Ski Chalets & Winter Villas in France
It includes catered and self-catered ski chalets in the French Alps, plus cosy off-season villas in the South of France. It suits skiing trips, festive Christmas and New Year breaks, and quiet winter escapes, with properties for families, groups and couples.
We have found these 88 villas for you

Winter opens up two very different sides of France, and our winter collection covers both. In the French Alps, we have catered and self-catered chalets close to the slopes, from family-friendly apartments to luxury chalets with a hot tub and a log fire. Down south, the off-season brings mild days, empty markets and a fraction of the summer price, which makes a cosy South of France villa a lovely quiet escape or a festive base for Christmas and New Year. Every property is hand-picked and, wherever possible, visited in person by our team since 2006, so you know what you are booking.

Ski Chalets in France
Our ski chalets in France span the great resorts of the French Alps, from compact family chalets a short walk from the lifts to substantial properties for a group of friends who want to ski together and gather round one long table each evening. We can place you in the Les Trois Vallees, the Portes du Soleil, the Espace Killy and beyond. Every ski chalet France we list is chosen for location as much as comfort, because ten extra minutes to the lift matters more in ski boots than anywhere else. Tell us your resort, your dates and how many beds you need, and we will shortlist the chalets that fit.
Catered and Self-Catered Chalets
A catered chalet in France means someone else cooks the evening meal, clears up and lights the fire while you ski, which makes a catered chalet France the natural choice for a treat or a large group who would rather not think about logistics. Self-catered gives you freedom and better value, ideal for families who prefer their own routine and their own budget for meals. We offer both, and we are always honest about which resorts have the stronger choice of each.
Chalet Rental in France on Any Budget
Not every winter trip is about ski-in ski-out luxury. A simple chalet France rental, warm, well placed and sensibly priced, is often the smartest booking of all, especially in the quieter weeks either side of the school holidays. Our ski chalet rental France options run from good-value apartments and modest chalets right up to five-bedroom properties with a hot tub, sauna and log fire. Give us a budget, and we will find the honest best within it.
Festive and New Year Breaks
For Christmas and New Year, a large villa or chateau gives everyone room to celebrate together, whether that is a proper family Christmas around a real fire or a New Year's Eve with a dozen friends. These weeks are the first to sell out across both the Alps and the South, so plan well ahead.

Winter in the South of France
Away from the mountains, the off-season South is gentle, quiet and inexpensive. Provence and the Cote d'Azur in winter mean walking, markets and long lunches at a fraction of the summer price, an easy warm-ish base away from the crowds. Many owners keep a villa open year-round, so a mild winter escape in the South is more available than most people expect.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer catered and self-catered chalets?
Yes. Catered chalets include cooking and cleaning; self-catered chalets give you freedom and better value. Tell us which you prefer.
Which ski resorts do you cover?
We work across the French Alps. Tell us your preferred resort or dates and we will match you to chalets nearby. If we do not have the right property, we will say so honestly.
Can we spend Christmas or New Year in a villa?
Yes. Larger villas and chateaux are popular for festive gatherings. They book up early, so secure one several months ahead.
Is the South of France worth visiting in winter?
For a quiet, mild escape with markets, walks and empty villages, yes, and prices are far lower than summer. It is not a beach holiday, but it is a lovely off-season break.
Are the chalets suitable for families?
Many are. Ask us for chalets with family layouts, ski-in ski-out convenience or easy access to lifts and ski schools.
How far ahead should we book a ski chalet?
For peak ski weeks and the festive period, book six months or more ahead. Shoulder-season weeks can sometimes be found later and often at better prices.
How much does a ski chalet in France cost?
It ranges widely, from good-value self-catered apartments to catered luxury chalets with a hot tub. Peak and festive weeks cost most. Give us a budget and we will find the best chalet within it.
What is the cheapest way to ski in France?
A self-catered chalet rental in a smaller resort, booked outside the school holidays, is usually the best value. Tell us your dates and we will show the most affordable options.
