Description
Nestled in a discreet spot of Mussillon close to the centre of Meribel, and newly renovated for 2017, this luxury ski chalet offers an intriguing blend of styles. So are you in a country estate or an achingly hip private members club?
Neither, actually. At Chalet Lightbowne, you’re kicking back in your very own spacious, private luxury bolthole. Hold on to your ski hats because this luxury ski chalet’s wonderful facilities are yours for the taking. With décor and furnishings by Philippe Starck, Thibaut and Tom Dixon, to describe this chalet as chic would be an understatement. Original wood beams offer a nod to this French luxury ski chalet’s heritage.
Each morning, you’ll be greeted by wake-up drinks, brought to your bedside by one of the chalet’s dedicated staff members. A delicious cooked breakfast prepared by your private chef is next on the list. You can enjoy it around the grand dining table or on the south-facing terrace, with panoramic views. It’s the ideal way to set you up for another day of hurtling down the slopes on your luxury ski holiday.
Later, when you’ve had your fill of exploring the famous Three Valleys ski area, you can head back to your luxury ski chalet and flop into one of the inviting oversized sofas by the open stone clad open fire.
You might drift back out to the terrace for sundowners before a four-course dinner is served at the over-sized solid wood dining table. Or you might steal away to the ground floor spa room. Feast your eyes on the sunken Jacuzzi, sauna and tranquil seating area. If that’s not enough, indulge in a massage in the private treatment room, just the ticket for easing tired ski muscles.
Here at Chalet Lightbowne, you might just have found your own little piece of heaven. The only downside? Dragging yourself away at the end of your luxury ski holiday?
