Bright Family Apartment with Stunning Views in Morzine - Pigeonnier 1

This lovely bright apartment, sleeping 6-8, is on the first (top) floor of a south-facing 3-storey chalet and has magnificent views through wide picture windows across Morzine. Just 6 minutes' walk to the SuperMorzine lift across the footbridge, and 5 mins walk to the shops/bars of Le Bourg area. There's a garage included with this property, very useful for storing mountain bikes and skis / boards. 1 car can be parked right next to the garage. 

From the lounge the truly amazing view is of the Pleney ski slopes, and if you turn to the left you'll see the peaks of Nyon and Chamossiere. Down below is the river Dranse and the tennis / padel courts. 

The apartment has a separate fitted kitchen (with all the usual mod cons), and a lounge / dining room opposite. The dining table seats 8, and there are 2 sofas, a TV (with Freesat TV) and a DVD player, free Wifi, and double doors out onto a balcony which runs along the sunny valley side of the apartment. There is a fireplace with a small electric fire. Leading off the lounge is a bright double bedroom with the same amazing view! Next to the kitchen is one modern shower room / WC, and at the end of the corridor is a utility room with washing machine, plus a second shower room and WC. There is a large quad bedroom (double bed plus full size bunk beds) and a small bedroom with full-size bunk beds. 

Separate fitted kitchen has the following equipment:  full size oven, under counter fridge, drinks fridge, microwave, dishwasher, kettle, toaster, Filter Coffee machine, Nespresso machine, Fondue set 

It takes 6-7 min (450m) to walk to the SuperMorzine telecabine across the footbridge, and another 5 min to walk across town to the Pleney slopes (or you can jump on the free "little train" service instead). It's 5 min walk down to the Carrefour supermarket (and also to the Dixie, Rhodos and Robinson Bars, the Clin d'Oeil and Improviste restaurants and a great bakery!) It's super-easy to walk to the SuperMorzine lift; but you can also catch the free "M" bus service to the lift at Ardent: the bus stops 50m across the road from the apartment and runs every 30 min in the mornings and afternoons.

We're available by email or phone from the moment you book, and we can give you information on all the resort facilities and services. I (Rachel) will be the person who checks you in on arrival and will probably be the one that checks you out too - I live 10 mins down the road inEssert Romand. We've been running Mountain Highs for 30 years now so we've amassed a wealth of knowledge about Morzine, the locals and the wider area!
