Created by theatre impresario Philippe Courtines, this chalet is a feast of colour, texture and design - antiques are complemented by modern technological touches and the result is wonderful.

Chalet Les Grandes Jorasses is the largest of this unique collection of chalets which belong to the private little hamlet in Le Lavancher, half-way between Le Praz and Argentiere in Chamonix. All the chalets in the hamlet are frequently featured in design features in magazines and on television and they can either be rented individually or all together to sleep up to twenty adults and six children. Its creator, theatre impresario Philippe Courtines, has been building this masterpiece for the last twenty years and his passion and creativity is unrivalled.

Chalet Les Grandes Jorasses is unique and hand-crafted from antique wood to give a truly magical feel to the whole setting. Antiques adorn the property but modern features such as a state-of-the-art cinema, high definition TV’s and designer bathroom fittings are cleverley integrated with the old so there is no clash of style but benefits from the best of both genres and the ultimate in luxury and comfort is achieved.

The chalet is situated in the beautiful enclave of Le Lavancher, which has a spectacular southwest facing position overlooking the Chamonix Valley giving unrivalled views as well as plentiful sunshine.

A short chauffeured drive of 5 minutes’ gets you to the famous ski area of Les Grandes Montets with Chamonix centre being only a 7 minute chauffeured drive away.

Chalet Les Grandes Jorasses is perfect for families, groups of friends and small corporate groups. When combined with the other chalets to form the hamlet of the Chalets Philippes this is a unique venue for the most perfect private Alpine party.
