Chamonix is a large town and quite unlike any other European ski resort. It is by no means a purpose built resort, and the region is steeped in history. While the area is famous for it’s skiing, Chamonix is widely regarded as being one of the best resorts in Europe for non-skiers as there is a huge amount of things to see and do off the slopes.

“Loved our stay at the wonderful Chalet Cragganmore! Amazing views, great company and helpful staff. Special kudos go to Alex - the talented young chef. His canapés were among the most innovative I’ve had - especially liked the Mini English Breakfast and Deconstructed Beef Wellington! Great wines too and the whisky tasting was a clever touch - I learned something new!” Bob Preston 2012

“We had an amazing week at Cragganmore. Thank you so much for making our stay so enjoyable. We are heading back to London determined to return one day. (Barney, thanks for the skiing tips!!) Simon, Daniela, Stella, Silvia Jan 2013

“We stayed in Cragganmore back in December and one of the main things that stood out for me was the quality of the food produced by the Chef Alex. It was like dining in a Michelin start restaurant but in the comfort of your own home. Superb food, excellent service and all-round memorable stay. We will be back!” D.Frith, Dec 2012

“Dalmore is truly a spectacle. From the stylish bedrooms to the wooden lounge features built from trees felled outside the property, every detail is crafted to perfection. A modern, yet comfy chalet, Dalmore is certainly one of the best places to stay in the whole of Chamonix. Our group had an unforgettable time staying at the Chalet and with a view onto the beautiful Alps from every angle Dalmore is surely the pinnacle of skiing accommodation. The addition of a personal chef who cooks and bakes for you every day is simply the icing on the cake! Many thanks again for an incredible holiday!” Mike Battle Jan 2014
