Ski France adds Résidence Les Épinettes, in the heart of the beautiful mountain village of Vaujany, France, to its growing portfolio

With its spacious modern apartments, heavenly pool and spa area, and spectacular mountain location, Résidence Les Épinettes has all the right ingredients for a perfect snowy getaway.

Showcasing a range of accommodation options from studios to three-bedroom apartments, the residence is the latest addition to leading ski specialist Ski France’s impressive range. Yet it’s also remarkably affordable: a week’s stay costs from as little as £261 for a self-catered studio apartment sleeping two people.

What’s more, with flexible arrival and departure dates, guests are not obliged to follow the traditional Saturday to Saturday protocol, allowing them to avoid main travel times and busy weekends at the airport.

Les Épinettes is situated in prime position, just minutes from Vaujany’s main cable car, shops, and restaurants. Perched on the mountainside at a snow-sure 1,250 metres altitude, Vaujany has easy access to 250 km of spectacular pistes, reaching an altitude of 3,300 m, and ranging from glistening glaciers to snow-dusted forests. The resort is part of the prestigious Alpe d’Huez grand domaine Ski area, renowned for its sunny aspect and abundance of gentle greens and blues. Thrill-seekers won’t be disappointed with its selection of hair-raising black runs, including the iconic 16 km long Sarenne – the longest black piste in the Alps.

Vaujany itself is a truly authentic mountain village, which has escaped over-development and retained its original charm. Once the skis are off, guests can spend the evenings exploring its winding lanes home to traditional restaurants serving fondue and other local specialities, as well as an ice rink and bowling alley for entertaining little ones. Non-skiers can try snowshoeing in the surrounding forest and admire the breath-taking views of the Grandes Rousses Massif.

The residence’s well-appointed apartments range from cosy studios which are perfect for a couple, to generous three-bedroom apartments with enough space for a family of eight. Each accommodation features its own fully equipped kitchenette, modern bathroom, television, and balcony or terrace with magnificent views. Free Wi-Fi is provided as standard.

Guests can also enjoy the wellness area, complete with an indoor swimming pool, warming hammam, and steaming sauna. Designed with natural stone and local wood, it’s the perfect place to relax after an exhilarating day on the mountains. Alternatively, skiers and snowboarders wanting to burn a few extra calories, or stretch after a day on the slopes, can head to the well-stocked gym.

Since Ski France’s beginnings, more than 30 years ago, its mission has always been to provide hassle-free holidays with personalised customer service. Therefore, guests of Résidence Les Épinettes**** have access to discounted ski passes and equipment with top providers. Ski France staff can also share expert local knowledge including recommendations to the best restaurants or après-ski activities.

Reaching Vaujany couldn’t be easier, thanks to Ski France’s own airport transfer service, MV Transport. Guests arriving at Geneva, Lyon, Grenoble or Chambéry airport, can meet their driver in the arrivals hall and be whisked up the mountain in a comfortable, winter-adapted minibus. Alternatively, guests wishing to bring their own vehicle or hire a car will find car parking available at the residence.
