Meribel is a very pretty resort, with strict building regulations to keep it looking authentic. It is made up of various villages with a great mixture of mega-buck chalets and in places still some working cow sheds. Situated in the heart of the 3 Valleys, probably the largest inter-linked ski area in the world. Sitting pretty between Courchevel and the valley of Belleville (Val Thorens & Les Menuires) it is in the best possible location.
Easy access being aprox 1.5 hour drive from Lyon airport and 2 from Geneva though this can take longer during busy times. The closest air port is Chambery about 1Hr. The nearest big town is Moutiers where there is a train station - you can come by sleeper train from London.
