Bonjour from the French Alps

Ever feel like getting away to a beautiful location recharge the batteries?

The wonderful alpine village of St Martin de Belleville high up in the French Alps might just be the place.

Attached to the famous 3 Valleys resort (including Courcheval, Meribel and Val Thorens), St Martin de Belleville is a small village with an older French feel, which is inexpensive and virtually guarantees fantastic snow in the northern winter months.

Access is easy – the ski train transports passengers direct from London to Moutiers at the foot of the 3 Valleys. A short bus or taxi ride lands you in St Martin, one of the most beautiful locations in the world.

Alternatively, fly into Geneva or Lyon for a 2 hour bus ride direct to St Martin.

The fantastic mountain peaks of La Masse, Mont Vallon, Saulire and Cime Carp are all easily accessible from the village – guaranteeing snow for all levels of ability.

If lucky, like us, you might get to experience some powder skiing of the highest quality – an experience guaranteed to put a big smile on your face.
