Our opinion
The apartment has a very light and airy feel about it. The finish is modern but still has a traditional charm. The possibility to add a fireplace is rare with apartments and would give an extra cozy feel to those post ski winter nights. Renard would be great for young professionals, using the third bedroom into an office or for a family using the converted cellar as a magical child's bedroom.

Location
Apartment Renard is located in Les Bossons. Hiking and biking paths are on the doorstep with a public bus stop less than 100m away. The apartment is in incredibly calm yet the autoroute is minutes away giving quick access to Chamonix centre and other transport towards Geneva.
