Accommodation Review - Chalet Mazot - Les Coches/La Plagne - France

Les Coches – Chalet Mazot 1&2 – Mountain Sun

Chalet Mazot is situated in the small village of Les Coches, on the outskirts of the La Plagne Ski Area, and within 5 minutes skiing of the Vanoise Express connecting La Plagne to les Arcs.  The Chalet is run by Mountain Sun (http://www.mountainsunltd.com/short_breaks/) and in our opinion offers some of the best short break deals and accommodation that we have come across. 

Chalet Mazot 1
The accommodation is made up of 2 well equipped chalets which can sleep individuals, or larger groups in a variety of rooms.  Accommodation is basic, but very clean and perfect for a short break. The chalets share a communal dining area and lounge, where the excellent staff provide a hearty breakfast, afternoon tea and cake and great home cooked dinners which include wine.  The lounge are also offers a help yourself bar service and free wifi.

Les Coches is a small resort, and if you're looking for a lively Apres Ski then you should look elsewhere.  The chalet is situated a short walk from the village centre and in good conditions you can ski to within a very short walk of the door.

In summary this is an excellent, great value choice for a short ski break.  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, which was in late March, and the combination of La Plagne and Les Arc ski areas provide more than enough snow sure runs to keep the keenest skier or boarder happy.
