    Frequently Asked Questions

    General

    Winter

    • Ideally, the earliest time will be 4pm but we appreciate flights and travel plans might mean you arrive earlier than this. If this is the case we will happily welcome you and store your luggage until your room is available.

    • Our professional chefs cater for all dietary requirements, we just need to know what they are in advance of your arrival.

    • The Farmhouse is in a fantastic location. We are a 5 minute walk to the Tourist Office which is in the heart of Morzine.

      However, we are fortunate to be on a quiet road which is 200 metres from the local pistes.

    • We have a large private car park right outside The Farmhouse for exclusive use by our guests.

    • For childcare we recommend Cheeky Monkeys . We have been working with Sharon and her team for many years.

      Alternatively the village creche is very good and happens to be only 100 meters away.

      Both of these options need to be booked well in advance.

    • We can provide both high chairs and travel cots should you require them.

    • We ask that you check out of your room by 10am. Again, if your travel plans mean you are not leaving Morzine until later in the day, we will happily store your luggage for you until you plan to leave.

    • Yes, you can and this often happens. We can sleep up to 30 guests depending on the final room arrangements. For a quote please email us.

    • You can book one room or multiple rooms. It just depends on our availability!

    • There is a great creche/nursery literally a stone’s throw away from The Farmhouse.
      L’Outa has a strong reputation in Morzine and the best thing to do is contact them directly.

    • Yes, they do.

    • This is a local tourist tax which is payable on your departure. The current rate (as at January 2021) is €2.30 per adult (18yrs or older) per night.

    • In the Winter months our prices are quoted on a half board basis and include:

      • A cup of tea or coffee brought to your room each morning
      • A full cooked breakfast
      • Farmhouse minibus service to and from the slopes in the morning and afternoon
      • Afternoon tea and cakes back at The Farmhouse
      • Canapés before dinner
      • A four course evening meal with wine, followed by coffee and chocolates at the bar
      • Bath robes and slippers provided during your stay
      • Luxury bathroom products by L’Occitane
    • We can organise your ski passes and issue them from The Farmhouse.

      There are two main ski passes to choose from. The Morzine/Les Gets and the full area Portes du Soleil. The first is the local Morzine/Les Gets region which is great skiing but can be limiting if you are strong skiers. If you want to explore and have more of a ski around the region we would recommend the full Portes du Soleil (PDS) pass which covers 650 kms of piste and spreads over 12 resorts several of which are in Switzerland.

    • We offer a morning and afternoon shuttle service during your stay with us. Our drivers will be on hand to load your skis and whisk you off to the best location to start your day in the portes du Soleil.

    • Our guests often ask us what other activities are available for non skiers so we have listed some below for you:

      • Snow Shoeing
      • Lovely walks along the river or in the mountains
      • Cross Country Skiing
      • Ice Skating
      • Husky Sledding
      • Nordic Walking
      • Ski Doos
      • Ski Joering with horses
      • Ice Diving
      • Paragliding
      • Helicopter flight
      • Gym
      • Swimming
      • Aquariaz Water Park
      • Watching the Morzine Penguins the local Ice Hockey team
      • Enjoying the cafes, bars and restaurants in town or on the ski slopes where you can meet up with others in your party for lunch.
    • The Portes du Soleil is a wonderful ski area suitable for all levels of skiing from complete beginner to backcountry skiers.

      • Airport Transfers
      • Ski Passes
      • Ski Equipment
      • Ski Lessons
      • Child Care
    • If you require ski equipment we recommend All Mountain Rental who will offer you a 20% discount for booking online. They deliver the equipment to The Farmhouse, ensure everything is fitted correctly and pick it up at the end of your stay which avoids all the usual waiting in the actual ski shop.

    • For ski lessons we recommend you get in touch directly with the ski schools. They will require payment up front and will want to get a good understanding of your ability and what you would like to get out of your lessons.

    • The main consideration is whether you will base the children in Morzine or Avoriaz. This will determine how much skiing you can do around the whole area.

      If the children are in ski school all day and have lunch provided by the ski school then this is less important as you will have a full day to head off skiing yourselves. 

      If you are planning on meeting the children for lunch and you choose a Morzine ski school then you will likely have to ski in Morzine for the week. If they are based up towards Avoriaz or Les Lindarets you will be able to ski the greater area or into Switzerland and still meet them for lunch if this is the plan.

    How to Find Us

    We are a 75 minute drive from Geneva, and it is a straightforward journey from Geneva Airport or central railway station by one of the following options:
    • If you are flying into Geneva we can arrange transport up the mountain to The Farmhouse and back down again at the end of your stay with us.

      The journey time is approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes each way.

    • If you travel by car, you can find us by GPS / Waze. The Farmhouse, Mas De La Coutettaz, 429 Chemin de la Coutettaz, 74110 Morzine.

      The drive from Calais is approximately 9 hours. When you reach Morzine turn right just after the Renault garage onto the Avenue Joux Plane, the restaurant La Rotonde should be on your left. 

      Continue straight ahead past the ESF on your left then the ski shop Felix Ski on your right.
      Just after Felix Ski and before the round-about take the left turn, continue to the bottom of this short road, past La Outa and turn right. 

      You will see Le Mas de la Coutettaz, a large stone and wood house just ahead on the left. The name on the house is LE MAS DE LA COUTETTAZ, the original name and not “The Farmhouse” so take care to remember this when seeking us out. 

    • Cluse or Thonon les Bains are the nearest train stations. We can arrange transport up the mountain to The Farmhouse and back down again at the end of your stay with us.

      The journey time is approximately 45 minutes each way.
