Igloo Apartment

1

IGLOO is a modern apartment with astonishing views and sunsets over Lake Geneva and the Swiss mountains.

Perfectly situated, you are able to ski directly out of the apartment block and the local cable car, shops, restaurants and pub are only a one minute walk away! Lake Geneva, otherwise known as Lac Leman, is an interesting 20 minute drive down the mountain, so this area is ideal for both summer walking, cycling and swimming vacations together with skiing and other winter snow sports. Drive for about 30 minutes and you are in the ‘Porte du Soleil’ – the largest ski/mountain bike area in the world, with a further 650 km of piste!

From the village of Thollon you can walk into woodland, uphill or downhill, with some of the best walks in the Haute Savoie region. One in particular is starred in the Michelin guide as an area of exceptional natural beauty and boasts the best viewing point for Lake Geneva together with the Jura mountains.

This apartment is finished to a high standard and comfortably sleeps 6 people, with 2 double bedrooms, bunk beds in the hallway and a toilet separate from the bathroom. Outside, there is a small balcony, with a table and seating, which has splendid views over Lake Geneva where you can watch the most spectacular sun sets.

The apartment also has a small lockable store room which allows safe storage of your skis and other personal items.

Inside, in the main living area, there is a flat screen TV, comfortable seating with a large dining table, six chairs and a well equipped kitchen containing a small oven, microwave and fridge.

The two double bedrooms are cheerfully furnished with plenty of cupboards/storage space. Two bunk beds in the hallway are comfortable, can be closed away from the main sitting area and a travel cot is also available, if needed, for babies or very small children.

This apartment is well equipped with all bed linen and towels provided together with everything you need to cook meals, (but do let us know if anything is missing!)  Additionally, Thollon has some reputable restaurants, a friendly bakery, speciality cheese shop and mini-supermarket as well as its cordial ambiance.

The owners live two minutes away in the village and are available to help whenever possible – to arrange transport from/to airport as and when required, provide food and drink for your arrival or anything else to make your stay as relaxing as possible.
