The Casale is incredibly popular with guests - a nice mix of a traditional chalet with the size and facilities (i.e. a bar) of a small hotel. This creates a nice buzz around the chalet at après-ski, when the bar is open and the drinks are flowing. The Casale has been lovingly converted from an old barn. Many of the original beams have been kept which gives a wonderful warm feel to the place. The large dining room is equally charming, with its long tables for chalet-style meals and more wooden rafters adding to the warming feel. Each of the bedrooms is a really good size, with plenty of light and space to make you feel right at home.
