OVO Network specialises in beautiful, hand-picked luxury properties for unique stays in the French Alps. Chalet Ladroit is an OVO Network property. If you're looking for a very special 5 star property in a quiet spot just a short drive from the Aravis pistes, then look no further. The OVO Network team’s opinion - This unique farmhouse close to the village of Les Clefs was built in 1827 by a nobleman from Chambery who wanted a mountain retreat for occasional visits. You'll need a car (with snow tyres and chains in the winter), but the stunning views from the chalet make the drive more than worth it. The nearest shops are a five-minute drive away in Thônes. Covered steps lead up from the car park to the front door which opens on to the open plan living area – a well equipped kitchen with a huge range cooker, a large dining table which easily seats 12, and a cosy seating area, with a flat screen television and doors on to the terrace. From the lounge you will access the sauna, the hammam and the indoor heated pool, as well as another double bedroom, a shower room and independent WC. The outside space is a real feature of this property, with a large sunny terrace perfect for catching some sun and a covered dining area seating 12, which can be used all year round – the perfect place for enjoying dinner while the sun sets behind the mountains. Free wifi, cleaning, towels & linen included.

Chalet Ladroit is in Les Clefs, close to Thônes and Manigod/Croix Fry and on the road up to the Col de Plan Bois. Access to the Aravis ski area, with its 220km of pistes to suit all abilities, is easiest from the D12 then the D16 through Manigod village. Although it's a drive to the pistes, access roads and the drive are cleared regularly, making the journey fairly quick, but you'll need snow chains. The resorts of Le Grand Bornand and La Clusaz are also easily accessible. There's a great choice of cross-country skiing, snow-shoe walking around the La Tournette mountain and walking trails, some of which begin at the front door. For the ultimate in winter fun, try dog-sledding, paragliding on skis, horse-drawn sleigh rides or ski joering - skiing while being towed by a horse! Non-skiers are not forgotten in winter, with the indoor and outdoor swimming pools in La Clusaz, ice skating rinks and cinemas, and sophisticated shopping in nearby Annecy and Geneva.
