OVO Network specialises in beautiful, hand-picked luxury properties for unique stays in the French Alps. Chalet Cashmere Spirit is an OVO Network property. The OVO Network team’s opinion - This charming traditional ski chalet sleeps up to 10 guests in five bedrooms, with four bathrooms. The accommodation is set over three floors, with cosy bedrooms and elegant bathrooms on each floor, which makes it perfect for several families. With a heated indoor pool, a spa area with a hot tub, sauna and a massage table, as well as three separate seating areas, a sunny deck and garden, it has all the facilities you need for a fabulous holiday, whenever you decide to visit. The age of this former farmhouse makes for a slightly unusual layout, and there are stairs between some of the rooms. We think this just adds to the charm of this lovely chalet, but it may be challenging for guests with limited mobility. The chalet is set on the main road between Manigod and the ski station of Croix Fry, and the ski bus stops just 50m from the door. This gives you great easy access to the slopes, but guests may also experience some road noise. Free wifi, cleaning, towels & linen included.

Chalet Cashmere Spirit is just 10 minutes from the Croix Fry sector of the La Clusaz pistes (altitude 1500m), where you can park free, although the ski bus stops just 50m from the chalet. There are plenty of gentle nursery slopes here, where beginners can build confidence, while experienced skiers have access to more than 200km of pistes and 95 lifts in the La Clusaz/Le Grand Bornand area. Cross-country skiers will find plenty of trails on the nearby Beauregard plateau, and non-skiers are not forgotten, with an ice skating rink and cinema in La Clusaz, as well as sledging, snow-shoe walking, dog-sledding and horse-drawn sleigh rides. And when you come home at the end of the day, the underfloor heating, log fire and sauna mean there’s always a warm welcome. Summer visitors will find plenty of walks, from mountain hikes to gentle plateau paths, and you can take the ski lift to the top of the mountains and come back down at your own pace. There are tree-top adventure parks for all the family at Thônes and Le Grand Bornand, and a beautiful lakeside golf course at Annecy. Adrenalin junkies can try paragliding, canyoning, climbing, via ferrata, mountain-biking or white-water rafting - just some of the activities on offer within a few miles of Manigod. Round off the perfect day with a barbecue and a dip in the pool back at Chalet Cashmere Spirit. Just a short drive from Manigod, the ski resorts of La Clusaz and Le Grand Bornand have a good choice of shops and restaurants, as well as weekly markets where you can pick up fresh local produce. There are more shops and a couple of supermarkets in Thônes, just 10 minutes’ drive away. The medieval town of Annecy is a great day out. Browse the shops, museums and galleries and eat at a lakeside restaurant before hiring a boat and exploring the beaches, or indulging in a little watersport, such as kitesurfing, waterskiing or windsurfing.
