Living room 2022

 

Our fantastic ski apartment in L’Ecrin des Neiges, Val Claret, Tignes offers 3 bedroom luxury accommodation facing the slopes for up to 8 persons. The apartment was completely reconditioned recently including new beds, mattresses and duvets.

We have been awarded a ‘3 pillow’ rating by Tignes Owners Partnership which means a ‘Completely renovated apartment with good quality and new furniture. New kitchen equipment (dishwasher, ceramic hob, extractor fan, fridge).’ In other words – all modern conveniences! See below for more details about the apartment.

The apartment is available for whole weeks (usually Saturday-Saturday) from December to April, and July to August for all the activities that Tignes has introduced.

If you book direct with us you will get the following advantages:

Located in Val Claret, L’Ecrin des Neiges is one of the most popular apartment complexes in Tignes due to its location at the slopes level. It is superbly positioned within 5 minutes walk or 2 minute free bus ride (bus-stop outside the complex) from 5 ski lifts. The apartment is on the first floor with a large balcony facing south toward the Tichot slopes with 6 chairs and a table. There is an excellent restaurant in the complex.

We accept PayPal (you can use a credit card for this) and payment by bank transfer in sterling (to a UK bank) and euros (to a French bank).

The warmer temperatures throughout the French Alps over the last few years led to many resorts closing runs, but Tignes was hardly affected and in 2022-23 it was one of the few resorts in France where you could ski extensively at the start of the season. The glaciers in Tignes and Le Fornet (Val d’Isere) are open for skiing all year round.

It’s also a great location for a summer vacation with all the events hosted by Tignes and the list of sports is extensive, including some unique to Tignes.

The spacious (68 m²) apartment has three double bedrooms (one with en suite shower room) and a well-equipped open-plan kitchen/dining/living area with an extremely comfortable and easy to setup double sofa-bed. There is a further bathroom (with full size bath) and a separate toilet. All linen, towels and bath robes are included.

The living area has a large double sofa, relaxing chairs plus stools and coffee table. Take a look at the apartment’s layout in the Information > Maps and layout section.

There is both WiFi (free of charge and only available to our guests) and a 43″ smart TV with English (including the essential Ceebeebies) and French channels and you can watch Netflix etc. using your own login. We even provide HDMI cables (mini and full size) so you can plug in a laptop for watching downloaded movies or doing family zoom meets!

There is a large cupboard for all the ski clothes and hooks by the door for everything else. There is a heated boot-room with lockable personal locker for all the ski-gear including pegs for 8 pairs of boots, and laundry facilities by the boot-room.

There is an outdoor car park opposite and multi-storey indoor parking nearby (Golf car park).
