The Oxford Chalet Service
When booking one of our recommended chalets you don’t just receive a luxurious chalet in a fantastic location, you also have exceptional service from their chalet teams throughout your stay. There’s a large list of services that you will normally find within our recommended chalets that keep them head and shoulders above the competition. This often includes champagne and canapés on arrival, breakfast, afternoon tea and a four-course dinner. Not to forget an open bar throughout your stay in many of the chalets we feature. Moving on from food, our guests will often receive a resort driving service. This is perfect in making sure that you can easily get to the ski lifts or to any planned dinner reservations. Though none of these are guaranteed with our recommended chalets, they are extremely likely – give us a call and ask what your chalet of choice can do for you!
