The Grand Massif ski area is home to Flaine, one of the top snow sure resorts in France with a distinct absence of annoying queues.
It offers 265kms of ski runs with spectacular views of Mont Blanc. From purpose-built town of Flaine to Samoens, the only ski village registered as an historical monument, Le Grand Massif is rich in activity, architecture and history.
There is a great selection of terrain for all levels and with Mont Blanc always in view, the setting here is perfect for a no-fuss ski experience unlike many others.
We offer catered accommodation in our luxury chalet with awesome views of the Giffre valley. Prices start from £350 p.p.p.w
If you're looking for stylish accommodation with great ski-ing check out our website www.skifusion.co.uk for more information.

we used to have an apartment in Morillon and I highly rate the the Grand Massif area.
Interesting point, Samoens is a nice town, one of the nicest ski centres in France although maybe not fantastically convenient by some ski-in/ski-out standards. What's really interesting is that there's a thousand web sites and brochures that repeat the claim that it's listed as an "historical monument", but, as far as I can tell it's not true :!:
As far as I know the French body that does this is "Centre des monuments nationaux" which used to be the "Caisse Nationale des Monuments Historiques". In the current form it doesn't list either Samoens or anything in Samoens. Maybe once it did? Weird though, you hear that so many times and I'm not at all sure it's true! :)
I'm fascinated if anyone knows the basis of the claim?
