TESTIMONIALS

"I have stayed at Stuey's chalet in Chatel many times over the last 15 years, both as a family and on "girls ski weekends". Both offered a fabulous holiday. The chalet is so welcoming, homely and warm, you almost don't want to leave it to go skiing! The food cooked by Cameron in March was 5 star and Emily our driver/host was extremely friendly and always went the extra mile for our group, even organising a massage for me. If you want a day just to potter about the town 5 minutes walk away, the shops are lovely and there is a spa/swimming pool to relax in, or enjoy the hot tub at the chalet. Each visit is special and never disappoints."

"Chalet Chataigne would be extremely hard to beat to find a more friendly, relaxed, blinking-great-food chalet, with chalet hosts who have an 'absolutely nothing is too much trouble' approach. We first visited as just our family of 5, 4 years ago (on recommendation from friends who had been visiting for years), and wow—we loved it! We've been back every year, brought friends with us each time, and now all our ski friends love Stuey's chalet too. Thank you so much, Stuey, Emily, and team! You are the bomb!"

"After many happy childhood years spent at Stuey’s with my family, I returned in Feb and loved my solo stay. The chalet is super traditional, warm and cosy - loved the hot tub too! The 4 course meal was lovely each evening (catering for my veggie needs!). I loved chatting with the other people staying each evening. The town has lots of cute bars and places to eat (5 minute walk!). I spent a day working from my laptop from the chalet which was so peaceful - the rest of the time on the slopes was brill. Our host Emily was really helpful throughout our stay too. Thank you Skialot team. Can’t wait to return in March 2025 with my whole family!"
