Hibernate in a haven with the strikingly cosy Apartment Durand. Winter may be renowned as wicked by many who prefer to celebrate summer. Still, for those who understand the enchanting appeal of the colder months, you'll find this blissful winter utopia a place of serenity and adventure in equal measure.

Located in the heart of Courchevel, the property itself is decorated in a recognisable mountain style but with all of the modern comfort and sophistication you'd desire. The apartment is located on the garden level and benefits from the serene setting of the neighbouring village and offers a terrace with rustic views. Sit and enjoy the surrounding nature with a book or a warming cup of cocoa.

Ideal for a party of five, the property boasts 61sqm. Bestowed with a double bedroom, triple bedroom and living space, the apartment creates a den-like feel. A self-catering holiday, you can enjoy cooking up all sorts of delicacies in the communal kitchen. The space is easy to occupy and has the atmosphere of being like a retreat and a sanctuary, making it the ideal place to withdraw from the wider world. It's effortless to feel at home here.

Pure Scandinavian design is at work here. You'll find purposeful lines warmed by light and airy colour. The living space opens through a bay window, exposing a large east-facing terrace. You'll also have your ski room and garage. 

The space is simple and inviting yet with muted grey colouring contrasting with the gentle and warming wood. The light fixtures illuminate the space, and the bedrooms are the ideal environment to float off to sleep gently. The exterior of the property itself is truly mesmerising and charming.

You're perfectly placed to take the nearby Praz cable car into Courchevel, which takes approximately six minutes. You can then enjoy the adrenaline of the three valleys before returning to your enchanting property. If you enjoy exploring and indulging in local village life, numerous shops and family-friendly restaurants make this a charming place to whittle away some time. 

• Courchevel flaunts a radiant apres-ski scene, but it has yet to be known for its nightlife. If that's your preference, you may wish to consider another resort.
• The area is popular with families and is well set up to entertain them, but please ensure you keep an eye on all children during your stay.
• If travelling with babies or infants, you can notify the property in advance to ensure that highchairs and baby cots can be provided and set up before you arrive.
