Megève's most classic hotel - Les Fermes de Marie - introducing first 'Eat Speak Love' programme
A highlight of the 5-night stay is lunch at the L’Alpage des Fermes de Marie – a private high-mountain cabin looking out over the Beaufortain mountain range. After a gentle hike through alpine pastures and along forest trails guests will be greeted with a house-made raspberry liqueur aperitif on the terrace of the Alpage, and a generous buffet lunch and barbeque.
