Villa Rose is not your ordinary ski chalet or summer retreat. This stately town house (former boutique hotel) is now a beloved family home, set in the centre of the historic village of Samoens. To be enjoyed at all time of year, a perfect base for skiing in winter and mountain biking, climbing, paragliding and swimming in summer. Sleeps a maximum of 12 guests in 6 ensuite bedrooms. Retaining luxurious fixtures and furnishings throughout, Villa Rose hearkens to its historic past with high ceilings, tall French windows and doors, and an air of old-world elegance throughout. The piece de resistance is undoubtedly an original painted wood panelled sunroom with stained glass windows, perfect for sipping champagne or curling up with a book and hot tea... Villa Rose first welcomes guests with a grand hallway and large comfortable sitting room at raised ground floor level, where a fireplace and gorgeous sunroom beckon relaxation. A sweeping staircase takes guests to the house’s lovely and spacious first floor kitchen and bar area, well stocked with restaurant standard equipment and tableware.
