Red Fir Chalet

Red Fir Chalet is a self-catered chalet in Megève, sleeping 8 in 4 bedrooms. The nearest lift, Chamois Gondola, is about 550m away, so plan on a bus or a drive to the snow each morning. It has a sauna and a fireplace. A log fire on Christmas Eve is most of the reason people book a chalet over an apartment.

Megève scores 20 out of 100 on our Christmas Snow Score, with the village at 1113m. That makes it more weather-dependent than most in late December, which is worth weighing before you book.

Sleeping 8 is the classic family or small-group size. Pets are allowed, so the dog can come for Christmas too. It is self-catered, so you cook — including on the 25th. That suits groups who want to eat on their own schedule.

It is not ski-to-door, so factor in getting to the lifts each morning. Resort supermarkets keep short and unpredictable hours over Christmas and many close entirely on the 25th. Order ahead or shop on arrival. Check the bed layout and what is included (linen, towels, final cleaning) on Booking.com before you book — Christmas week is often sold as a fixed seven nights.
