OVO Network specialises in beautiful, hand-picked high-end properties for unique stays in the French Alps. Chalet Serbijanka is an OVO Network partner property. The OVO Network team’s opinion - Chalet Serbijanka is a three-storey chalet on the road between Manigod and Le Croix Fry, with five bedrooms and five bathrooms as well as a sauna, steam room and outdoor hot tub. There are five bedrooms, all of which have en suite shower rooms. Four of the rooms are doubles - one has a freestanding bath, another has access to the balcony at the front of the property. The fifth bedroom has three sets of bunk beds, ideal for younger guests. They will also love the play area on the landing, which has a television, beanbag seating and table football. The open-plan living area has been thoughtfully laid out with two seating areas - a large comfortable sofa in front of the windows, where you can enjoy the changing view over a good chat and cup of tea, and a smaller more cosy area with a television and an electric fire. It means those who want to curl up with a book or watch a film can do so without being distracted by the chatter! We think the highlights of this superb chalet are the spa area - a sauna, steam room and the outdoor hot tub - as well as the incredible view of the Aravis mountains.We love the large terrace too, where you can eat out in the summer, relax in the hot tub or wrap you hands around a cup of hot chocolate for a bit of stargazing in the winter. WIFI, cleaning, towels & linen included.

Chalet Serbijanka is well-placed to enjoy everything the La Clusaz area has to offer. You’re 2km from the village of Manigod and just a five-minute drive from the pistes and restaurants at Croix Fry (altitude 1500m). Here novice skiers can learn the basics with an ESF instructor, while the more experienced will enjoy the 220km of pistes that link the area to La Clusaz and Le Grand Bornand. Parking at the pistes is free, but if you’d rather leave the car at home, the ski bus stops just 150m from the chalet and will have you on the slopes in no time. Cross-country skiers will find plenty of trails to choose from, and non-skiers are not forgotten either, with a heated indoor/outdoor swimming pool, ice skating rink and cinema, as well as sledging, snow-shoe walking, dog-sledding and sleigh rides all just a short drive away. In the summer, you can fill your days with activities or take it easy - you’ll be spoiled for choice in the Aravis region. There’s no shortage of walks, from mountain trails to hiking on the Gliéres plateau. If road or mountain biking is more your style, the chalet overlooks the route of the Tour de France when it passes through Manigod on the way to La Clusaz. In summer some of the ski lifts become bike lifts - take the easy way up and come down at your own pace. Adrenalin junkies can try paragliding, canyoning, climbing, or white-water rafting - just some of the many activities on offer within a few miles of Manigod. Lake Annecy is only a 30-minute drive away and offers lots of watersports including waterskiing, wake-boarding, sailing, and diving. If this all sounds too energetic, why not just take a cruise, or hire a boat and find yourself a quiet lakeside beach? Whatever you do, you’re sure to have a holiday you won’t forget.
