Food and Drink

We both enjoy good food and take pleasure out of producing a menu that is well presented, varied and uses lots of fresh ingredients.

We believed that after a day on the slopes you need tasty food with reasonable size portions.  Much of the menu is based on good farmhouse cooking (Suzanne's background) with more modern ingredients and French cuisine enhancing it. 

One of the highlights of the week is our Savoyard evening with local dishes of Tartiflette served with a variety of good local Savoyard Wines (e.g. Apremont, Chinin Bergeron, Gamay etc).

Breakfast Selection

Fresh orange juice, selection of cereals, fresh fruit bowl, yogurts, porridge, freshly baked baguette with local confitures.

Daily selection of cooked breakfast (e.g. bacon and eggs, smoked salmon and scrambled eggs) or fresh croissant and pain au chocolate

Pots of filter coffee and english breakfast tea.

Tea - First one home puts on the kettle for Tea and a slice of Suzane's homemade cakes (Lemon Drizzle, Millionaires Shortbread, Apple Crumble Cake).

Dinner is a special part of the day - a well prepared Three course meal accompanied by good quality French White and Red wine selected by Mark based on our travels through France.

Mark and Suzanne at work in the kitchen. If you wish to eat out on a second night during the week or have a fourth course (cheese board) - please discuss when booking.  NEW this winter - For non peak weeks - (e.g New Year and Half term) we will be doing a simpler evening meal on one night - Fresh Soup followed by a regional cheese and Pate Board, with home made chutney, as i know that lots of you perfer a more relaxed evening meal after lots of lunches.
