated boot room to store your gear and warm your boots, a fully equipped gym and a separate TV lounge with a pool table for a few competitive rounds.
