Savalin alpine chalet 180m², in the heart of the Alps
Description
Situated on the shores of Lake Mont Cenis, on the border between Savoie and Italy in the alpine pastures at 2000 m altitude, the chalet built by great-grandfather Séraphin (1878) welcomes 15 guests in summer to discover the art of mountain living that rhymes with the authenticity of old larch and stone... to the sounds of whistling marmots and cowbells.
