Hi Ralph,

Just wanted to send a quick note from Sandra and I to thank you for being our host on our skiing holiday in January.

The Chalet hosts Jeremy and Rene were fantastic. They are such a lovely couple and a credit to you.
I have been coming skiing in private chalets for many years now, and I can honestly say that we have never had food of such quality and as skilfully prepared as that by Jeremy. I am really not just saying that. Everything was so well thought out and delicious.

See you in a couple of weeks – I’ll buy you all a beer.

Hey Ralph,

Just wanted to say thank you for an awesome holiday. Everyone had a really
lovely time and the hot tub is definitely worth the extra hassle. Its such
a luxury to have it!

The food was amazing too and Renee and Jeremy were nice too.

Also thank you for storing our goods in the cave, looking forward to coming
back out for Charity day!

See you again soon!

Hi Ralph

Just wanted to drop you a line to say a huge thanks to Adam and Suzanne for doing a

great job of looking after us so well last week. The food and service

really was exceptional, they even made the sun come out for our last

day!!

We look forward to returning next year

Dear Ralph

Just a quick note to say how much I enjoyed the stay at the chalet. Suzanne and Adam were excellent hosts and both extremely conscientious.

Adams cooking was superb and evident when I got on the scales! I will definitely recommend the chalet in future and perhaps even return.

With thanks

Ralph

Just getting back into the swing of things and wanted to thank you once again for everything that you did to accommodate us and make out skiing break so special.

Having tried pretty much every way to put a skiing holiday together, I feel that this year we got it right. It was so convenient to have transfers and particularly the packed lunches included, in fact all we had to focus on was skiing!

The location is perfect and Carolyn and Stephan are amazing hosts. The chalet and your hosts truly delivered everything that we wanted and more. The hot tub was the icing on the cake and provided the perfect way to unwind after a day on the slopes.

All the best for the rest of the season and we all hope to see you again next year.

Regards

Hi Ralph,

Just a quick note to thank you for a fantastic week. The weather was incredible and the arrangements for the holiday ran like clockwork.

Suzanne and Adam are probably the best chalet hosts I have met and were exceptional in ensuring we were well fed and watered all week. The food was really excellent and the chalet was always spotlessly clean – even when Suzanne was feeling so poorly she still insisted on cleaning all the bedrooms and mopping the floors, even after I told her to leave them and get herself off to bed!! That’s dedication that you don’t often find!! They are very friendly and personable which enhanced the dynamics of our group greatly.

I’ll be in touch when we have more of a plan for next year. You may be seeing Tim and Kelly later this season if there are some good deals to be had – they’ve got the skiing bug!

Dear Ralph,

We just wanted to thank you for the very enjoyable stay in le Praz this

week. We loved the convenience of the location, the comfort of the chalet,

and particularly the excellent food and hospitality provided by Suzanne and

Adam - they are top chalet hosts, and we would highly recommend them.

Please also pass on our appreciation to them.

We all had a really good time, and may well come back again next year, if

the chalet is available.

Best regards,

I would just like to say what a fabulous time we had in La Tania. Carolyn and Stefan are brilliant hosts. The food, chalet and hospitality was excellent, they worked so hard and nothing was too much trouble for them, you are really very lucky to have them, we all had a really fabulous time.

Hopefully we will be able to get out there again sometime in the future.

Hi Ralph,

I just wanted to write to say how much we enjoyed our stay at Chalet Pommat. The chalet was very comfortable and Stefan and Carolyn were fantastic hosts and cooks. We all had a fantastic holiday and would definately recommend Freeride Republic to others. Thank you.

Dear Suzanne and Adam,

Just a quick note to thankyou both again for your hospitality at the chalet . We all had a great time, there is nothing quite like coming of the slopes knowing that the chalet is lovely and clean, and that we can look forward to great food served up by really lovely hosts. It is no exaggeration to say that your food is the best that we have had in a chalet.

I hope the rest of your season goes well for you.

Happy memories,

hello Ralph

Not long home - had a good journey, all went very smoothly. Fiona and MIke are still on the road but they should be home in about an hour from now.

We have had a lovely holiday. Stefan and Caroline are the best chalet hosts we have had and the food was the best we have had on a chalet holiday. Caroline's cakes for afternoon tea were like having birthday cake every day, they really were delicious. We really enjoyed having the chalet for our family group - the first time we have done this, it was lovely. Pommat is a very nice chalet in a good location and we have been very well looked after, just what we all needed.

Many thanks

Best wishes

Margaret on behalf of everyone.

Hi Ralph,

Thank you for our weekend at La Tania Dec 2010, we all had a fab time. Everything went very smoothly from the time we arrived in Geneva to the time that we flew home.

Steph and Carolyn were outstanding hosts looking after us all very well and the food was great too.

I am already being asked to try and organise another trip in the New Year so if I can get a group together I will give you a shout.

Thanks again.

Hope you all have a great Christmas and New Year.

Dear Ralph,

A very belated good bye as I did not get the chance to do so in person! And a big thank you for a fab holiday! Helen was great! Good food, good chalet in a good location and we were incredibly lucky (I think!) with the weather!

Thank you for everything! We will try to get our act together for next year and will be in touch asap. In the meantime, feel free to keep us posted on the third chalet if it comes on board.

All the best,

Hi Ralph

Thanks for a great holiday. The chalet is perfect for smaller groups - there aren't many 8 person chalets around. Helen was the perfect hostess. Travelling with young children can be a hassle but you provided all we needed and made the whole holiday very relaxing. Hopefully see you next year.

The Johnstons and the Browns had a great week in chalet Pommat. Many thanks. It was ideal for us and the chalet was as good and convenient as described on the website (that isn’t always the case!). Sunday to Sunday worked a treat, too.

Helen was an excellent hostess, and Ralph was both helpful and flexible, and between them they made sure the holiday ran smoothly.

A great way to access the 3 valleys, and would definitely consider coming back for more of the same. Thanks again.

Stayed at the Chalet Pommat. Really nice Chalet, Helen (Chalet Host) was really friendly. Great value and well worth the money!

Hi Ralph

Thanks for a great week at chalet Chardon Blanc. The food and hospitality was great; Nicola looked after us superbly. Your chalet is in a great spot and very easy to get to 1850 on the gondola even with the kids! We loved the Wii console, the Sky TV and the WiFi was super fast as well.

See you again soon

Thank you very much from all of us for the great service that we had during our stay at the Chalet Chardon Blanc in Le Praz last week. We had a fantastic break with great weather and superb food prepared by Rob. We all agreed that 98% was a fair rating for the whole experience.

Hey Ralph

Thats us all back at our desks feeling really rather sorry for ourselves !!!!

I just wanted to say thank you to yourself and Rob for making our holiday a fantastic one. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the location and accommodation of the chalet was just perfect. It was also really kind of you to take us out to La Tania and pick us up from Meribel for the Rond Point experience, something I am sure we will all be talking about for a while to come oh and not forgetting the introduction to Absinthe which I am pretty sure that Keith was cursing whilst waiting for pick up on Saturday morning ha ha.

Have a great rest of season.

Many thanks again

I would be happy to recommend your chalet operation to other skiing friends that were not with us on this occasion..we had a great stay which was fantastic value for money in a stunning chalet . The Wii console was a great touch for the family..

Just a quick email to thank you all at the Freeride Republic for a wonderful holiday. I keep receiving little notes from members of our party saying what a wonderful time they all had. Thanks for coming to pick us up at Lyon - after our 3 am start that day we were all very pleased to see you. We wish you a successful season and if our numbers remain the same for next year we would certainly consider using Chardon Blanc again. Thanks again

Hi Ralph,

We stayed in this chalet for a week during the January holidays and had an absolute ball! We would HIGHLY recommend The Free Rider Republic, very friendly & very professional. The chalet was just perfect… cosy and warm, spacious, clean, great location and fabulous food and service for the price. We were 9 friends and had a memorable stay there, we would definitely go again. Thank you!!
