Switzerland's Best Ski Chalet 2014

Full of surprises, Bella Coola has a beautiful old wood exterior, ultra-modern facilities, and bedrooms that transport you to the last days of the Raj.

Bella Coola’s sophisticated atmosphere, vast reception room and stunning antique furniture are unforgettable. A treasure trove of the rare and unusual, with Anglo-Indian four poster beds, flowing curtains and jewel bright throws. Bella Coola is also wired for sound and vision with a Crestron entertainment system and a media server.

Bella Coola has an open plan kitchen/dining room and living room/library linked by a central bar area. Both open out onto a large terrace with spectacular views across the Val de Bagnes towards the Dents du Midi. The double-height reception room is simply divine.

Through giant antique Indian gates lies a spectacular spa complex. Complete with massage jets and panoramic mountain views, there is also a large hammam and a spacious bar area.
