OVO Network is the market leader in premium chalet rentals in authentic mountain destinations. Chalet Piccolo is an OVO Network property. The OVO Network team’s opinion - Chalet Piccolo, in Saint-Nicolas-de-Véroce, is a three-storey, detached chalet for up to 14 guests (max 10 adults and 4 children), with six bedrooms, each with their own shower or bathroom. Despite its name, there's nothing small about this well-appointed chalet - there are three double bedrooms and a bunk room for four on the lower ground floor, and two stunning master suites on the top floor, each with a spacious bath and shower room, a desk and access on to a terrace where you can enjoy the breathtaking views of the Mont Blanc mountains. The bright and airy living area is on the ground floor. There's a large, modular sofa and chairs around the fire, a quiet chess table and a large dining table where you can all eat together. Preparing meals is a pleasure in the open-plan kitchen, which has an oven, induction hob, dishwasher and microwave, as well as a fridge freezer. There's a large central island with room for food prep at one end and a breakfast bar with stools at the other. Doors lead from here on to the covered terrace, where you can enjoy a barbecue or a drink while the sun sets. There's a well-equipped ski room on the ground floor, with a central bench, plenty of storage for all of your outdoor clothing and a heated boot rack. And the sauna is right next door, so you can come straight off the piste and into the sauna! Free wifi, cleaning, towels & linen included.

Saint-Gervais, along with nearby Les Contamines, Combloux and Megève, are part of the Évasion Mont-Blanc ski area. For even more choice, it's a 30-minute drive to the Espace Diamant, which comprises Praz-sur-Arly, Bellecombe, Crest-Voland, Flumet, and Les Saisies. Experienced skiers looking for some stunning night skiing should head for the Vallée Blanche – do hire a guide for this 23km run which, with a 2,000m drop, will take you from the Aiguille du Midi to the Mer de Glace, an almost surreal experience under a full moon. For a change from skiing, why not try dog-sledding or snow-shoe walking, which are both available within a short drive of Chalet Piccolo. For a little more adventure, why not try ice climbing, via ferrata or paragliding. When the snow melts, the mountains become the domain of walkers and cyclists. There's so much to see in this varied landscape – explore the Argentière glacier or perhaps the Baroque footpath, a 20km trail from Combloux to Les Contamines-Montjoie, which takes you past some of the area's finest baroque buildings. Look out for marmots along the way! On a hot day, head for the swimming lake in Combloux or the Lac de Passy, where you can relax in the pure waters fed by mountain streams and surrounded by wild flowers and stunning views of Mont Blanc. Take a picnic and relax while the kids enjoy the great play area. There's also a treetop adventure course, pedalos and mini-golf as well as windsurfing, paddle boarding and fishing –  it's a great family day out. An excursion to Mont Blanc is not to be missed – the scenic Mont Blanc Tramway, a rack and pinion railway will take you to the foot of the Bionnassay Glacier at a height of 2,372m.
