Our opinion
Ferme de la Forêt is an impressive property that successfully combines the character of a historic alpine farmhouse with a high-end contemporary renovation. The layout has been well thought out, dedicating the entire top floor to a private master suite, while the independent accommodation above the garage offers excellent flexibility for hosting guests or housing staff. The most impressive part is the beautiful garden and forest surrounding the chalet, where you can take a dip in the outdoor pool and take in the great views, knowing you are in one of the most private and calm properties in the Chamonix Valley.
