As I write this, the sun is blazing through the window and it has been a ’shorts and flip flops day’ for me - there’s still two days of the season left and there is shed loads of snow high up. But today for me it really does feel like spring and it almost makes me feel chilly looking at these fantastic photos on Flickr by ‘citron bleu’.
Do remember that if you have any photos of Serre Chevalier that you would like to see on the site, just upload them to Flickr and tag them ’serre chevalier’ and you will see them here.
Meanwhile, go and look at the rest of this guys photos, they are fantastic!

 

MERSEYSIDE developer Paul Bolton has recruited another Liverpool property specialist to his new business developing hotel and leisure opportunities in France.

Mr Bolton, former chairman of Vermont Developments, is chairman of developer Space France which is working on several projects in the French Alps.

Space France has now appointed David Leathem, who worked with Mr Bolton at Vermont and housebuilder Charlton Homes, as finance director – and he says the company may look to develop projects in the UK.

Space France was set up last year by Mr Bolton with partners Perry Gamby, Ben Norrington and Ben Ancher.

Mr Leathem, who was finance director at Vermont, said: “Space France creates high quality leisure accommodation working alongside some of the world’s leading hotel and leisure brands. I’m excited to join the team and have been bowled over by the quality of the projects Space France is taking forward.

“I had a fantastic time working for Vermont and am proud of my contribution to projects like Sefton Street, which is going to be a great success in Liverpool.

“But this is a new challenge and I look forward to working with Paul on other schemes within a broader Space Group – including hotel and leisure projects in the UK.”

The company’s development portfolio includes four projects near Serre Chevalier, one of the largest ski resorts in the Alps.

It will soon start work on the £63m conversion of La Shappe, an 1840s silk mill in the town of Briancon. The building is being converted into a Ramada Resort with 176 rooms and suites, 70 lifestyle apartments, a spa, market and museum.

The project will take three years to build and the first phase of 176 apartments is already sold out.

Other projects in Briancon include a Days Inn, with 97 rooms and 100 apartments, and a Best Western with 59 rooms and suites. Space France also has a 52-room Best Western under development in the village of Chantemerle.

Mr Bolton and Mark Connor built up Charlton Homes and its city centre development arm Space before selling it to Irish builder McInerney Homes in 2002.

They founded Vermont in 2004. Mr Bolton stood down as a diector of Vermont last year but remains an investor.

Indeed it has been dumping loads of snow just lately, the Easter weekend was really spot on, albeit a bit cold. I love this photo, but I can’t quite place where it is.

Just a quickie to say the weather has been a bit iffy the last couple of days, ie. a bit rainy and not the snow we were expecting, but that all changed today.

 

You may only think of going to the Alps for your annual skiing or snowboarding holiday, but they also offer a beautiful destination and lots of sunshine for summer holidays too.  If you like mountain biking, cycling, walking, rafting or just want to relax in the scenic surroundings then it could be the place for you.  The ski lifts are open during peak summer months so you can take your bike or yourself up the mountains.

Ski Studio Alps is a great place to base yourself, near to shops, restaurants and the ski lifts.  The studio sleeps up to four people and has everything you need for a self catering holiday.  In the apartment block there is a bike storage room so you have somewhere safe to leave your bikes.  With prices starting from £130 a week you can’t go wrong!

• More details and photos of this apartment are here.

For more information please contact Carole Ward at Ski Studio Alps or call 07976 874185.

As you can see we just need to get a few more bookings for this apartment to finish of the season. If you are interested, please get in touch ASAP, these last few April weeks are going to go really quick!
