Seytroux and Le Cret are south facing. The apartment sleeps max 10 people and has stunning views out to the surrounding mountains, looking down into the beautiful valley of Seytroux and the town of St Jean D’Aulps. The penthouse apartment is large, spacious and sunny. A superb renovation completed in 2014, lots of character beams as well as a great modern finish. Underfloor heating and all modern amenities .

There are many activities close by for skiers, walkers, cyclists, mountain bikers, horse riders, kayakers, river rafting and lots of family activities. Lakes at Montriond (10 minutes away) and Les Gets with plenty of restaurants and shopping in the surrounding areas. Le Cret is a peaceful hamlet but close to all the activity.

excellent sejour
la propriété est très propre. un grand salon qui donne sur une vue magnifique. un super endroit pour se ressourcer en famille ou entre amis.
l'appartement est à 10 mns environ en voiture de la station de ski saint Jean d'aulps. il y a aussi des lacs et des villages sympas aux alentours.
les propriétaires sont gentils et disponibles, ils n'hésitent pas à donner des conseils pour preparer et passer un bon séjour.
