Ski France has announced the launch of its newest residence, L’Orée du Bois: six chalet-apartments located in a peaceful part of La Rosière, at the crossroads of the Orée district and the Vieux Village. Its name, which translates as “Edge of the Woods,” reflects the tranquil setting, just a few minutes from the resort centre, offering peace alongside easy access to local amenities.
Designed in a traditional way using local materials, the chalet-apartments blend harmoniously with their surroundings and offer panoramic views over the Tarentaise Valley and surrounding peaks. A lift serving all five floors ensures convenience for all guests.
L’Orée du Bois features six spacious chalet apartments, designed for families and groups. Apartments range from three- to seven-bedroom layouts, sleeping eight to 14 guests. All are equipped with fully equipped kitchens and dining areas, comfortable bedrooms with quality bedding, ski lockers with boot dryers and large screen television and free Wi-Fi.
Two of the chalet-apartments feature private jacuzzis, while two others include electric fireplaces, adding an extra touch of comfort. Beds are made on arrival, with towels and linen provided, and end-of-stay cleaning is included.
L’Orée du Bois is offered on a self-catered basis, giving families the flexibility and independence to set their own schedule. Fully equipped kitchens make it easy to prepare children’s meals at convenient times, cater for fussy eaters and enjoy relaxed family dinners together.
La Rosière sits at 1,850 metres, in the heart of the Tarentaise Valley and at the gateway to the Vanoise National Park. The resort is part of the Espace San Bernardo, a Franco-Italian ski area where guests can ski across the border in a single day. The 152km of pistes cater to all levels, from Mont Valaisan’s challenging slopes for the adventurous, to gentle beginner runs and dedicated children’s zones.
Beyond skiing, La Rosière is packed with family activities. Options include sledging, ice skating, snowshoeing, paragliding and paintball, alongside wellness facilities for parents in need of some downtime. The resort also celebrates its Alpine heritage, with fun cultural nods such as the St. Bernard dog, the Alpine rescue icon.
A seven-night stay at Residence L’Oree du Bois departing 13 December 2025 costs £1,987 total based on eight sharing a two-bedroom chalet with an alcove on a self-catered basis. Flights, food, and transfers extra.
