La Rosière - The Village

The village of La Rosière is well-kept French secret. A purpose built resort, it has a traditional rustic Savoyard feel with low rise chalet-style accommodation built mostly in wood and stone. The area is known for the famous St Bernard dogs which can still be found in the resort today.

Our chalet is in the area known as Les Eusherts in La Rosière which is a 10 minute walk away from the main La Rosière village (or a ride on the free bus service between the two) and is a self contained area with direct lift access (only 200m away from our chalet), a bowling alley and ice skating rink complex which is due to open for Christmas 2007 together with a range of shops

La Rosière has won the accolade of Famille Plus Montagne which is only awarded to resorts who specialise in welcoming families and their children. There are lots of events throughout the season and non skiers have marked walks and can try ice skating together with bowling and a trip to the fitness centre with saunas, Jacuzzi etc, There is also a  cinema in the village that shows English films and non skiers can browse in the shops in the main centre of La Rosière.
Except for the chalet staffs night off you will really only eat out on the slopes and you can choose to eat in France or in Italy! For your evening out, there are over a dozen restaurants in La Rosière, serving very reasonably priced meals ranging from pizzas to Savoyard specialties to gourmet food. Our chalet hosts will, if required, make the bookings for you on their night off and we have copies of the menus in the chalet so you can preview them. La Rosière also has a range of bars for après-ski including the well known ‘Petit Danois’, and there is also a nightclub in the village which is open to 4am
