Le Village - Arc 1950, France
Feel right at the heart of mountain life in The Arc 1950 Le Village – a far cry from your standard self-catering pick. Designed by the same developers as Canada’s famous Whistler resort, Arc 1950 has a buzzing, pedestrianised centre, a traditional alpine-village feel and blow-you-away views of the mountains. At its heart are these high-end, chalet-style apartments, spread out across seven buildings as part of a huge complex of restaurants, shops and cafes. The whole place is ski-in, ski-out too – a dream if you’re the type who loves to step out the front door and ski the day away.
Whether you’re wintering as a couple, family or gang of up to eight, finding an apartment to suit your needs is a breeze. Each comes with a fully-kitted kitchen and dining space – so after stocking up at the local supermarket or boulangerie, you can enjoy whipping up your own mountain meals. And you won’t need to worry about making up beds or cleaning at the end of your stay – that’s all taken care of.
Whichever apartment you go for, time in an outdoor heated pool is on the cards – some even with Mont Blanc views. But for post-piste relaxation that takes it up a notch, you might want to treat yourself to a sesh in the Deep Nature Spa. It's an all-out R&R haven, with a variety of grotto-styled pools, saunas and relaxation areas – and of course offering massages and treatments too. Also for a little extra is Yeti Camp, where youngsters can have bags of fun igloo building, sled racing and more.
