Description
This is a catered chalet company in the French Alps run by myself and my husband Simon and his mum, Judith.
We have been running for 10 years and pride ourselves on providing holidays for families and friends that offer a personal service. You spend a lot of time with the guests so you become part of their holiday. It is a joy to create beautiful food for people and to share a glass with the groups in the evening, even ski together.
During covid we started operating for a different chalet and we now need two people to help keep the high standard of service up for our guests - could you help be that person?
