For ski-in/ski-out access & genuine Alpine charm, spend a few nights in the Le Rascard, one of the most charming little hotels in Monte Rosa, just off the del Bosco piste in the tiny hamlet of Frantze. The original old stone and timber grain storage building has been split into cosy bedrooms, each with kitchenette, private bathroom and sweeping views of the Val d’Ayas, warmed by the scent of wood and hay from the original beams and roof, not to mention it has a restaurant attached.
