Property Description

This quality beautifully decorated two bedroom ski apartment with family bathroom, makes an ideal ski base for those looking for an authentic village feel whilst enjoying the world renowned skiing of the Three Valleys. The light airy living area with open fireplace is further enhanced by the adjoining sunny terrace with views of the Vallée des Encombres.


The apartment also has a garage and ski locker and the communal area of the building has a pool room, gym and table tennis room.


The location is less than a 3 or 4 minute walk in normal shoes to the village centre but would take a little longer to the ski lift, perhaps 8 to 10 minutes in ski boots carrying skis, as it’s uphill. However as you have your own generous garage underneath the building it is easy to drive up to the free parking opposite the gondola which takes you up to link into the Meribel and Courchevel ski areas as well as giving easy access to the rest of the Belleville valley which includes Les Menuires and Val Thorens, the highest ski resort in France.The winter season stretches from Dec 12th 09 to April 25th 10, but you can extend this if you drive up to Val Thorens which opens from Nov 21st 09 and closes in Mid May – A very nice bonus for the keen skier!!


Out of the total twelve apartments there are just 2 remaining. The building is located in a pretty area of St Martin de Belleville where locals still keep their cows and chickens in vaulted rooms under their houses giving a very relaxed and authentic feel to the place. The village itself is a small community with some decent restaurants and bars. Not the glitz of neighbouring Meribel and Courchevel but the locals know how to have fun and there are live bands most nights. Roads are kept clear all winter and you have your own generous garage space underneath of 14,85m2. The shared communal space includes a lift, stairways and communal pool (game), table tennis and gym rooms.


Travel and Transfers Nearest international airports: Chambery is approx 1.15 hours away with Geneva/Lyon/Grenoble all approx 2 hours away. To drive: From the channel ports it takes approx 9 hours on the autoroutes to the foot of the mountains. Then the climb up to St Martin takes about 15-20mins, more on transfer days. By train: The Eurostar and snow train arrive in Moutiers station at the foot of the mountains.

Saint Martin de Belleville

Resort Description

Based at 1400m and directly linked into the vast Three Valleys network by an 8 person gondola, St Martin de Belleville offers unlimited, world-class skiing. The village is picture perfect, unspoiled and authentic making St Martin de Belleville the perfect ski resort if you are looking for a taste of authentic France combined with state of the art skiing. Clusters of traditional chalets and original Savoyard farmhouses are dominated by the close mountains with chamois and wild boars roaming free in the surrounding forests. St Martin was voted a “Top Ten Picture Postcard resort” for its pretty, traditional architecture and stunning Alpine scenery, it’s interesting to note that the commune have had the foresight to bury all the electric and phone cabling which means that not only does it have a clean uncluttered look, but you are unlikely to lose power when the snow hits! As an added bonus Val Thorens, officially the highest resort in Europe is situated at the top of the valley offering great skiing from mid-November to mid-May. St Martin also has some of the best and clearest runs in the Three Valleys; with skiing for all levels back down to the village and red run Jerusalem a firm favourite with many, and the confidence inspiring off-piste powder fields have to be experienced to be believed. In the height of summer during July and August the valley is host to walkers, nature lovers and adventure seekers who arrive to enjoy the traditional and less traditional mountain activities along with the colourful mountain meadows and beauty of the contrasting vibrant green against snow capped mountains. It is also a near neighbour to the Vanoise Park, a protected area of outstanding natural beauty. St Martin de Belleville has a lower key nightlife than its glitzy neighbours. Having said that, the valley boasts two Michelin starred restaurants, one being situated three minutes from the village, the other in Val Thorens. St Martin itself has several friendly bars and restaurants which retain a mountain village atmosphere with prices to match. It seems ideal for ski and mountain lovers looking for an authentic atmosphere a little apart from the crowds, and out of season it still has life and enough year round residents to stop it feeling like a ghost town.
