It's steeped in history and a joy to visit. Explore the vast pistes of Les Portes du Soleil... return to log fires and house-party dinners

Wake to a proper cooked breakfast, and a day of adventure in Les Portes du Soleil. The hotel's minibus takes you to the lifts, for gentle tree-lined pistes shared with Les Gets, and innumerable forays beyond.

The enchanting Mas de la Coutettaz, the oldest building in Morzine, lies at the quiet end of town, a short walk from shops, cafes and après ski bars. James and his team go above and beyond to make each homecoming special, from afternoon tea and cakes by the crackling fire, to dinner at the huge table. Look forward to a four-course 'menu fixe' every evening with wine, illuminated by candelabras. Chocolates and coffees follow... and Dorrien joins in whenever he can.

Bedrooms, big, quirky and characterful, lie at the top of the stone stair; go for a mountain view. Beds are super comfortable, soaps are from L'Occitane, and staff have oodles of charm.

Local points of interest from James Wakelin:

Punti d'interesse locali da
James Wakelin:

  • In the winter months Morzine offers one of the best ski areas in the world. Les Portes du Soleil is a major ski sports destination in the Alps, encompassing thirteen resorts between Mont Blanc in France and Lake Geneva in Switzerland.
  • The Morzine leisure centre is just down the road from us. This is an Olympic size swimming pool, giant 80 metre water slide, bouncy castle, beach volley ball, indoor pool and spa with saunas and Turkish baths.
  • Fantasticable: This is the only zip wire of its kind in the Alps. Two 1,200 metres cables which shoot you across the Plaine Dranse valley and back again. At one point you are 240 metres from the valley floor! A must for any adrenaline junkie!
  • The beautiful lake Montriond is well worth visiting. Whether it be to walk around it, swim in it, paddle through it or just soak up the sunshine. Features:
