STE FOY OVERVIEW:
Sainte Foy has just had new ski lifts put in to double the size of the ski area and open up a wealth of new blue and green runs on the western side of the mountain. The resort is one of the most exclusive ski resorts in France. Of all our resorts, Sainte Foy is really quite different, in fact it is a bit of a gem! If you know much about skiing then you will have read about the fantastic pistes and the virgin snow quality of Sainte Foy.... In fact most of the guests that we take to Sainte Foy each season, end up at the pool sainte foylocal estate agency looking for a second home at some point of their week!

Often referred to as the “Jewel in the Crown” Sainte Foy is surrounded by the world's most famous resorts: Tignes, Les Arcs and Val D'Isere, which are all within a 15-20 minute drive away, and included on the standard ski pass for 2 days thus giving guests the ultimate in variety. There are about 150 hectares of slopes in Sainte Foy, and what there is, is excellent quality and totally crowd free. It's especially ideal for families.

SKIING IN STE FOY:
Sainte Foy is not a destination for bucket loads of ski holiday tourists because the resort only comprises of rather high end chalets (there are no hotels). The fact that there are no hotels or cheap lodgings, deters the larger Tour Operators and so the skiing and resort remains unspolit, crowd free and very exclusive.

Imagine skiing around a resort and not having to put up with ski schools, congested slopes, hordes of tourists and lift queues? Bliss! Well, here you can sit on the slopes in the peak of February and not see a soul pass you for minutes on end! This means that not only is it perfect for unhindered skiing and boarding, but the slopes stay in immaculate order. The Powder snow is also in good supply and hardly gets tracked at all!

There are 6 or 7 fast red runs and about 10 blue runs of which are very long (summit to base). There is also an extensive network of green runs which wind around the resort - offering beginners a wealth of opportunity to explore the mountain with easy skiing. There is also 3 separate nursery slopes for children with a free travelator (ski lift) for kids.*

Sainte Foy has some of best snow and quality descents you will find in France. Ask any Val D'Isere, Tignes or Les Arcs ski instructor - Where do you ski or ride on your day off? - and they will undoubtedly say: Sainte Foy!

Beginner Skiing in Sainte Foy:
The beginners have great potential here due to the lack of crowds and the great network of easy runs that will have your confidence boosted from day one. You cannot get lost either because all intermediate and beginner runs lead back down to the same mountain base point. This is great for allowing the faster skiers and riders to go off and enjoy the odd fast run without losing much contact with their slower (or better) halves! There is even a free drag lift for the absolute beginners and a fantastic non-pressured atmosphere for families and novices to learn in.

Sainte Foy is an elegant mountain resort with only a very few restaurants and a couple of lively bars. There is a pool and sauna that can be accessed in resort for a small cost.

Chalet Bonhomie:
This is a 10 bed premium ski chalet which was newly built and finished in December 2003. It has a wonderful location in the charming resort of Sainte Foy. Chalet Bonhomie, (which incidentally means "good natured"), is situated just 50 yards from the slopes and bars and has beautiful views over the Tarantaise valley and the slopes of Sainte Foy.

Chalet Bonhomie has been finished in local stone and slate and light pine wood and to an exceptional standard. The lounge has lovely deep sofas, an open hearth and vaulted ceilings exposing natural wooden beams.The balcony overlooks the slopes and the internal decor of the chalet is modern and minimalist mixed with local Tarantaise architecture and wonderful features: such as, textured walls and under floor heating.

Each bedroom has either an ensuite shower and sink or it's own private bathroom. The bedrooms all have balconies overlooking the Tarantaise valley and the top family room looks out over the beginner ski slopes. The bedroom decor is again modern mixed with older local styles, each bedroom has Axminster carpet and beautifully finished oak joinery. The walk to the lifts is via steps that are approx 50 metres long.
