In Nogentil, a sought-after residential corner of Courchevel 1850, Chalet des Bois has the look and soul of a mountain refuge, with the comfort of the resort's grand chalets. Weathered timber, century-old beams and small-paned windows set the tone, and the main living room rises beneath a cathedral ceiling lined in old wood, a room made for long evenings by the fire once the skis are put away.
Seven en-suite bedrooms – four doubles, two children's rooms and a master bedroom – are conceived as quiet retreats at altitude, comfortably welcoming ten adults and five children. Balconies or terraces wrap every level, so the forest and the snow are never far from view. When the day on the mountain is done, the wellness area offers a hammam and a massage room, while the outdoor Nordic bath is the place to sink into hot water and watch snow settle on the fir trees. A games room with table football and arcade games keeps younger guests, and competitive adults, entertained.
The Cospillot and Bellecôte slopes lie just 100 metres away, opening onto the Three Valleys, which link Courchevel with Méribel and Val Thorens. Service is woven into the stay: a butler and a housekeeper are each present ten hours a day, a valet service two hours a day, and a chef prepares breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner. For a gathering of friends or a family reunion, Chalet des Bois offers the rare pleasure of an authentic chalet run with the precision of a fine hotel.
