Chalet Ferme d’Elisa Begonia, La Rosiere

Chalet Begonia occupies the second floor of the Ferme d'Elisa building where Esprit runs four chalet apartments and is also the base for one of our resort Snow Clubs. If you're looking for all round convenience in terms of ski access and the proximity to our childcare, as well as family-friendly accommodation, the Begonia is a perfect choice for you.

There is a comfortable open plan dining and lounge area, complete with a large stone fireplace, beamed ceiling and large picture windows leading to the balcony, with fabulous views over the Tarentaise valley. The three family rooms have two separate sleeping areas, as well as their own en suite or private facilities. In addition there is a separate twin room between two of the suites, so it's perfect for larger family groups booking both for six.

Additional facilities within the building are shared with guests in the other three chalets with a children's snug on the upper floor, accessed via the central stairway. This room is unsupervised so please keep an eye on your children and remember to bring your family's favourite DVDs. The ski and boot room and a sauna are on the ground floor adjacent to our Snow Club base.

Meals

One of the joys of choosing a catered chalet or chalet hotel ski holiday is that you won't have to lift a finger in the kitchen, we take care of everything. Our staff prepare and serve breakfast, afternoon tea and a 3-course evening meal including wine and coffee six days a week.

On a staff day off, a continental breakfast is provided for you and in the evening it's a chance to enjoy some delicious local food in one of the resorts restaurants, ensuring you don't leave the Alps without your fill of Tarteflette, Local pasta or Fondue! Our Baby Listening / Child Patrol service allows you to enjoy your evening meal out, without the worry of looking after your kids.

We set high standards for our cuisine, by training our staff extensively before the season starts to ensure you'll enjoy every meal.

Breakfast

In all our properties breakfast is served buffet-style including a choice of cereals or porridge, cold meats, cheese and preserves, bread and croissants, fruit juices, tea and coffee and cooked options such as bacon, sausage, eggs and beans. On the staff day off, a continental style breakfast is laid out for you to help yourselves in all chalets whilst it is served as a buffet in our chalet hotels.

Afternoon Tea

Every day, apart from our staff day off, a home-baked cake and tea and coffee making facilities are laid out for you to help yourself when you return from the slopes. In all our chalet hotels, we also prepare a savoury treat to accompany the sweet ones.

Chalet evening meals

High Tea for all children under 11 is served between 5pm and 6pm. It is served as a 2 course healthy menu, tailored more towards children's tastes and puréed food is available for infants.  Parents are asked to accompany their children under 3, whilst 3-10 years old are supervised by our childcare team.

Adult dinner is at 7.30pm and comprises of 3 courses including an appetiser, main dish and dessert. The meal is accompanied by a prosecco apéritif and a choice of red, rose and white wines, culminating with tea or coffee.

A 3 course regional speciality menu is served as one of the 6 evening meals in chalets and the French menu includes charcuterie, goat's cheese salad, tartiflette and tarte tatin, accompanied by the prosecco apéritif and choice of wines.

Staff night off

On the staff night off, you and your family have the opportunity to eat out in one of the local restaurants. Ask our staff for any recommendations.  We also offer our Baby Listening/Child Patrol Service in all our chalets on staff night off and every evening in Chalets Corniche in Tignes and Romeo in La Rosière.

Family Dining

Many parents prefer to enjoy adult-only company over dinner but if it's important to you to eat dinner altogether as a family, we offer Family Dining in any chalet when you book the entire chalet for exclusive use. Dinner is then served from 6.30pm with the menu based on our adult dishes with some flexibility for the children's preferences. There is a supplement of £39 per child for Family Dining. Our Chalet Valentine in La Rosière offers family dining throughout the season, with no additional charge.

Alternatively, you may wish to consider staying with us in a chalet hotel where children aged 8 and above have the option of joining their parents at the adult dinner.
