OVO Network promotes ‘Six Of The Best’ Hidden Summer Chalets
Exclusive Chalet Rental Specialist, OVO Network, boasts over 150 high-end chalets across the French and Swiss Alps - including the Aravis, Espace Diamant, Evasion Mont Blanc, Grand Massif, Chamonix Mont Blanc and for the first time this summer, in the Valais, Switzerland.
OVO Network has selected six of these chalets, for their stunning, off the beaten track alpine locations -perfect for a summer get-away.
Louis Andrews, Director of OVO Network comments, “The Alps are no longer just for winter holidays. Almost every alpine village offers an incredible range of summer activities, from hiking and cycling to wild swimming and paddle boarding.
“Between 2018 and 2022 our summer business has grown by 49%, as holidaymakers look to escape the city and busy beach resorts and try somewhere a little different. Here they get a mountain escape where they can completely ‘switch off’, be close to nature and try sports and activities that offer special memories such as paragliding, canyoning or following in the tracks of the Tour de France.
“All of our chalets offer plenty of opportunities to relax and enjoy precious family time. Our owners pride themselves on the facilities they provide for their guests - everything from hot tubs and cinema rooms to swimming pools are on offer. And for those guests that have to work during their holiday, many of our properties offer dedicated work spaces.”
