There is a choice of comfortable catered chalet accommodation, or delightful self contained appartments for self-catering on our self-guided walking holidays. Nights in mountain huts can also be arranged if you wish to undertake some of the more challenging multi-day walks.

La Maison de Fifine is set on a south facing hillside, nestled in a quiet spot, just 400 metres from the centre of Samoëns village. It offers exceptional views of the imposing 2,200 metre 'Aouille de Crioux', which stands above the village.

This 500 year old building has an abundance of character and has been carefully furnished in an authentic style, which is one of the reasons why it has been awarded five stars by the local authority. As well as having six guest rooms, there is also a sauna, spacious living/dining room and gardens.

Three of the bedrooms lead onto the south facing terrace overlooking the sunny garden and all of the bedrooms have en-suite facilities. Two rooms have one double bed each, three have two singles and one has four singles, which allows us to accommodate a maximum of 14 people.

Note that depending on availability, we may use our alternative chalet accommodation, the luxurious la vielle Ferme.

Cuisine
Our catered, self-guided walking holidays are full board. A one week holiday includes a hearty breakfast each day. We then lay out a range of options for people to make up their own packed lunches on walk days.

You will then find tea and cakes waiting for you on your return to the chalet and a three course evening meal with wine and beer will then be served on all but one evening, giving you the chance to try out some local Savoyard specialities in one of the local restaurants.

On our self-catered holidays, accommodation consists of a choice of self contained appartments in a beautifully renovated Savoyard farmhouse, situated in a lovely little hamlet just 15 minutes walk from the centre of Samoëns. Vallon d'en Haut is in a wide and sunny part of the valley and provides direct access to some of our walks.

The smaller appartment which comfortably takes up to 3 people, is an open plan studio set in the 'mazot', a small outbuilding, which is separate from the main building. The larger appartment accommodates between 4 and 7 guests in three bedrooms on the top floor, with a spacious and comfortable living room, kitchen and bathroom downstairs.

For large groups, both appartments can be combined to accommodate up to 10 people. And there is also the option of flexi-catering where you can join your hosts - Ann and Mitch - in the main house for dinner if you choose to.
