Chez Xavi occupies a forested position above Briançon, balancing privacy with genuine convenience. The old town — a UNESCO-listed medieval citadel with restaurants, bars, and shops along Rue Centrale — is a five-minute walk away. The Télécabine du Prorel, which opens onto the wider Serre Chevalier ski area, is fifteen minutes on foot; an afternoon chauffeur service returns guests from the lift base to the chalet in four minutes. For those travelling by rail, Briançon station is approximately one kilometre from the property. The surrounding area includes the Pont Le Shappe and historic parkland within easy reach. As a ski-in/ski-out property, the chalet also offers direct piste access, making it a practical choice for groups who want flexibility in how they move between the mountain and the village.

Sun-drenched tree-lined skiing and historic Alpine villages in the Southern French Alps.
Serre Chevalier is one of the largest ski areas in France, uniquely spanning four distinct base areas along the Guisane Valley: the historic UNESCO World Heritage town of Briançon, and the traditional Alpine villages of Chantemerle, Villeneuve, and Le Monêtier-les-Bains. Known for boasting 300 days of sunshine a year, the resort perfectly blends natural beauty with vast, diverse terrain and authentic French mountain culture. The resort is famously celebrated for its extensive tree-lined skiing, with countless pistes winding through ancient, atmospheric larch forests. This not only provides beautiful scenery but also excellent visibility during snowy weather. Above the tree line, the terrain opens up into vast bowls and high-altitude ridges, offering breathtaking panoramas of the spectacular Écrins National Park and superb off-piste opportunities. Holding the prestigious 'Famille Plus' certification, Serre Chevalier goes out of its way to accommodate families with excellent beginner zones, dedicated children's areas, and off-slope activities. Beyond skiing, the natural thermal baths at Le Monêtier-les-Bains and the historic Vauban fortifications of Briançon offer exceptional downtime options, making it a well-rounded destination for all types of winter holidaymakers.
The terrain offers an impressive 250km of linked pistes, heavily featuring atmospheric, undulating runs through majestic larch forests. Intermediates and advanced skiers will love the rolling red runs and expansive high-altitude bowls, while experts can access challenging steeps and extensive off-piste freeride zones near the Pic de l'Yret.
Situated near the Italian border, this region combines high Alpine peaks and excellent snow records with Mediterranean sunshine.
