Descripción
Hello/Salut,
Looking for space and beauty? We are a couple who have recently bought a house in the French Alps. It is a very beautiful area with lots of opportunities for outdoor activities. The house is comfortable and spacious.
We are 3 km away from a busy French market town so although it is quiet and rural in our little place there are lots of other activities going on in the area. We are very near to Chamonix/st Gervais/Megeve with all the winter sports they offer as well as the Aravis mountain range behind us. If you like to; hike/cycle/climb/ski/paraglide/run- this may be the place for you. We have a workshop space as well so there is opportunities for quieter and more creative work as well.
We are looking for positive people to come and enjoy the area as well as offering us help with the house and garden. We can offer help with learning/practising English ( we are learning French ourselves so happy to have help with that) and there is good WI-FI.
We have a young dog who is great and has lots of energy so dog walking possibilities if you would enjoy that.
We welcome people who are kind, flexible and who want to explore the beautiful area as well as help out in the life of the house.

We had a beautiful, serene and educational time in the mountains of Sallanches with Deidre, Etuka, and Domhnall (lovely dog). Their warm and welcoming space offers breathtaking views, trails that always call for an adventure, homemade and amazing meals, as well as opportunities to assist in the garden, household tasks and other creative projects.… read more
