Located in the exclusive, piste-side residence Clos Honoraz in Morillon village, Apartment CH8 is a beautiful 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom accommodation arranged over 2 floors. Comprising an impressive 104m2 of luxury living space (8.6m2 less than 1.8m high) this elegant home away from home sleeps up to 10 guests in absolute style and comfort. The apartment’s contemporary design combines perfectly with traditional, locally sourced elements, including some simply stunning custom-made furnishings and only the highest quality bedding and linens.

Watch skiers glide down the return piste to Morillon or enjoy the views of hillside chalets and the surrounding countryside from one of two, large south-facing balconies. Or curl up on one of your two comfy deep sofas in front of the Smart TV with Bluray player. There is also free Wi-Fi internet throughout. A communal garden space blends seamlessly into the wider natural surrounds and provides a great space to relax or play. The apartment also benefits from a private lockable garage, plus additional off-street parking in the residents’ only carpark, as well as private ski locker and larger storage unit fitted with boot warmer.

Situated just off the end of the return piste to Morillon village, guests will love skiing to the Clos Honoraz residence. The Domaine Skiable du Giffre (DSG) is renowned for its snow management and there are also snow canons on this run, but on any occasions when ski in/ski out is not available simply catch the telecabine, located a mere 40m from the front door. Apartment CH8 is also conveniently located to all the local shops and amenities, with the nearest bars and restaurants less than 100m away. The popular Lac Bleu with its many year-round activities, and lovely lakeside bar/restaurant is an easy 10-minute stroll away, making this apartment a great choice for holidays throughout the year.

This property is privately owned and has been carefully selected to be in Alps Accommodation’s premier portfolio. It has a Saturday changeover, however in low season and for last minute bookings, flexible arrival day and length of stay may be available. Contact us for more information.

Description

From the moment you step inside the Clos Honoraz residence you appreciate the charm and warmth of this exclusive luxury development. Antique skis and a forged-iron mirror adorn the walls of the communal hall, hinting at the attentive design within. The apartment itself is an elegant accommodation offering quality and style at every turn.

Enter via your private second-floor entrance, past the bench and hanging area, and feel immediately drawn to the spacious open-plan living, kitchen and dining areas. This space is fresh and bright, light flooding in through floor to ceiling glass sliding doors that frame an idyllic setting outside. There is a large storage cupboard in the main entrance as well as a WC to the left.

The glorious lounge is the perfect place to relax in front of your flatscreen TV with  both French & English channels as wells as Bluray disc player, and features two large, plush navy sofas that look out to the hillside beyond. There is also Wi-Fi internet throughout. The solid wooden coffee table set on an Afghan woolen rug is a central feature, and one of many custom-made and locally sourced furnishings. The glass-topped dining table with its intricate wooden inlays is a testament to the craftmanship of our region’s local artisans. With comfortable seating for up to 10 guests this is the perfect place to enjoy an evening’s meal. Or you may prefer to dine al fresco on the large south-facing balcony (10m2), equipped with outdoor dining table and chairs. An additional balcony with casual seating is located on the apartment’s upper level.

The apartment’s kitchen is stocked to perfection. Budding chef’s will appreciate the full-size electric oven and additional combination oven/microwave. There is also a 4 burner induction hob, full-size fridge with freezer compartment, dishwasher, and washing machine and separate dryer.

The kitchen is of course equipped with all the cooking utensils, pots, pans, bakeware and crockery you could ever need, including a fondue set should you wish to try your hand at some local fare.

The first of four thoughtfully designed bedrooms, which features an ensuite bathroom, is also located on the apartment’s lower level.

Reviews

Everything was excellent. Easy to get to and as per the photos. We will be back.

Koluch, Apartment CH8, February 2022

Beautiful flat, very well equipped and superbly located - everything was perfect.

Peyrot, Appartement CH8, February 2022

We were really pleased and comfortable with the apartment and would have gladly stayed on there in spite of the resort being closed down. The restrictions and uncertainty associated with the lockdown and potential border closure were, however, too drastic to contemplate particularly with having the children with us. Had matters been different we could have happily spent a week walking or playing in the snow with the kids. The area is beautiful, and we were blessed with wonderful weather; but after Tom's advice I felt we had no option other than to leave. Andy at Samoens Services was excellent and reassuring, as we left in something of a rush to get to Switzerland. Thank you to everyone in the team for your professionalism and thoughtfulness at, what I am sure, is a very testing time for all of you. I assure you that it will not be forgotten or overlooked when all of this is behind us and things return to normal.

About the owners

"I have always been drawn to the mountains, and skiing in particular is a true passion of mine. Having a getaway in the Alps has been a major life ambition. The Grand Massif was a perfect option, and Morillon in particular. The Giffre Valley is a genuinely living, breathing and working area, which gives it an authenticity that is simply lacking in most purpose built resorts. I love to head to "La Puzze" (just down the road from the apartment) out of season, and sit with local builders, foresters, and families enjoying the 'plat du jour' followed by 'un café'.

I really hope that others will enjoy staying here, in any season. Winter and summer especially are wonderful, but don't forget the verdant spring, and the colourful autumn, where you really feel you can get away from it all."
