If you need gloves or a hat etc there is a plethora of choices as you walk through Morzine and down to the Rue Du Bourg. Intersport has the largest choice but Slopestyle and the Woods are popular with locals (all on the Rue Du Bourg).

If you have not booked in advance with Ski-Mobile and they can’t get to you quick enough, we also get a 20% discount through Caribou Skiset. To get to Caribou Skiset, turn right out of the chalet and cross the road to Bec Jean, go past the front of Bec Jean and turn left down Combe a Zore. After 100m the shop will be on your right.

Children’s Introduction to snow

(3 years old)

Club PiouPiou by ESF is located right at the base of the Pleney lift and conveniently located within walking distance of our central Morzine chalets. This is an excellent way for the next generation to be introduced to skis and snow and get working on that balance!

Children’s Ski School

(4 years +)

Let us introduce you to The Snow School by ESF. Described as a ‘Premium ski school in Morzine’ and popular with all our guests, this is a great and successful introduction to winter sports for your child.

• For children 4+
• A group size of 4 -6
• Instructors who speak English and are all very experienced at teaching children.
• A great price too!

At the end of the week your child will be tested to see if they will graduate to the next level, they may gain a badge and a certificate or they may not. If you would prefer for your child not to be a part of this system, it is best to opt for private lessons.

The meeting point for the Ski School is at the bottom of the Pleney telecabine where you meet at their office for the first day. This is just 300m from Chalet George and is straightforward to find. The ski school will give you directions but your chalet hosts will also happily help advise how to get there.

Dietary Allergies

Please do let us know if you have any medical dietary requirements that your chef should know about. All our team are trained to manage allergens in the kitchen and we also have a complete free-from menu. We understand the absolute importance of delivering your foodie ski free from the menu in a way that provides you with complete confidence. Therefore, if you would like to speak to Sophie, our ‘free from chef ‘ who creates the free-from menu, she will gladly talk you through the Skiology kitchen practices and team procedures to give you peace of mind.

Dietary preferences

Our Skiology chalets are all set menu chalets where the menu has been carefully crafted by our team in line with our Passion for Good Food ethos. We have set menu options for the major allergies and preferences mentioned above. However, anything outside of this becomes tricky to cater to in the mountains. So please do get in touch well in advance of your holiday if you wish to make specific menu requests and be aware that this may be subject to additional fees.

Team Days Off

The team days off in most cases are Tuesday and Friday. The night before they will lay out a buffet breakfast with instructions. The team can also book a restaurant for you for the evening meal, our favourite restaurants are in this book. Please do ask the team to book within the first 2 nights of your stay so that they have more of a chance of securing your first choice.    

Our Top Restaurant Recommendations

Clin d’Oeil
‘A touch of South West cuisine in the Alps’. Chef own and run means consistently good quality at the Clin d’Oeil. A lovely of fusion of local dishes and dishes from the South West of France. 

La Ferme de la Fruitiere
Artisan cheese makers create the cheese in the adjoining dairy for you to try at this spectacular cheese restaurant.  A beautiful traditional stone and wooden cosy interior with a roaring open fire and huge window make this restaurant a special place to have lunch or dinner. Most popular for its cheese however also serves some traditional French cuisine. 

Le Grange
Great food in a lovely, old converted barn, a romantic destination that we often recommend for couples.  

L’Etale
The longest menu in town! Most guests choose L’Etale as you are sure to find something for everyone including pizza and all-you-can-eat fondue, raclette and hot stone! 

La Rotonde Restaurant
Sister restaurant to L’Etale, a little calmer than L’Etale. Steph and Dom’s default choice some of our family favourites are ribs, ladies steak, pizza Italian and Thai beef salad! 

La Charmade
A bit like marmite, guests have said this is both the best and worst restaurant in Morzine. If you have been before the restaurant had recently has massively been renovated and now has an open plan kitchen with chef’s dining table and quirky downstairs wine bar.

Hotel du lac
An included return taxi ride away, set on the serene Lac De Montriond, a spot for those in the know this winter. Hotel du lac is a  newly refurbished hideout away from the bustle of Morzine. With an inventive menu of ethically sourced gastro classics such as “Local Pan fried trout, tomato, beurre blanc, herb gnocchi & herb salad” vegetarian and vegan alternatives.

Hide out hostel
One of our team’s favourite hangouts. Asian street food with different weekly specials. You may recognise former team member Oscar from our chalets La Roche and L’Isiere who heads up the kitchen here and continues his legacy of 6/5 food. Great vibe, great food and sympathetic to vegetarians and vegans.

We recommend that you secure your booking online with your restaurant. Alternatively, we are happy to assist in making the reservation. The team nights off are Tuesday and Friday. (*Christmas and New Year: Thursday and Monday are the given team days off).

Why not switch the protein for one of your meals during your stay from meat to a lower carbon footprint option with our Chick Free Pie! Popular on our free-from menu leading with the highest feedback from guests, give it a go not just for the planet but for your foodie dining experience too! 🙂

Let us know via email prior to your stay if you would like to choose this option and we will let your chef know.

Unless requested, we will not provide a mid-week towel change. It is not a commonly requested service from guests and so in a bid to reduce our carbon footprint, we have not added a towel change as standard.

However, in our pursuit of having the lowest carbon footprint of ski chalets in the Alps, we will not let this be to the detriment of our guests. Therefore, should you wish to have a mid-week towel change, please note it in the guest requirements section of the online booking form. We will ask for a donation of €5pp which will go to Cool Earth, a charity that helps us offset our carbon footprint.
