Whats Special
SECLUDED COSINESS
Chalet Le Moulin is perched on a mountain high up above the valley. Surrounded by natural forest, little meadows, we don't have neighbors except maybe the occasional hiker. On a warm day in the summer you might hear distant cowbells or see squirrels hopping amongst the branches. You can have a packed day of activities and then retreat back to curl up on the sofa, with a log fire and a glass of wine.
Wood Warmth
Ever wondered what a read solid log chalet feels like?











Dancing in the happy valley
Samoens is the largest village in our narrow Alpine valley. France voted it the most popular family holiday destination. Here the village tourist office shows off exactly why it a playground paradise set in "la grand nature".
Hygge
Is there a really good English word for that cosy warm feeling in front of a log fire? A mug of hot choclate to hand, a family board game in progress, the crackle of the open log fire. That moment of warm contentedness. Outside the starry night above the mountains. Inside the chalet's solid wood walls wrapping warmly around your family. Hyg-ge; is the Norwegian word for a mood of coziness and comfortable conviviality with a warm feeling of contentment. Its where we get the word hug.
RUSTIC COMFORT
We love our second home, and have equipped it with everything you could need for great holiday. There are sledges to borrow in the garage. A boot warmer for drying. Magnetic roof racks for your skis and poles. Maps and books of the walking trails. Cupboards with games, books and DVDs. Our recommendations on where to explore and what is best. We want you to have a great holiday. Just read the reviews and see what people like...
FOOD
We like cooking rustic style. Whether outdoors in the Pizza Oven, grilling on the terrace BBQ, or indoors cooking on the Norvega wood fired stove (from Norway off course!) Our kitchen is crammed with the usual stuff for making hearty family meals to fairy cakes but we also have the Alpine favourites of Raclette maker and Fondue Pot, Pancake/Waffle maker and at least four ways of making coffee. We stock plenty of herbs & spices, some oils and vinegars too. Explore your inner chef.
