OVO Network specialises in beautiful, hand-picked luxury properties for unique stays in the French Alps. Chalet Argali is an OVO Network property. This wonderful chalet on the edge of the ski village of Chinaillon sleeps 14 people (12 adults max) in six bedrooms. The OVO Network team’s opinion - It's in a great location on the edge of the piste, which means skiers with some experience can ski straight down to the village lifts. However, beginners should make their way to the lifts which are just 1km away. The chalet has six bedrooms, five of which have en suite shower rooms, and two have extra beds ideal for children. There is also a separate shower room for the sixth bedroom. However there is no bath in the chalet, which may not suit families with very young children. The sunny balconies and terrace are wonderful places to relax, both in winter and in summer, with wonderful views of the mountains from the hot tub and pétanque piste. You're sure to spend a lot of time out there. In the summer, you don't even need to go inside to cook, with a kitchen and barbecue on the terrace. Free wifi, cleaning, towels & linen included.

Experienced skiers won’t waste a minute getting to the slope at Chalet Argali, as it passes right by the door. Those with less confidence can head to the ski lift just 1km down the hill. From Chinaillon you can ski the whole of the Massif Aravis - 220km of pistes - on one ski pass. The resorts of La Clusaz and Le Grand Bornand are linked by ski bus, so you’ll never be stuck for a lift home. There are plenty of cross-country ski trails in the Bouchet valley, as well as several routes from Chinaillon village. Beginners in this sport will love the Evo Nordic Park, which has a circuit featuring a variety of terrains, while boarders will appreciate the Snowpark. In the winter, the road to the chalet is closed after the next bend, providing a great area for ski touring and snowshoe walking, and the chalet's altitude (1380) means you'll always get the best of the snow. Non-skiers can go ice-skating or swimming in La Clusaz, where the heated indoor and outdoor pools are open all year round, or try snowshoeing, sledging, dog-sledding and sleigh rides. But the mountains aren't just for winter - there's plenty to do and discover in the summer too. A network of walking and biking trails cover the mountains, and you can pick up a route map for either at the tourist office. There’s a fantastic swimming pool complex in Le Grand Bornand, with a restaurant and grassy areas for picnics. If you’re looking for something a little more challenging, there’s a climbing school, via ferrata routes, a tree-top adventure park, canyoning, white-water rafting and paragliding all nearby. Le Grand Bornand has Famille Plus status, and prides itself on a great programme of activities for young families. August sees the International Children’s Festival in the village - a week of puppet shows, circus acts and workshops, with a grand firework finale.
