Méribel

This light and airy lodge features a double-height drawing room with a blazing log fire, overlooked by a galleried study. It is furnished in a contemporary style – traditional, meets modern with honey-coloured timbers combined with exposed stone to create a relaxed and sophisticated modern atmosphere. Recent additions include a sauna plus a superb 'home cinema' with a pool table – and if that isn’t enough, it couldn’t get better than sipping a glass of champagne in the pool or hot tub overlooking Mont Vallon at the end of the day.

Aurore can also be booked with the adjoining Chalet Boréale to create an unforgettable super luxury chalet for up to 22 guests.
