Because I'm going by myself I'd rather stay somewhere I'm familiar with and venture out from there if I feel like it (Alp d'Huez etc.).
I've been quite a few times with mates but circumstances dictate that I'm probably gonna go solo this year.
As such I'm after accommodation just for me - I don't want to camp because of bike security.
Any suggestions? Not too keen on le Boomarang...
Cheers!
Can you draw? 😉
When do you want to go, how little do you want to pay, and does it have to be Les Gets rather than Morzine?
We camp in a layby 300 yards down the road from Lac Montriond. Free, and you can use the toilet facilities and showers at the lake.
Alpine elements are pritty cheep . I stayed at the hotel Christiana last year as i was on my own as well , Its right on the Chevannes lift station .. Full Board Flights Transfersand my bike 450 quid .. Food were great as were the staff . might not be to everyones taste but could not fault them !
Go full pikey & join the other students doing a season in the car park next to the Champion in the centre of Morzine. Wash in the river.
I'm thinking early July and don't really want to spend more than £500 all in.
Defo no camping thanks! I like a nice bed and a decent shower!
Was looking at Christiana actually.
Happy with Morzine too.
Anyone want to share a lift / costs?? I'll be driving down in my V70 estate so loads of room!
I've stayed in a self catering chalet every time i've gone - 6+ yrs.
never paid more than £250 for two weeks stay.
If you're intent on driving down and solo you might struggle to do it in budget. If you only want a bed then apline elements is a good price as it includes flights however they have a pretty bad rep for service etc.
jollygoodalpineadventures/le sherpa are worth a check too, in Morzine, really nice place, good food etc and has a bar on site so easy to socialise with other folks staying.
prgmtb had one of the best offers I saw this year with BOGOF accomodation but it's a little way out or morzine. Definitely worth a check though.

Where are you driving from? Volvo estate????? Bikes on roof or in the boot? I could be interested but would have have to back end of July
Minty, I'm out there at that time, otherwise you could have had my chalet.
worth going here
http://www.morzinelets.com/get a load of mates together and have a good one!
He said he was going solo!
There's a couple of cheap hostels in Morzine
Rider's Retreat is dirt cheap too

Go towards the end of the season? Pretty sure Rider's Retreat was circa £80 for a week two years ago?
