As early as 1965, our parents began welcoming holidaymakers to Le Grand Bornand, in a chalet that our father had built himself: 'Les Congères', so named because there was a lot of blown snow in the area, which insulated the farms in winter. Since then, my brother Patrice and I have taken over the business from our parents, while at the same time seeking to evolve the concept to offer luxury accommodation. My husband Anthony joined us when we built the Meringue and Macaron chalets in Le Grand Bornand. Anthony and I live in Manigod and love this calm, sunny valley. We wanted to develop our business in this village that we love so much. We imagined large living spaces, comfortable rooms and play areas. Our aim is to offer our guests top-quality services in spacious accommodation that will enable them to bring family and friends together in a heavenly setting. Muriel and Anthony

Chalet Nougat comfortably accommodates up to 14 (or even 15) guests in 6 bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. Upstairs, the spacious living area features a fully-equipped kitchen, a dining table that can accommodate 14-15 guests at mealtimes, and a large living room with TV, coiled up next to the stove. The ping pong table and games console are real extras in this chalet. The south-facing side of the chalet has a large balcony where you can enjoy your meals or relax in your jacuzzi, watching the sun disappear behind the mountains. Chalet Nougat is just a few minutes' drive from the Col de la Croix-Fry, the starting point for the Manigod and La Clusaz ski resorts. Parking is free, but you can also leave your car at the chalet and take the free shuttle bus to the resort, which stops just 100 m away. Cross-country skiers will find plenty of trails to choose from, especially on the nearby Plateau de Beauregard. Non-skiers are not forgotten either: ice rinks and cinemas in La Clusaz and Le Grand Bornand, tobogganing, snowshoeing, dog sledding and even horse-drawn ski-joering. In summer, there's plenty to do: hiking, mountain biking, via ferrata, adventure courses, canyonin...

Just 1 hour from Geneva airport, Chalet Caramel is located in the heart of an unspoilt valley, just a few minutes' walk from the pretty village of Manigod. You'll find a bakery where you can buy bread and croissants, as well as a bar-restaurant and a grocery store selling local produce. Other shops await you in Thônes, La Clusaz or Le Grand Bornand.
