One thing is sure: When deciding to holiday in France the Savoir- vivre must be good and travelling to the Les Fermes de Marie in Megève, in the Mont Blanc region of Haute-Savoie, you will find a destination where all your expectations come true.
Not only is getting there easy and comfortable. After approximately an hour flight from most Northern European cities you arrive at the rather small airport of Geneva. We love Switzerland for the being so well organised. You get what you want at your fingertips, starting from the smart rental car services to the quick way onto the beautiful highway going up the French Alps to Megève.
AUTHENTIC ARCHITECTURE: Just imagine that all nine chalets of the Les Fermes de Marie had been dismantled, every piece of wood numbered and then reassembles on concrete frames within the heritage and the tradition of the area. That is to our opinion a very advanced sustainable living concept, created in 1989.
Megève is a traditional mountain resorts with a great history. Parisians, Swiss and some English love to spend their skiing holidays here.
Not only for the great slopes and authentic village of Megève but also for the variety of Chalets you can rent. The Chalet style is significant for the area and the Les Fermes de Marie built its international reputation upon their Chalet lifestyle with 30 private and serviced Chalets to rent.
The Sibuet family are known for their unique hospitality concepts that make the guest enjoy an authentic, family style on the highest level. It is all about well-being. Whether it’s a treat for the eyes, the delicious homemade food or the visual language of cosiness Madame Jocelyne Sibuet has created over the years to define a signature style for the Maisons et Hôtels in France and lately also in St. Barth.
MOUNTAIN LIFESTYLE: The warmth and at the same time roughness of an alpine interior is completed when the materials, textures and colours reflect nature and environment in a well-balanced way inside. The mix of materials and light is in perfect harmony at Les Fermes de Marie.
We travelled to Megève just before Christmas and got inspired by the essence of the hotel and the village of Megève. Here are all the good things you can expect from this winter (and summer) destination.
YOU EAT HOW YOU FEEL: A main aim at all Sibuet Maisons et Hôtels is the fine eating which has an authentic way of cooking and presenting mostly organic food, harvested from artisanal farms and makers of the area. You will be indulged in the most authentic tastes and traditional mountain cuisine.
THE EYE EATS: Therefore, the entire ceramic and porcelain is already a celebration of French table culture.
WHERE ARE YOU?: Every corner of the chalet will remind you that you are in one of the most beautiful parts of the French alps. At the beginning you might think that it is slightly over decorated. But after a day you will realize that it is exactly that décor that allows you to relax and recharge.
PURE ALTITUDE: The Les Fermes de Marie spa is all about the essence and force of mountain plants, advanced skin care technology and letting go. You might want to have a true natural experience in their mountain sauna and outdoor jacuzzi or just daydream in their cocooning lounge. The benefit of their own beauty skincare brand PURE ALTITUDE makes it easier to find the skincare and treatment that gives you the energy of the Alps and protects you against the roughness of the weather.
GETTING LOST IN TIME is easy at the Les Fermes de Marie every corner invites you to escape every day’s stressful lifestyle habits.
CHEESE & HAM comes only from organic , local producers. Everything tastes just deliciously.
THE LATEST ADDITION is the L’Épicerie des Fermes, a grocery store in the heart Megève. The Sibuet family has sourced the best French, Italian and Savoyard products in addition to a wine cellar. Here you can find also products you will be served at the Hotels & Maisons Sibuet. Food shopping is a must before you return back home.
When in Megève we suggest having dinner at the MONT BLANC Restaurant “Les Enfants Terribles”. They are known for their fine selection of French classics in combination with Peruvian Ceviche and French cuisine with a twist.
If you are a fan of a meaty cuisine have a dinner at The Beef Lodge Restaurant at the Sibuet’s. third hotel, The Lodge Park. You will find everything from age dried meat to tapas and burgers.
