Chalet Le Petit Mazot ...
This 4-star chalet is a real find for a family or two couples wanting their own tranquil space not too far from all the action.
Sleeping four people, it’s rare to find such a delightful private property for a small party. Not only do you have your own detached chalet, but there is also a delightful outdoor seating area which is perfect for catching the last of the sunshine.
The location is perfect too - right opposite the Nant-Bossonet button lift yet on a quiet road, just a few minutes walk from the popular village of La Clusaz, where you’ll find a great choice of restaurants, bars and shops.
Le Petit Mazot means the little shed, and although that is how this chalet started its life, it has now been extended and transformed into a warm and welcoming home which makes an ideal base for a holiday in the beautiful Aravis mountains.
About the property ...
The picture-perfect Chalet Le Petit Mazot is the ideal choice for a family or small group of friends looking for their own place in the mountains.
It sleeps four persons in two double bedrooms. The cosy sitting room has a flat-screen television and DVD player. Unique artwork and design details make this a very special place to stay.
The modern kitchen is exceptionally well-equipped, with every item you’d expect to find, as well some you wouldn’t, such as a grill stone! There’s a also a separate laundry with a washing machine and tumble-drier.
Outside there’s a delightful shaded seating area, perfect for relaxing on a hot summer night, and a brick-built barbecue.

Guest reviews
“Warm and Welcoming Chalet”
Beautiful chalet, very friendly and welcoming. Perhaps just missing a fireplace.
“Cozy and Thoughtful Retreat”
Beautiful small chalet, very comfortable, thoughtfully designed, and well equipped, with many welcoming spaces and good sunlight exposure. Well located, slightly away from the village but still close. Perfect hospitality and impeccable cleanliness.
“Peace and Nature Just Steps from the Center”
Chalet close to the center, yet far enough to enjoy peace and quiet. Quite well located for nearby hikes.

The OVO Network Review
Chalet Le Petit Mazot is a beautiful two-storey chalet for four guests, with two bedrooms and a bathroom.
It's in a great location, in a quiet road near the lift and just a short walk from the centre of La Clusaz.
Developed from a former storage building, it's now a really well-appointed chalet, with a cosy living room and a good-sized kitchen/dining area, as well as a separated laundry room.
The two double bedrooms share a shower room.
There's a surprising amount of outside space at this well-designed chalet, with a large balcony on the first floor and several seating areas on the ground floor, including a dining area and a beautiful terrace just off the living room with built-in seating.

From the owner
Ludovic M.
“A “Mazot” was originally a type of small Savoyard shed built on agricultural land - this particular one was only 16m2!
Traditionally, mazots weren’t used as living spaces but as safe places to store the family’s precious goods and belongings such as cereals, the harvest, seeds for the coming year, Sunday best clothing and shoes, paperwork etc. Mazots were always located a distance away from the main building to keep them safe from the risk of fire.
The mazot which became the chalet “Petit Mazot” was built in 1851 by a man named François Clavel. 100 years later it was transferred onto a concrete base measuring 5m x 6m in order to provide solid foundations before it was turned into a proper house.
Today Le Petit Mazot is still owned by my family.
For a few years now we’ve been rebuilding it; we’ve enlarged it and refurbished it to turn it into a cosy and unique pretty mountain chalet with thoroughly modern equipment.
