Samoens
Samoens is a traditional French village in Haute Savoie and is only 80kms from the nearest airport in Geneva. The village remains unspoilt and does not have high rise concrete apartment blocks that are present in so many other French resorts. It flourishes all year round.
There is an abundance of opportunities for the out of doors enthusiast throughout the year making it a delightful holiday destination at any time. The area has a good snow record in winter and warm sunny summers. Its location also makes it a perfect base from which to explore the surrounding area with towns including Chamonix, Morzine and Annecy all within an hour's drive.
Couples, groups of friends and families of all ages will love this picturesque village with all it has to offer. Besides the many outdoor pursuits there is also an excellent choice of bars and restaurants tucked away in its narrow streets in which to relax and refuel after the exertions of the day. Many are traditional Savoyard in style and attract a mixed clientele of both locals and visitors alike.
If being on holiday in the Alps surrounded by true French character appeals, then Samoens is for you. For further information on Samoens go to www.samoens.com
