Verbier, Val de Bagnes, Switzerland
Starting at €38,750 per Week (Full catered)
This sumptuous luxury chalet in Verbier is truly a gem in this Swiss ski resort’s crown. Sleeping up to 16 adults and four children, Chalet Cassiopeia is perfect for larger groups and extended families. A combination of two neighbouring properties, and at over 950sqm, there’s plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy some quiet time, as well as have fun altogether, and make memories to last a lifetime.
Across both chalets are two gorgeous, cosy sitting rooms. Both enjoy uninterrupted views across the Mont Blanc Massif, and are warmed by huge feature fireplaces. The interiors were designed by leading interiors specialists from London, and they have been furnished in an elegant country style; think herringbone tweeds, reclaimed wood and bespoke, custom-made British furniture. The comfortable ambience is elevated by characteristically homely lighting and a Sonos music system throughout. The main dining room is a feast for the senses, where gourmet dining is accompanied by alpine sunsets through the dual aspect windows.
On warmer days, make the most of the extensive sun terrace. Here, you’ll find an array of comfortable seating, a firepit, loungers and alfresco dining for the whole group. There really is nothing better that breakfast under the mountain sun whilst you plan your day’s skiing routes down the nearby pistes.
The wellness facilities at Chalet Cassiopeia are second-to-none. An enormous 15m swimming pool is one of the largest ski chalet pools in Verbier. Alternatively, there’s a steam room to revive well-worked ski muscles, and an outdoor hot tub for soaking under the stars. The chalet’s games room comes complete with ping pong and table football, and the cinema room is perfect for a bedtime movie for children! Enjoy après or after dinner drinks without venturing out of the chalet; it has its own fully-stocked bar/TV room, where you can also catch any unmissable sporting events taking place during your stay.
Each of the main eight bedrooms have super-king double/twin beds for complete flexibility, and naturally each of them is en-suite. Neutral tones and natural materials ensure a calming and relaxed atmosphere, and the master suite in the eaves of the chalet is truly spectacular. Each bedroom has a terrace or balcony, perfect for a quiet moment enjoying the view at the start of the day. The ninth bedroom is a children’s bunk room that sleeps four. This lovely hideaway has comfortable, custom-built beds, an en-suite, a television, and beanbags for chilling out.
Chalet Cassiopeia has underground parking for 12 cars, and an adjacent ski/boot room. An internal lift goes from the garage to the chalet’s ground floor.
